Just Right
The trip was a combined Christmas present for 5 grandkids - Illawarra Fly and Jamberoo water Park. This location was perfect.
Access was by coded front door lock - no problems.
During our stay there were some minor maintenance issues, but the local property manager Sue arrived promptly and attended to them with no fuss. That response was terrific.

Great spot. Need new cleaners
On arrival house had had very little cleaning. After contacting owners a supposed ‘cleaner’ was sent to clean house again. On return basic cleaning has still not been attended including cleaning/mopping bathroom floors. Owners would not answer phone after this.
Otherwise it could be a great house in a great location. Easy walking distance to everything
