This beautifully appointed property was instantly relaxing and we felt at home on arrival. The host Tracy was easy to communicate with and we found everything we needed to enjoy our weekend away. So well equipped! The extensive DVD collection and outdoor entertainment area to relax in the sunshine was fabulous. We loved this quiet neighbourhood and highly recommend a stay here to explore the region. Thanks!

Property was very clean and well maintained. Had a lot of things for us to do on the not so nice days, board games etc. As a group of 12 we had enough space to not feel crowded and have some personal space when needed.The hosts were amazing and sorted out our one issue promptly.Would highly recommend this for group bookings.

Great property, very well stocked with everything you need. Kitchen was fully stocked and there was every board game, dvd and book you could think of! Location was great too. Only down points - no hand towels provided in the bathrooms so we had to use a big towel but then no spare towels supplied for showers. Outside - the front and side of the house were overgrown so felt a bit unsafe to let the kids roam due to potential spiders or snakes.

Great Stay

We had a very enjoyable experience staying at the Tea Trees Retreat. It was the perfect place to stay and celebrate a special family birthday; 95th, so a quiet affair. The host was very friendly and helpful. Beds were comfy, lounge was cosy, kitchen very well equipped. I highly recommend this place. CD

Relaxing weekend with friends

Thanks Tracy for a lovely stay at your home away from home. We enjoyed our first night around the large dining table and mornings on the deck at the outdoor table. Beds were comfy, showers hot, and house roomy for our group of 7. Everything provided, even fans for the bedrooms, made our stay easy and comfortable.

Golf weekend

My golfing group used this accommodation, combined with another house close by, for a golfing weekend on the Peninsula. The house was clean and tidy and although it wasn't used for "lounging around in" it was nevertheless, very comfortable. It was well appointed and there were plenty of comfortable beds. This location was excellent for our weekend.

We loved our stay here, the pictures don’t do the property justice, the house is much bigger in person and there’s no shortage of games and entertainment to keep busy. Tracey was very responsive.

Girls weekend

6 of us stayed in the area for a special hiking event. Tracy’s house was clean, tidy, with all amenities. Communication was easy enough once I succumbed to downloading the app. No other way… the little neighbour dog was annoying at 3am and for some reason the neighbours bright light from his veranda seemed to shine directly our way but the rest was wonderful. Thank you Tracy

Girls weekend away

2 night weekend stay. Kitchen well equipped. didn't use outdoor area due to weather on the weekend. Close proximity to local beaches with a car. Very hilly if walking. Driveway is very steep and on the narrow side. 4 bedrooms with queen/double beds although there were lots of fold out beds available I think it would be very crowded if they were needed. There were only 4 of us so we had ample space.
