“Glenelg Motel sits pretty close to the beach, making it a practical base for families eager to hit the sand; its variety of room sizes is a real plus for larger groups. While some may find the decor a tad dated, the convenience of free parking and a location near Jetty Road's shops is undeniable, in my opinion.
