Very convenient with only a short walk to main street, kiosk, shops, pub, beach and Foreshore caravan park where friends were staying. Clean and comfortable with good amenities. Beds were particularly comfortable. Dining space was small to share with 3 x adult kids; we made it work for a short getaway. Recommended as a great base to explore YP.

Pretty much perfect Porthole.

I thoroughly enjoyed my 2 week stay at the Porthole, it comes well equipped, it has a clean and functioning kitchen, with dishwasher, microwave and oven. If you are looking for somewhere quite, relaxing and decent, this is the place. Highly recommended.

Lovely property with great facilities. Everything you need is there and the kids loved the bunk beds! Slight issue with ants but other than that The Porthole was a delight to stay in.
