My family stayed for 5 weeks at the palm house. The house is beautiful with high ceilings, big windows and wood throughout. The top verandah with a peak of the ocean, BBQ and sitting area is beautiful and the pool area is wonderful and was used daily. The host was easy to contact, and went above and beyond to assist with any issues/concerns that arose. The location is amazing, so close to the beach, and in the quieter part of Torquay, while still being walking distance to the shops/cafes. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Was a short stay. Everything was accessible the family had a great time with kids all able to sleep together.If l could say one thing it would be to have a few extra mixing bowls and frying pans when there is a larger group. Would deff stay again. Great spot, very good communication.
