I didn't have high hopes for the Edgewater, but it turned out great. The room was not huge, but was well laid-out and perfectly adequate. The best feature at the Edgewater is that the rooms seem to have just been renovated, so everything looks good and works -- the bathroom in particular was very good, roomy with an excellent shower.... more

A good motel, and can't fault really considering the manager gave two of us family sized room for price of studio room :) The price was great as was the location. The hotel was dated, but it was clean and suited us on a short stay. more

A lovely motel just a couple of minutes walk from the town, and across the street from the beach/sea. We had a very spacious/clean two bedroom apartment.

The room was spotlessly clean with cooking facilities. Great big shower and the owner was lovely to deal with. A great bonus was complimentary laundry for the... more

My husband I spent one night at the Edgewater and found our room to be adequate, with a nice view across the main road to the bay. This is not a luxury motor lodge, but it is clean, well maintained and well located to walk to shops and restaurants or across the main road to a wonderful walking path along... more

This is a really great motel, well appointed, clean and right on the edge of the sea. The staff were very friendly and extremely helpful. There was free use of barbeque facilities as well as easy walking to local shops and places of interest. Easy car parking and access. Highly recommended. more
