Something for everyone
Great location and view of encounter bay. Great walk for the tweens to the Esplanade. They loved the pool and poker table downstairs and the presentation of the bedrooms was excellent. Lots of extra equipment for cooking in kitchen that we were not expecting. Definitely think of staying again sometime.

Review
Cleanliness of the property disappointing. Previous occupants clothing found behind beds.
Bathrooms needed a more thorough clean,
suggest renovations. Third bathroom facility completely laughable. Shower reminiscent of Harry Potter …. under the stairs!
BUT - we as a family had a wonderful holiday in the house.

Rumbelow house
House is great - fabulous views and location and very clean. Stayz is extremely hard to book with though as the link kept expiring and it took three seperate bookings over a two week period to actually have it booked. Photos need updating as well. There was no mention of using the wood fire inside so communication about that would have been good and maybe some wood left to use one of the nights.

A nice house and view
The house, location and view were all spectacular and I was able to promptly contact anybody i needed to if i had an issue. Unfortunately this stay was let down by the stains already pre-existing in the carpet, the ripped pool table and the poker table with a busted foot bar that wasn't screwed in. Ontop of that there were doors that wouldn't get stay locked and doors that wouldn't close.

Mostly fantastic holiday home
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Rumbelow Street. The views are exceptional, the house is 'as described' and very comfortable for multiple families.
We felt the list of instructions on arrival and departure were a bit overwhelming, and with kids staying as part of our group it was stressful at times worrying we might miss one of the many 'to do' jobs when we left at the end of our stay. We were very disappointed that both gas bottles were left empty, and as we arrived later in the day on our arrival we were unable to get them filled, which completely changed our plans for dinner that night.
The downstairs DVD player also wasn't able to be connected for the kids for the 'movie night' we had planned for them.
Overall, it is a lovely property - just be aware of the expectations that come with it.

Neat and tidy house with a gorgeous view
House was lovely enough with a gorgeous view but my family didn’t have any storage in the kitchen for our needs . Pantry was locked.
We had young children so yards wasn’t secured for them.
Seemed like a party house where hens night and bucks show were used there often.
The house did have a beautiful view but just lacked certain things our lamps in main bedrooms weren’t working .
No wifi access
Having to bring our own tea towels, towels and linen .
With the price you just expect it to be a bit more luxurious.
But overall a lovely stay with family from interstate .
