Charming boutique stay with friendly staff, beautiful gardens, and vibrant parrots. Great location within walking distance to attractions, shops, and restaurants. Host was a perfect guide, cooking delicious breakfasts and organizing tours. Attention to detail and personalized service made us feel at home.

Nothing that I didn't like.

Town Beach Cafe, located within 20 minutes' walk, is a good dining option. Nice comfy base for vacation in Broome. It is next to the airport:)))

a bus stop is across the street. it made our trip to broome a relaxing experience. breakfast was wonderful - a great selection food.

We had a fantastic stay at this place! The location in lush tropical gardens was absolutely breathtaking. The service was top-notch, from the car hire to the housekeeping. We felt pampered and taken care of the entire time. The room amenities were excellent, with ironing facilities, heating, air conditioning, and a mini-bar. We loved spending time on the balcony, enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The breakfast was delicious and the staff was so friendly and accommodating. We would highly recommend this venue to our family and friends.

Everything. Continental breakfast had a great choice of food, and the quality excellent. Rooms perfect, ambience wonderful, location great! I liked it all!

The relaxed charm of the gardens and old Broome style houses. The friendliness and helpfulness of staff. The capacity to walk into town at night and access a range of restaurants.

The airconditioning was too cold and we were unable to turn it down.

We had the most wonderful stay at Mcalpine House. The Garden Suite we stayed in was exactly as pictured, with beautiful decor and plenty of space. We loved lounging on the sunbed in our private decked courtyard surrounded by old trees. The hotel itself is beautifully maintained, with lush tropical gardens and many secluded spots to relax. The owners, Marilynne and Gary, made us feel truly welcome and took great care of us throughout our stay. We can't wait to return to this must-stay hotel.

The friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. I knew the trip and stay in Broome would be difficult, as I had the daunting task to take my brother back home for burial and also sort out his home and personal details. It was lovely to be able to come back to my room, have a drink and relax outside - gather my strength and thoughts before I continued on this journey for my brother. I am so thankful that my wife Lorna booked me into the Pearler Verandah room for seven days. It was the best place I could have had chosen for me. The breakfasts were so delicious and it set me up for the morning. Thank you to all the staff who helped me through the week.

I cannot find any fault in my stay at Pinctada McAlpine House. I would like to mention that on your web site you advertise that breakfast is included in the price and this is not the case. This did not worry me as I still had to have the delicious breakfast that was being served.

The tropical oasis in the middle of a very busy town; very quiet & peaceful stay.

The only thing would be very noisy pet birds very early in the morning; not a huge problem unless you want a sleep in.

The setting was incredible, tropical and peaceful. Breakfast was delicious, with fresh fruit and homemade bread. The caretaker was so friendly and helpful, making recommendations for dining and arranging reservations for us. The location was perfect, close to amenities but far enough to feel like a retreat. Loved the salt water pool and relaxing in the garden.

The bathroom was slightly dated, but still functional. Some areas of the house and garden could use a bit of attention.

McAlpine House is a an older building constructed of corrugated iron, as are most buildings in Broome, with wooden plank floors. It is quaint, in a picturesque setting, with quite tropical gardens. The staff were friendly and helpful, though reception is only open until 3pm. It retains an image and feeling of yesteryear, and is not too far to walk to the main town area (about 20mins, or taxi $10) and to some of the other venues. There is a simple pool and comfortable lounge. The room was adequate, and the bathroom newer and quite acceptable. We hired a scooter to get around Broome, and the hotel provided free parking behind security gates.

As McAlpine House is an older building of simple construction, the walls are paper thin and noise is an issue - especially the old squeaky floorboards. Though this was only a significant issue on one night with others passing and congregating near our room. As a bed and breakfast venue, I would not recommend the breakfast to anyone. It is more than sparse and the sight of masses of flies sucking fruit through the flymesh was most off-putting. Staff only operate at the venue until 3pm each day.

Only stayed one night but immediately felt relaxed. Whole 24 hrs was excellent

Nothing really. Maybe external lights near rooms could be turned off/dimmed at night?

This place is convenient for those arriving by plane as it's located close to the airport. It's also within easy reach of all the town's attractions. The lush garden surroundings make this a peaceful getaway from hectic city life.

It was a shame that some areas of the room were quite cramped, especially the bathroom.

The historic house has been lovingly restored and this made for a vry special experience. A lovely indulgent mini-stay.

Everything was beautifully presented, however we felt the breakfast was a little on the modest side. Even a Continental Breakfast these days will offer some extras, a boiled egg perhaps, or some ham or cheese. However this is a minor consideration and we did enjoy our stay very much and would love to return some day.

A really nice laid back atmosphere with classy old style heritage rooms. They have an unreal tree canopy over their outdoor decking as well.
