The location was a short walk from dog friendly on lead beaches, dog friendly cafes and restaurants and a supermarket. The Villa was perfect for a holiday with our mini poodle! The small fenced area gave her freedom and made toileting easy. The needs and caring for your dog during the stay has definitely been considered when making these available as pet friendly. Will definitely be back!

nothing like the pics, extra charge of $50 for our dod, this should have been made clear on the booking page, $350 for this property is a lot ☹️ We booked this property late as we got tired on the drive north, we paid for a better room and we were expecting to see some water or the pool, but had a clean well kept room over a main road, in the suburbs. Sorry

Was on a road trip heading north with my dog and needed a place to rest our heads for the night, this was the only place in the area that was available. I paid over $300 for 1 night. The room was pretty small. They also say they are pet friendly, however were very clear with me that my dog wasnt allowed on any furniture, and if there was any fur found on the bed I'd have my deposit taken. How can a person this when they are asleep? They say it's because they rent their linen, okay, then why say you're pet friendly when you have such a restrictive rule in place? Overall the room was fine, clean and had what we needed, but for over $300 a night, i expected a lot more.
