Weekend Stay

Property was perfect for our family of 6 and pet dog. The whole property is enclosed and was in the perfect location. We stayed for the port half fairy marathon and was able to jog down to the start line which meant less worry for us on race day! Communication with the property was seamless and we had everything we needed during our stay.

Great position. The cleanliness of the property could of been better. Plastic champagne flutes were not ideal, especially when there badly scratched and dirty.
