Only three bedrooms
This property has only three bedrooms. The fourth “bedroom” is the landing of the first floor with an extended sofa bed. It is an open space with no doors for privacy.

Incredible views
Had an incredible stay at this property! Views were stunning and the house had everything you could need. Games room was a lot of fun and pizza tasted amazing from the wood fire oven. Would definitely stay again!

A beautiful property with a great veiw to match and It is conveniently located across the street from the golf course. However there was a sense of big brother watching with several cameras set up around the property including one inside the rumpus room which made it hard to fully relax.

Stunning views but overall a disappointing stay
The location of the property at Wirrina Cove was unique with 180 degree views of the coastline, marina and rolling hills complete with kangaroos and echidnas. We really appreciated being able to find a house that would accommodate 14 members of our extended family and also our dog. Unfortunately several small things let down our overall experience and made our stay less relaxing than it should have been. There were not enough towels or fitted sheets provided for 14 guests. There were not enough wine glasses despite previous guest comments. Basic supplies were meagre - one toilet roll in each bathroom, no bin liners, insufficient dishwasher tablets. We were not advised that we needed to bring our own wood for the pizza oven. The downstairs games room did not have a door seal and was over-run with millipedes. The dishwasher was not working on arrival (this was resolved with a new dishwasher installed on second day of our stay). However not enough tablets meant we were still washing up on last day. I needed to chase up the refund of the bond and several times contact Unwind to see if a pair of earrings left behind could be returned to us. (That was a no so some-one has pocketed a nice new pair of expensive earrings.) I would not book with Unwind Holidays again.

Fishing trip
We stayed 2 nights while doing fishing charter in the cape. The place was amazing, views and serenity are unparalleled. The amenities were all fine, and the managers were a delight to deal with. Will be back next year for sure
