Ships Bell used to be a hotel but it didn't make it so the rooms were all sold off as apartments. We have bought some of them and trying to revive it on unit at a time. It is a great place to live and it's a small town out of season and then a little crazy over the Christmas New Year period but still awesome.

Almost every guest says "Wow, it looks just like the pictures" and "What a stunning view". Most of the apartments are adjoining via the Balcony on the 2nd floor (as seen from the water) that all overlook the Harbour with the sea to the right. The standard rooms all have a Queen bed and a 3/4 sleeper fold-out couch which is suitable for another young adult or small children. The Family suites have 2 x Double beds and a 3/4 sleeper couch too. There are two great restaurants within 50m and a small convenience shop in the Port open during working hours. You can get coffee from a shop downstairs and there is a pub on the ground floor of the Chokka Block in the next building. We have a baby crib you may use on request. All the rooms have a kitchenette with fridge, microwave, induction hob cookers, toaster, kettle, iron and an ironing board. While summer has sublime weather with temps of 18 to 28 on most days degrees, winter can also have excellent days dispersed between not so great days - but it's never truly cold. The coldest we have measured is 9 degrees C. On one day in winter it could be cold as low as 15 degrees and then the next day 22 degrees C which is a pleasant experience in winter. The sea is relatively warm here. In summer the sea temp ranges from 22 to 25 degrees and in winter between 15 and 19 degrees C. The surfers use a 3/2mm wetsuit mostly.

St Francis Bay is small, friendly and welcoming. We have great food at various world class restaurants, 2 of them 50 meters from the apartments "Clive's Chokka Block" and "Mauros". Clive and Mauro are both world class chefs and the most friendly and welcoming people. Please say we sent you. We have everything you may need in town which is no more than 5km in any direction.
