I don't think we are going to find much, if anything wrong with that! Looks great

Re: Tasmanian Motel website
I would like to see pictures of the various locations and their facilities (front of the motel, reservation desk, restaurant, gym, rooms, etc). Give the visitor a feel for the hotel's atmosphere. I would move the Site Map link to the footer.
Otherwise, I love well designed websites with good color schemes and easy to find information. This is one of them. Good job!

Re: Tasmanian Motel website
Thanks for the feedback.
The only photos I have are what you see unfortunately. The Motel is just about to be repainted. Once that's done, hopefully they will have some photo's taken.
I'm currently upgrading the booking form.
And yes you're right, the Sitemap link would be better placed in the footer.

Re: Tasmanian Motel website
I am enjoying this a lot, looks amazing!
The only note that your 'copyright' info in the footer doesn't shown properly unless I hover on it because of the dark colour.

Thanks H13 & HH
(HH) - It's intentional that the copyright info is darker as its non-important. I still need to fine tune the CSS so it doesn't highlight on mouse over.

Re: Tasmanian Motel website
I agree with @HH that the footer should have better visibility and not be in dark font.
Speaking of dark font, I wish your main menu were in white font with the cool rustic orange hovering color. It doesn't standout enough being dark.
Also, in your footer is the Special Offers link. In the footer? Wouldn't it be better placed somewhere up top? If not then I would take it out all together since you already have the links in the middle of the screen.

Re: Tasmanian Motel website
I like the site as is with the footer as is....problem with making the footer as much a focal point as the header is finding the balance........which I think you have with one of the best examples of a joomla site I've seen. Great template selection and site layout.
great job

Thanks Namsul for your comments.
I had already made the changes, so you're seeing the re-worked menus anyway.

Re: Tasmanian Motel website
Awesome site! Your template is well designed and the image in your header is beautiful.
You should consider giving your search box a different color. It has the same color with your site's background. That makes it difficult to find.
Cheers!

Thanks joomfriend.
I wanted to down play the search box as there is very little content.
