I truly enjoyed my stay at Banksia Boutique Hotel & Spa. The ambiance felt like a charming home away from home, with friendly staff making sure I had everything I needed. However, breakfast on one morning didn't meet my expectations, which was a bit disappointing. Overall, I'd rate my experience quite highly and look forward to returning.

I had a lovely stay at the Banksia Boutique Hotel & Spa, where the warm and gracious staff made me feel right at home. The location is beautifully quiet, with a lovely garden, although it’s a bit outside the central district. My room was tastefully decorated and the breakfast offered a nice variety of hot dishes. However, I did experience a couple of issues with the water pressure during my stay.
