Sapphire Beach Hotels with Wi-Fi

The name suggested something slightly sophisticated with maybe French styled rooms but no. It’s an ordinary new 2 storey house with a lift to the upper level of guest rooms. The lift got us up but the owner told us it was broken for any self operated use. That wasn’t a problem. The room was small with outlook to the adjoining houses roof and clothesline. We were the only guests on the day so why put us in such a poor room. It was bland with a wall mounted TV. The bathroom is tight with a shower door that’s difficult to enter and exit. The bed was a queen and comfortable enough. We were tired after a long day driving from Sydney so just wanted to rest, watch TV and eat some takeaway food. We sat in the upstairs guest area, again with no view. The lighting everywhere is laboratory white LED downlights. They were uncomfortable so we turned off the over head ones and turned on the ones over the stair behind us. The owner then appeared and without a word turned off that light and turned on the ones above us. When told him why he launched into telling us how much he paid in power bills and so he turned off all “unnecessary” lights. We pointed out that we had no lights over us. He then said the light over the stair turned on a hall light downstairs. So I pointed out that we were paying $185 for the night to which he replied he didn’t get all that. Then straight away he offered to refund the tariff if we moved out. All over a light that would have cost 10 cents in power. We decided to stay. Too much trouble to change at the late hour but the incident kept me awake for hours. We left as quickly as possible in the morning without breakfast. What could have been an ok stay turned into a really unpleasant experience. Stay at Sansom Resort. Which I also have reviewed.

It’s a holiday cabin, it’s better to go in the summer, go out through a few small trees that are beaches, and lucky to see the dolphins. At night, I always feel that there are animals knocking on the door. There is always a sound.
