The house is well maintained and there are a huge selection of kitchenware, board game etc. Some of us found the linen to be a bit dusty but it might be because of the Covid lock down.

Shane communicated wonderfully, check-in was a breeze. A bottle of champagne, chocolates and a card on arrival was a lovely touch. The kitchen had more amenities than most people would have in their own kitchens. The views from the deck are the selling point of Rimrock, with heaters and blankets to use as the sun starts to set and it cools down allowing us to continue to enjoy the views. There are a lot of steps up to the accomodation however we were provided with the use of the inclinator which made bringing all our belongings up and down from the accomodation so easy! Great idea and so helpful. Thanks for a lovely stay. ##### Sanaa M. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tahnee A.

The photos don’t do this house any justice. Once you see the house in person you will absolutely fall in love! The weekend spent here was absolutely perfect. The deck was fantastic to relax on and enjoy some food and drinks. The views from both decks are phenomenal! I have never seen anything that compares. We watched the sunrises in the morning from the balcony and it took us back to Hawaii! The house was perfect for us. All the utensils that we needed were provided. Coffee, tea, spices and even milk was provided. Beautiful soaps in the bathroom and hand sanitisers throughout the house made us feel very welcome. Shane’s communication was great throughout the trip! Very fast response with any questions we had and very polite. Complimentary champagne and chocolates on arrival was such a beautiful touch. Shane’s emails about eateries and things to do in Palm beach was so helpful. Off street parking was no problem for us. You are able to walk to the beach from the property (beautiful walk) without any issues and it is very close. I 100% will be staying here again and recommending this property to family and friends.

The home is a real retreat... stunning yet oozing in comfort and charm. We loved waking up at sunrise to watch the sun peeping over the glistening horizon, the birds, early morning sailors...… just divine !

Nov 26, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Palm Beach Paradise This place has the most magnificent, breath taking views of the ocean from both the upper and lower deck. I chose this place to celebrate my 50th with 8 of my closest friends from far and away. On the first evening there, we enjoyed gathering on the top deck to enjoy drinks and nibbles while experiencing the ocean sounds with this glorious backdrop. Rimrock Retreat has lovely decor and had a very relaxed feel. The three bathrooms and separate bedroom areas made it comfortable. We enjoyed a dip at Whale Beach and a walk to Barren Joey Lighthouse. The area is very quiet with beautiful surrounds and birdlife. We caught a ferry to Patonga for lunch at the Boat House which was a highlight. By mid afternoon we headed back to Rimrock Retreat to watch a DVD, enjoy some games, listen to music and relax with a glass of wine or two. We all enjoyed our stay immensely and agreed that we should stay here every year to reignite our friendships and rejuvenate in this gorgeous space. ##### Linda B.

So relaxing. ##### Christopher G. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gianluca Q. Jan 19, 2019 #### Breathtaking views, superb host! We stayed at Rimrock over the new years break and it was an absolutely amazing vacation. Shane was a great host, who was happy to answer any questions and was understanding to our special requests. The house itself contains all the luxuries you require! The fact that it does not have AC is no issue as the cool sea breeze is constant and the house is designed to allow for cross flow ventilation. Now lets talk about the views - they were absolutely spectacular! Theres nothing quite like waking up to the expansive sea views, watching the water glisten in the morning sunlight, hearing the waves crash in on the cliffs down below, feeding some local parrots as they land on the balcony - it was just magical. The house is perfectly positioned between Palm Beach and Whale Beach, only a 10-20 minute walk away from each. It is also a short car trip away from the local supermarket and eateries. Thanks so much to Shane for having us in your amazing home! ##### Gianluca Q.
