They were the sweetest couple who went above and beyond to accommodate our breakfast time since we needed to catch a flight so early! I will be forever thankful!

Staying at Bright on 5th was a real delight. Mary and Chris are the perfect hosts. They are warm and welcoming but do not encroach on your privacy. The room is more like a suite and is large and very comfortable. I could not enjoy breakfast due to an early start daily, but my delicious packed breakfast awaited me on time every morning. It is often the small gestures that make the experience perfect, for example, the warm water bottle to help with the chilled nights, the gown left in my room on my second stay, and the 'let us know when you arrive safely' because travelling in the dark and rain concerned them. As I mentioned, they do not encroach on your privacy, but they show that they care when it is needed. I highly recommend Bright on 5th for any business traveller who wants comfort, cleanliness, hospitality, convenience, privacy, security and a good night's sleep - it is truly a home away from home. I look forward to my third stay with Mary and Chris.

My 2nd visit to this home from home and over and above the exceptional welcome, superb rooms, showers , breakfast extradinaire, Mary and Chris then went even beyond what one expects by printing and scanning docs which I needed done urgently- not once but twice with no charge or hesitation. Furthermore as I had been once Mary asked when I booked if I would like to have a bottle of wine in the fridge- really this is service beyond the norm but then when I advised that I had a 7 am webinar and would not make breakfast, a tray of muffins and yoghurt arrived to place in my fridge for the morning. It’s honestly become my joyful place in PE- absolutely superb- you won’t be sorry, try it!!!

Great experience. Warm welcome from Mary & Chris who care for their guests. Excellent location, close to everything (beach, Ironman race start, shopping mall, running along the coast….). Nice & quiet!
