We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Dare St home. It was exactly as described in the Stayz advertisement; was very clean and tidy and had everything we needed for our brief stay. We found the communication from Stayz to be clear and delivered in a timely manner. [We did not attempt to communicate with the owner.] The king-sized bed was most comfortable as well. We loved the home's proximity to shops, cafes/restaurants (2 minutes walk) and the beach (10 minutes walk). Would thoroughly recommend dinner at 'The Dill' (outstanding) and lunch at 'The Dunes'. Would definitely stay there again. Deb and Clin

Every convenience supplied. Including a huge washer/dryer. Our host even fitted safety gate to the stairs so our little one would be safe. The location could not have been better within walking distance to beaches and shops.
