Christmas Break

Overall the property was very clean and modern. Was pleasantly surprised with the home comforts. Being summer in South Australia the only fault was the air conditioning, only one small split system in the living area and small fans in the bedrooms. Curtains or awnings on the outside might have helped with keeping the house cooler. Overall a great stay.

Lovely shack

Lovely shack, well equipped, clean and close to the beach. The free WiFi was great! Would suggest adding some pedestal fans to the bedrooms as there is no AC in those rooms and it could get quite hot at night during the summer.

Good size family shack in quiet area but have to pack toilet paper etc and do a thorough clean.

Big enough back yard for kids/entertainment. Accomodates for family of x5, possibly even x6 people. Main bedroom mattress is for those that like a firm/hard bed. Local beach has too nuch seaweed & no waves. It's a shame to not be told about having to bring EVERYTHING (pillows, linen, towels, kitchen and handtowels, bath mat, toilet paper, cooking utensils) at time of booking, but infact told only days beforehand. Balls of fluff/dust were evident upon checking in. We didnt like having to clean everything (shower, toilet....Everything) and put everything back to how the home was. Vaccuum cleaner doesnt work properly, due to poor suction.

New favourite beach!

What a stunning location with unbelievable beaches, great crabbing and quiet neighbourhood. Perfect location, quick walk to the beach, great layout and the deck was the best. Thanks again, can’t wait for our next stay!
