Nice house Orchid Beach
Great house, very comfortable. Lotsa crockery, cutlery etc but no toaster ? Friendly welcome from caretaker and wife. Had a weird experience on the last night when a shower screen exploded into pieces around 11:30. Guys next door came running thinking a tree had fallen on the house! Caretaker came over next morning and we got all the glass out. If it was me I’d just install a shower curtain. Overall very fun stay in clean well equipped house. No power points in bathroom. We will return

Modern and comfortable
Great place to stay for a large family or group of friends, nice to have two bathrooms (can be rare at Orchid Beach) and will let you stay for just a couple of nights, not a minimum week like so many other places.

A great place to stay
Our stay was comfortable and perfect for the family. Close to Waddi Point where we spent Anzac Day with all the amenities we needed. We've booked again to stay net year!

Property and caretaker were excellent
Property was nothing fancy, but that’s exactly what we wanted. Heaps of indoor and outdoor space, great fire area, and clean. Caretaker was really nice and helped us out with some things we needed but otherwise was nowhere to be seen (yet always available just next door). A fantastic bloke :)
