We had a wonderful stay at this Stayz property in Skennars Head for a family trip with 10 people. From the outside the house looks quite small, but once you step inside it opens up and is the perfect size for a larger group.Everything felt new, clean and very well set up — the home had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The beds and pillows were especially comfy, which made a big difference for everyone.The pool table was a huge hit with the young adults and gave us plenty to do in the evenings. The location is also fantastic — easy walking distance to the beach and only about 10 minutes to Lennox Head for great cafes and bars.Overall, a fantastic property for a family getaway. We’d happily stay again!
