This is a great place for short stays, instead of a hotel or motel. Extremely quiet and peaceful overnight, lovely bed linen and towels, comfy bed, lots of space and the convenience of a well-appointed kitchen.

Our second stay at Alex Beach Cabins and Tourist Park. We booked a slightly larger cabin. The cabin itself was faultless. So clean, tidy & well equipped. The beds were very comfortable. Having The Alex Pantry within walking distance was also very helpful when we needed anything. A very well thought out tourist park.

This kind of service makes all the difference 😊. Our cabin w...
