Communication with Agent's representative was non existent prior to payment and it's not a type of rental i will ever do again! The property however was spectacular; great location overlooking Encounter Bay. The house had everything one needed and more. A little more regular attention to cleaning of cobwebs would have been good. ##### MIKE P. Stayed 8 nights in Mar 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Mary G. Oct 21, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Was a lovely clean house with everything we were delighted with the house..had everything we needed. Only thing we would like for longer stays is probably something a whole family can sit on in the loungeroom. The wicker chairs weren't very comfy..sorry. but otherwise was a delightful house :) ##### Mary G.
