Jul 18, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Was a nice and quiet place to stay, surrounded by bush. Close to the beach and different nature walks (although we didn't explore fully by foot, I'm sure there would be a short cut down to the water). About a 3 minute drive from supermarket, petrol station and shops at Snug. Beds were comfortable and warm (winter stay) and heaters were provided in each bedroom to make the inside cosy as well. Split system was good for the main living area. ##### Daniel G. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gloria S.
