We love Duk 'n' Willa

As usual (we've stayed at 'The Duk' many times now), we had a lovely 2 weeks at the Duk 'n' Willa cottage. Even with incredibly wet weather (we had 4 days without rain/showers in the 2 weeks we were there!) we still managed to have a great time and fitted in kayaking, fishing and lots of great beach walks with our dogs. The cottage suits us perfectly: great location being near to restaurants, boat ramps and beaches; comfortable without being pretentious or precious; well appointed; perfect for our dogs with a big outdoor area; and a perfect place to clean up up after fishing and kayaking (all weather outside table; functional laundry, two fridges; hose to wash things down etc etc). We love it.

We enjoyed our stay here. The dogs loved it as well. It was a short walk down to the beach. It was fairly quiet but still close to everything. We would definitely come back again. Bridget was an excellent host - readily available and very accommodating.

Our Stay at Duk-n-Willa

Our stay at the above property was overall very disappointing. The condition of the cottage was very disappointing and did not warrant a 4.6 rating. Externally the cottage was in a terrible state including the laundry. There were holes in the suffits and internally and externally the cottage was desperate for a paint. On 2 occassions we returned after a day out to no hot water. There was insufficient towels for 4 people and NETFLIX was not accessible at all times. We felt unsafe due to cars hooning each night and argumentative neighbours. During the day for six days road works were camped outside the door.interanally the range hood in the kitchen and the stove needed a good clean and I spent time wiping grubby marks off the wall, windowsills and wiping thick dust off daddo rails. There was evidence of mould over the back and front door and the back screen door no longer locked or was clean.the ceiling internally was sagging and paint beginning to peel.internal doors, door frame needed painting, nor would have passed building standards. Whilst it was evident attempts were made to present the cottage well there still was inadequate seating in the loungeroom and the the cottage did not deliver as advertised for the amount of money charged per day. $200+

Nice old house. Neighbourhood not so nice, felt unsafe.

House not cleaned properly. Undesirable neighbours yelling and fighting till after midnight each night, my son felt scared and unsafe. The hot water system is too small for everyone to shower in the one day, we had to have a couple of cold showers. Dishwasher had a meals worth of food piled in the bottom. Had to wash/clean things before use. Barbecue was so filthy it was a health hazard, took an hour to clean before we could eat off it. I let the property owner know about all these issues but have had no reply. Overall disappointing.

Really comfortable & well equipped property for families & furry friends. We hope to stay again. The only reason I gave 4 out of 5 stars is because I couldn't give 4.5 stars & one bathroom & no separate toilet was challenging at times!

This cottage is situated in a quiet area, and close to the beach and esplanade. With an old dog, we like to take her with us to enjoy the holidays but she needs somewhere to stay and rest too. This house is fully fenced and takes little dogs in mind. We had a great time, and will def be back in the future. :)

Fantastic

Fantastic accomodation one small constructive criticism would be to replace the mattress as a minimum in the master bedroom as it in my opinion is past it and I found it extremely uncomfortable maybe replace bed for a queensize as it appears to be a double? Apart from this the place is fantastic no issues with ventilation even in 2nd sunroom dispite fan not working. If that master bed is upgraded it would make such a difference thanks for a wonderful stay thank you we hopefully will be back

Great location

Great property for family of four with children or seniors plus a dog. The Queenslander house is clean and tidy. The property is walking distance to water park and off leased dog park. Probably adding more baking or basic cooking utensil such as colander, salad bowl, masher, etc. The internet and Netflix was great for our seniors parents. New oven and fancy toaster were fantastic. Second air-con or bigger fan in the back bedroom would be ideal especially in summer. Great for those coming for fishing trip. The second fridge would be helpful. Bridget was prompt with her communication. Thank you Bridget. Thank you for sharing a great holiday property . Regards, Theresa and Steve

Comfortable compact cottage

Charming compact cottage, with everything you need, but in need of some TLC. Good sized yard (dotted with lovely perfumed frangipanis) and outdoor patio. The interior has been transformed and modernised, and tastefully decorated, but a bit tired. Loved what has been done to the front verandah to create a 3rd bedroom/sleep-out, but I gather it would be a very hot room in summer? The exterior desperately needs maintenance and the unsecured garage (roller door was partly open when we arrived, and half of it filled with bikes etc) can be an issue, but access to the yard by vehicles is no problem. Comfortable enough for short stays.
