Robert F.
The room had everything we needed, including plates and cutlery for breakfast, and it was spacious. The bed was very comfortable, and both the lounge and chair were supportive. What stood out even more than the superb location was how considerate and friendly Pauline and Peter were. They sorted out an issue with a practical solution, and greeted us with a smile whenever we saw them. We had a lovely two-night stay at The Dorsal Boutique Hotel. We’d recommend it and hope to return soon.

The location made it easy to get to the beach, cafés, shops and walking paths. I loved waking to the sound of the waves and watching the sunrise from my room. The view alone made the stay memorable. My room was bright, clean and comfortable, with what I needed to relax. The staff were welcoming and ready to help. I had a wonderful visit and would happily come back.
Donna M.
The room had lovely ocean views and a balcony where we could sit and watch people. There’s lift access from the basement car park, too. The manager was awesome and gave us a discount for our 40th anniversary. I thought I’d love hearing the ocean as I slept, but it was noisy, haha. Mother Nature at her best. I couldn’t fault the stay and would definitely return.

The honey salmon was outstanding, and The Dorsal remains my little peaceful getaway. I always enjoy staying here because the staff are consistently warm, professional and willing to go above and beyond. Mahesh is especially welcoming and accommodating. Highly recommended.

We had a birthday lunch at the restaurant, and Mahesh and his team made the service fantastic. They were amazing and hilarious. Our room was very good, with an excellent ocean view, and the receptionist was really helpful when we checked in late at night. Appreciate it, we’ll definitely be back ☺️
