Beach Manor, Perth

The photos on the websites looked pretty good but when I checked in I was knocked over by this brilliant place, which is located on the edge of Scarborough Beach, one of the finest stretches of white sand in Perth, Western Australia. The atmosphere is extremely friendly without being overdone. Sitting in a comfortable lounge chair beside the pool, surrounded by palms and quality Asian artifacts, one gets the feel of the tropical Orient or Hawaii, a feeling that is complemented by the beach surroundings. It was a real treat to go down to the beach at sunset and watch the sun head for Africa. During my four day stay I met several fellow guests who had "escaped" from a large five star hotel and were just as impressed by Beach Manor as I was. I would recommend this rare pearl on Scarborough Beach to anyone who wants friendly, quality accomodation with a difference.

Beautiful rooms with ocean views and a great breakfast included in the price. The outdoor pool area is wonderful and has ocean views. A very relaxing place to be with cafes and shops along the Scarborough beach strip.

Had I known B&Bs were like this, it would be the only way I travel - and I travel a great deal. The accommodations are amazing, the location couldn't be better, and the hosts are some of the greatest people I have met. Do yourself a favor and stay at the Beach Manor B&B. Chris Ribbel San Diego, CA
