Great to hear Rebekah! An ideal base for the Great Ocean Road Running Festival Weekend, and the hot tub to ease legs afterwards too.

One small improvement

Was great except are pretty sure the spa filters had not been cleaned. We managed to clean them and dose spa and it was much better. Also some dishwasher tablets would have been useful.
