Debbie's Place

Debbie's Place

10/10 Excellent
"Cannot fault Debbie's place! We were looking for a clean, comfortable and peaceful location... close to the Dolphins in Tin Can Bay and reasonably priced for two couples. It was close to Carlos Sandblow and within easy walking distance to the Surf Club, Pity we could only stay the one night...definitely a future holiday stay :)"

"Good value for the money, no air conditioning but fans worked well and the deck was pleasant. Had a good selection of dishes and utensils. Was a clean utilitarian unit and an easy walk to the beach and along the beach back to town (25 min flat beach walk). Solid basic condo and very friendly staff in town."
