Jan 20, 2025 #### Week at Lorikeet Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were told 6wks prior to our regular holiday that our usual property was suddenly unavailable, so we searched for an alternative and we found Lorikeet. It was ideal for our family!! Everything was clean and tidy, space for boards/bikes etc and within our budget. Beds were comfy, bathrooms clean and functional and a lovely outlook over Crescent.Little bit further walk to the water than we are used too but it’s fine. The staff at Elders have been lovely to deal with. So good we will be staying again. ##### Vanessa L.

Value for money. ##### Julie M. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Belinda Oct 26, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication Cool retro beach house with amazing ocean views - nice little back deck and most needs supplied. Would come back if full foxtel and wifi were installed. Extremely limited foxtel so had to use our own streaming with terrible results - rained entire stay so this is important for those situations. Fridge seal not working so had to chock the fridge shut once we turned it on. Owners will probably have this fixed before next people stay, we imagine. ##### Belinda Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2022 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### A guest from NA, NOTAVAIL Oct 10, 2022 #### Creso trip sept 22 Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful.

Jun 30, 2022 #### The perfect surf retreat Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Awesome view from upstairs catching some amazing sunrises. Really cosy upstairs for the cold winter mornings. Downstairs deck perfect for soaking up the sun with the bbq and outdoor lounge chairs. Minimal parking would be the only downfall for an otherwise ideal getaway spot ##### Jaiden P.

I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location, amazing view, walk to shops/beach, easy parking. Would recommend! Only thing I would improve is communication re check in/out times - there were 3 x different ones provided & I had to ring to confirm due to confusion (not a huge deal) - other than that, fabulous & easy check in with a lock box. ##### Lizzie E.

We have stayed in this house many times and love the beach cottage ambiance and ample space for our family of 6 adults. We were pleasantly surprised this time to see the recent improvements made to the property. Our only suggestion to the owners is that we would strongly recommend that the mattresses on the beds be updated. ##### Tracey This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Justin C.
