Jan 2, 2024 Liked: Location Disliked: Cleanliness #### Great location - property needs some work The property is in a great location and has everything you need. We experienced a few issues with the property not being cleaned properly before check in with all cutlery being left on the bench and in various states of rust and linen not provided. Linen rectified promptly by the property manager. The property needs a deep clean as there were cockroaches, both dead and alive in all rooms. ##### Anna W.

I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location is beautiful and the views amazing. The living room/kitchen of the unit is well-equipped. The bedroom level needs some work. Stained carpets throughout, the fan and light in the master bedroom not working - some nights were quite warm, and the apartment has no air conditioning. Master bedroom had no doona cover/set at all, just the bare doona. Door to back bedroom was broken, and that combined with the carpet stains and no lamp made our daughter scared to sleep in there. The pedestal fans for bedrooms two and three were old and need replacing soon. For the price of the apartment in peak time these things were disappointing. We stayed beach-front in Forster for the same price the week before and the apartment there was much better looked after. The pool at the complex was great and our kids loved swimming there. ##### Fiona L. Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### ashika l.

Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2019 From a partner site ### 6/10 Okay #### Sally Dec 1, 2018 #### Good setting, not great for families We stayed in unit 4 for the week of Christmas 2018\. The views were breathtaking, we enjoyed the lawn out front, and our children kayaked daily. Unfortunately, the retired neighbors who must live there year round were very unwelcoming. They yelled at our kids few times, and ignored us even if we were passing in the car park. It was a real damper on an otherwise great location. We paid a lot of money for the appartment, it was unfortunate that the neighbors were able to influence our stay negatively. I would recommend families find an alternative location. ##### Sally Archival ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anonymous Sep 30, 2016 #### Pelican sands holiday We loved our stay at Pelican sands!! such a beautiful location. ##### Anonymous Archival ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amanda Mar 1, 2015 #### Excellent location, great family holiday unit After returning to this unit after growing up having our family holiday here, it was still as great as i remembered.
