Very comfortable, good value and spacious accommodation. Kalbarri Escapes were very communicative about everything, including the power outage that affected the town during our stay. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay and in future we will likely book this location.

Surfside Retreat was perfect for the needs of the four adults in our group. Thanks to the air conditioning and ceiling fans and the proximity to the beach, we were able to see and do everything we had planned to do in Kalbarri despite the heat. Our stay in Kalbarri was the highlight of our nine day road trip.

A week's vacation from the city grind. The house was nicely furnished, finished, quiet area, near the beach, but a good distance from the shops, and not too far either. The house is relatively spacious without being too big, pet friendly. I would stay out this house again in the future.

We were very happy with the house, it was clean and spacious also in a good location.We booked for 7 nights and offered to stay free for an extra night which was great. we end up hiring a pontoon on the extra day that we stay and had a fantastic experience on the river. so thank you.
Surfside Retreat is spacious with a good floor-plan.
Beds were comfortable and the position is convenient.
The property is on a T-junction and so there was traffic noise in the main bedroom. Not so much in the 2 minor bedrooms.
The property was overall very clean.
There were some maintenance issues that were reported to Contessi which they were going to fix after our stay. Most did not impact on our enjoyment of the property except for the BBQ - which did not work apart from the sideburner. We were told that the owner was replacing the BBQ - so that will be great for the future!
Overall the property was excellent!
Nice property, well positioned between town and the beach.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Just a house
It's just a place to stay. Small things..... no hair dryers in bathroom, a full length mirror would be great in one of the rooms and would be appreciated if they allowed more than one roll of toilet paper for a three night stay and I would say it needs a good clean, especially the bathrooms.

We are regular visitors to Kalbarri and have booked Surfside Retreat previously. It is a great house, clean and tidy with plenty of space and a good kitchen, close to the beach and town. We'll be back!
We enjoyed our stay, the house is clean and comfortable and a great location.
