Great Family Getaway

Fantastic central location with great views and not far to beach. Having to bring own towels and linen a bit inconvenient but otherwise a brilliant stay.

Awesome location and Property

This property is amazing. Has everything that you could ask for. Close location to the Main Street, gorgeous views, amazing spaces to retreat to if need privacy. Downstairs private lounge and bedroom retreat is great for privacy. Each room had their own bathroom and that is a bonus when you have adults and teenage children staying with you. Plenty of hot water and the kitchen set up and utensils and crockery was plentiful. Modern amenities and nice and open. Will definitely rebook here when visiting again. Can’t recommend enough. Only slight dilemma was a sewage smell when we first entered the accommodation, possibly due to when the last guest stayed and when water was ran through pipes. We ran the taps and flushed toilets, opened up the windows and let some fresh air in brought some air fresheners and didn’t take long for the smell to go.

Great Location, Amazing View!

Perfect house for my family of 4 plus my parents to stay. Having the separate retreat downstairs with kitchenette was perfect so my parents could have their own space while still being with us. Had everything we needed, super close to shops, boardwalk and beach. We were able to walk everywhere (great workout pushing the pram up the hill though!). Great backyard for kids to play in. Would definitely stay here again!

Great Location. Lots of space.

Great location. Great views. Home was well appointed with great selection of cooking utensils. Bathrooms clean and beds comfortable. A bit more of a tidy up and cobweb removal outside would make this property perfect.

Great location

We were happy with our accomodation, clean, comfortable and within walking distance to everything we needed. Only issue was that the front door didn’t lock properly and this could only be fixed after we’d left.
