Great location and size. Well stocked also
Great location, walking distance to beach and dunes. Would stay there again and we appreciated the well stocked kitchen in terms of utensils and cooking equipment.Check-in was surprising 4pm which felt late - 2pm would have been better

Not what we expected
The house was listed as a Townhouse and the main image shows a house, so we were disappointed to find out we only had the downstairs. It was a lot smaller than we'd expected. Unfortunately it hadn't been cleaned adequately in the kitchen area so there were ants. None of the remotes worked but managed to replace batteries eventually. The light & fan in the 2nd bedroom didn't work and no replacement battery to try. The bunk bed in the 2nd bedroom was not stable so moved every time anyone rolled over. The main bed was uncomfortable for us and my husband ended up sleeping on the sofa. The road noise was very noticeable, so would recommend taking earplugs. The kitchen needed more benchtop space and more shelving/storage to put cupboard staples in. Lovely to have a private garden but the grass was full of bindis so had to wear shoes.
The property was nice and light (except the 2nd bedroom which has no window) and is located really close to the most amazing Fingal Bay Beach, it's literally a few minutes walk away and is breathtaking.
