This is an amazing property, decorated in keeping with its era, which is a testament to the management and owners for its design and maintenance. The room was divine, with high quality linen, comfort of the bed and chaise, and the view is unsurpassed. I would highly recommend this motel as the best place to stay in Merimbula. Thankyou Hillcrest.
