Top Alma Bay Hotel Reviews

Peppers Blue on Blue

Peppers Blue on Blue

8/10 Good
"Nice hotel in a good location. Very good sized 2 bed apartment. Shame the hotel doesn't have a gym but there are nice routes for a run right from the front door. If I was booking again I'd request a room with water / pool views. Our room had a lovely balcony but since it overlooked the main carpark and bottle shop we didn't really use it."
