Our stay was brillliant. Thank you so much. What a collection of books! Whoever knew that Ian McEwan had written a short story about the beach? Our only difficulty was upon arrival. We looked at the display of Units shown on the Reception window and found ours missing, which was a little confusing. We'd probably be told in the correspondence where the Unit was situated on the property, but our first instinct was to use the Reception noice-board. Anyway, we found it and would love to return.

Ocean Grove Gem

It’s a cut above a caravan park, in an easy to access, small group of cabins. It feels like a well-appointed apartment and is close to the main beach. A great stay
