Oct 9, 2020 Liked: Check-in, communication, location #### A little disappointed considering the nightly rate Let me start with saying this property has amazing views over the Gracetown coastline. Simply stunning! I realise this is a beach shack, and so perhaps is aimed at a more budget customer, and whilst there have been some modernisation and renovation for comfort, so much more could, and should be done to ensure a happy guest. Nightly rental rates for accommodation have risen significantly in these Covid state lockdown times and with it, income for holiday home owners. It would be prudent to invest some of this income into a better quality experience for your guests. It’s good business sense! These are some of the issues I’ve identified: - no doona cover on our bed. All other doonas on other beds had covers on though. - Musty/old smell in bedrooms.Perhaps the carpets could do with a steam clean. - Some blinds broken in bedrooms - blinds not blockout so we woke up not long after the sun rose, before 6am - bare light bulbs in bedrooms - old marked and scratched furniture - bedside tables are dusty and dirty - dirty frypans. One with baked on grease too dirty to use. For the $$$ a night you are getting, it would be worth spending some money on fresh cushions, new furniture, better blinds etc. I had already emailed the property management 5 days ago, but haven’t received a reply - that’s concerning! ##### SHARLENE M.

Oct 22, 2019 Liked: Check-in, communication, location #### What you see is what you get The property is just as described in the property brief. We enjoyed our time here and would recommend it to others. What let’s the property down is lack of attention to detail in some areas. You are greeted by overflowing bins and some rubbish on the ground in the parking area, cobwebs at the entrance area and on most other windows. The path to the front door had not been swept in weeks. As a guest there were limited items provided to keep the place clean. The BBQ was dirty, there was nothing in the property for us to use to clean it so we did not use it. There was dog poo at various locations throughout the back yard which we picked up. These two last points though a result of previous guests not respecting the property should have been checked. Though disappointing these issues would not stop me from returning...... just attention to detail needs addressing and we would have given the place 10/10 as opposed to 6/10 ##### Patrick R.
