Feb 6, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Too expensive for quality of premises It’s very expensive for the quality of the premises. I liked the beach but not the property....fridge was old and want closing and therefore cooling properly. The bathrooms were really old and not well designed ....water splashing everywhere and required a lot of cleaning for a group that’s meant to be on holidays. I definitely would never rent this property again for the price we paid didn’t feel like we got the value. ##### Laila C.

This was voted one of the best. The house is a renovated fibro beach house. Well done and well stocked for a family stay. BUT very expensive given it is a converted beach house. ##### Jillian This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### FAITH Jul 14, 2017 #### Perfect getaway! A great place to getaway with the whole family and relax! Just thought it was a little pricey for its size and quality. But overall we had a great time and wonderful views! ##### FAITH This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Sandra Apr 1, 2017 #### Great Location Spent 4 nights over Easter. The property was very clean and had a well equipped kitchen. Views over the bay were fantastic and a very quite neighbourhood. The only negative I have for this property is the bathroom is not 2 bathrooms but 1 bathroom divided into 2 very small bathrooms with a shower and toilet separated by sliding doors. We stayed as 2 couples(who have been friends for 20 years and travelled quite a lot together) and we found the bathroom setup quite uncomfortable. Overall this is a lovely place for a family to stay for a holiday but I would not recommend for couples. ##### Sandra This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chantal A.
