Nice setting, and comfortable. Communication with property owner is a niggle as it goes via Vrbo/Stayz and it takes a while to get a response. Otherwise, hosts are great! ##### Martin Stayed 8 nights in Jul 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Suzanne D.

Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Kasia Aug 14, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, communication The apartment is very conveniently located close to town and tourist attractions, with beautiful views of the Macdonnell Ranges and The Gap. Excellent WiFi, but limited access to streeming chanels. The front of the property, the balcony and the bath tab look uninviting and neglected. The front security gate broken. ##### Kasia Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Aparthotels Kailua](https://www.expedia.ca/Kailua-Apart-Hotels.d183151-aaApartHotels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Cheap Hotels in Naha](https://www.expedia.ca/Naha-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-0-d2655-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Oasis Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Botwood-Hotels-The-Oasis-Motel.h33410432.Hotel-Information) > > [Tawas Bay Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Tawas-City-Hotels-Tawas-Bay-Beach-Resort.h20406.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in Midtown Crossing](https://www.expedia.ca/Midtown-Crossing-Omaha-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-n553248635976478623-0-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Halstead](https://www.expedia.ca/Halstead-Hotels.d3000438034.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Chalets Shirdi](https://www.expedia.ca/Shirdi-Chalets.d6034584-aaChalets.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [H on Mitchell Apartment Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Darwin-Hotels-H-On-Mitchell-Apartment-Hotel.h11567915.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Downtown Tucson](https://www.expedia.ca/Downtown-Tucson-Tucson-Hotels.0-n6140740-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels with Free Airport Shuttle in Vancouver](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Hotels-Hotels-With-Free-Airport-Shuttle.0-0-d178315-tHotelswithFreeAirportShuttle.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Fofoa](https://www.expedia.ca/Fofoa-Hotels.d3000479253.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Umnya Dune Camp](https://www.expedia.ca/MHamid-El-Ghizlane-Hotels-Umnya-Dune-Camp.h36032505.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Calgary](https://www.expedia.ca/Calgary-Hotels.d178245.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Darwin](https://www.expedia.ca/Darwin-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Darwin.h21772.Hotel-Information) > > [Quest Palmerston](https://www.expedia.ca/Darwin-Hotels-Quest-Palmerston.h3917876.Hotel-Information) > > [Beach Hotel in Southampton](https://www.expedia.ca/Southampton-Hotels-Beach-Hotel.0-0-d181905-tBeachHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Pet-friendly Hotels in Brooklyn Arts District](https://www.expedia.ca/Brooklyn-Arts-District-Wilmington-Hotels-Pet-Friendly-Hotel.0-n891420931096850432-0-tPetfriendlyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Darwin FreeSpirit Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Darwin-Hotels-Darwin-FreeSpirit-Resort.h3103272.Hotel-Information) > > [Red Rock Hostel](https://www.expedia.ca/Alice-Springs-Hotels-Alice-Springs-YHA-Hostel.h9848040.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Goffs (YHZ) to Gaspé (YGP)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yhz/ygp/halifax-to-gaspe) > > [Flights from Hyderabad (HDD) to Victoria, BC (YYJ-Victoria Intl.)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/hdd/yyj/hyderabad-to-victoria) ### Cars > [Car rentals in Hokitika](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Hokitika.d6028321.Car-Rental-Guide) ### Packages > [Philadelphia Museum of Art](https://www.expedia.ca/Philadelphia-Museum-Of-Art-West-Philadelphia.d502288.Vacation-Attraction) ### General
