‘Vanilla’ This accommodation is in a great location ! 5 minute walk to the shops and a 10 minute walk to the beach. A few things could improve the stay. The dishwasher doesn’t have a top rack, pots / pans have flaking pealing nonstick surface, falling slats on the queen bed, broken shower door. Wouldn’t recommend to the fussy traveler.

It had the conveniences we needed, secure backyard for our dog, good shower, 3 bedrooms, TV and walking distance to the beach, all the rest was very ordinary.

Great location but dated
Big house but everything was very dated. No fan upstairs as was indicated and it was too hot to sleep there. Beds were so uncomfortable. Time to upgrade your furniture. But great location

Great family getaway
House was well situated; handy to shops and beach. Furnishings and fittings a little tired but functional. Quiet and peaceful and love the views to the beach from the upstairs bedroom.

Get some new furniture.
The beds were terrible. The couches dirty. The shower screen was broken. Basically the place contains old dirty furniture that should have been thrown out.

Great location
Great location! But the house is tired and needs a lot of TLC. People write a review for a reason. To Give feedback. There is no point doing reviews if the host doesn’t fix or take on board customer feedback. Have stayed in many accomodation and this wasn’t up to satisfactory condition.

Disappointing and left early
The listing states "a few minor imperfections, but nothing that would affect your stay"We found matters that included ...Dishwasher wasn't working correctly- soap container didn't open during the cycle, and the rail for the top tray was broken, making it very difficult to load.There was peeling paint in the kitchen,particularly around the sink with accompanying mouldThere was a water leak in the downstairs toilet.A blind in the main living room had no cord so had to be manually rolled up and down.Old food was found on the floor of the living room.The couches were stained, covered up with throw rugsThe carpet on the stairwell and main bedroom were stainedThe shower screen door in the ensuite is broken, and jammed when I tried to get out of the shower recessThere were no towels for the main bedroomThe gauze door to the back verandah doesn't slide and is difficult to operate
