Another great holiday at Alana's! We've been holidaying at this home for a few years now and love it! It's clean, well maintained, comfortable and well equipped. I'm always impressed with how comfortable the mattresses are. I have a bad back, but have no problems sleeping here. During our recent stay we noticed some additional modifications that would be great for the summer time. The hosts have installed an outdoor motorised shade/fly screen for the balcony bbq area. They've also added plantation shutters to both the downstairs bedrooms. Alana is a great host too. Easy to communicate with and answers questions promptly. She's also happy to share local knowledge about Goolwa. We always leave this home feeling well rested and happy with our stay. Thanks Alana! ##### Ann O.

Aug 21, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Very clean & peaceful As a frequent house hirer it’s often hard to relax on arrival. I usually need to give a through clean before I can enjoy. Goolwa south was spotless even the windows were clean (last place I couldn’t see out of). The property had a lovely homey feel, the kids enjoyed the games as did we the welcome gift, it was a personalised touch. Location was great, we often hire on the river which has a lot of traffic. Although there is no water views, the trade off it’s so quite & calm. The pure tap is a welcomed addition as SA water is not the best to drink. Heaters and blinds outside are a great feature, we had a great time. Only thing I missed (I may not have found) espresso cups for the kindly supplied coffee machine & a waste basket/bin downstairs. We are looking to returning soon for another stay. ##### Katrina A. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amanda C.
