Fabulous house in quiet location, clean and well equiped (unlike what some reviews indicated)And the view wonderful we could easily see the ocean from the spacious living area. We spotted dolphins and whales from the large picture windows!just a short sharp walk up hill to come back from the beach just one block away.

This property is located in a quiet street away from the main town of Port Macquarie. The beach is a 5 minute walk with shops & cafe even closer. The panoramic views of the ocean were by far the jewel of the stay. We had everything we needed for our holiday. Thanks guys it was amazing

Tastefully renovated, large home in Lighthouse Beach. Great views. Very convenient location in walking distance to beach and great neighbourhood shops.On arrival the house obviously had not been occupied for some time. There were cobwebs on the windowsills and the floors were very dusty/dirty. I had to clean the house when I arrived. There were absolutely no cleaning products, soap or shampoo provided. It was Christas Eve and I had to go buy general use products for my family that should have been provided in a rental in that price bracket. It had to a stressful check in oeiod due to the fact our family were celebrating Christmas there.

Really enjoyable stay, we will book again. Modern, clean and comfortable beach house. Convenient location - short walk to beach and local shops and cafes. Beautiful views. Beds really comfy which was great after busy days exploring Port Macquarie. Some basic amenities included to get our stay off to a great start. Host easy to deal with.

The good - Glorious as advertised view with visibility of the whales migrating south - whale watching from the comfort of the loungeroom! Comfortable beds, heating/cooling worked well, comfortable seating and nicely decorated.
The not so good - Fridge broke down, fuse kept tripping the lights, very minimal supply of garbage bags, dishwashing tablets, toilet rolls, no supply of basics ie. sugar, salt, pepper, construction next door weekdays power tools begin at 7am Saturday 8am!

Fabulous week away for the school holidays. Spacious, modern and beautifully furnished. Very clean and generously equipped with everything we needed for our stay. Lovely comfy beds and we loved the coffee machine (and pods) and the air fryer in the kitchen. Beautiful deck to sit and take in the ocean views. Best cafe in town and local shops just around the corner. There was so much to keep the whole family entertained in Port Macquarie - the coastal walk is a must. We will book again!

One the positive side, the house is in a great location, close to the beach and local shops. It is roomy, with 4 bedrooms. The agent was quick to answer a call to fix the smoke alarm which was faulty when we arrived. Netflix access is provided.
However, amenities are the bare minimum - furniture is sparse, there is no BBQ. The outdoor deck is not under cover. The kitchen is not well equipped and there were some dishes put away dirty or left in the dishwasher. One of the toilet roll holders is falling off the wall. Most holiday rentals provide at least basics like salt, sugar, a spare toilet roll, but not this one - even the dishwashing detergent was almost empty. Overall disappointing in spite of the positives.

Reviewer Comments:
A great holiday spot, close to the beach with commanding water views. A lovely house! Also easy access to central Port Macquarie being only a short drive away. If you have time, do the coastal walk from the Lighthouse to Port Macquarie - this was spectacular.However, there are a couple of issues to note. Firstly, right next door, a new house is being built. Tradies are on-site from 7am (through to 3pm) so no chance of a "sleep in". I would have thought that this fact would have been contained in the property description as the house build has a long way to go before being completed. I am not sure I would have booked this particular home if I had been aware of the building work happening next door.Less of an issue was the fact that the air fryer hadn't been cleaned properly by the previous vacationer. And a suggestion for improvement would be for the owner to provide a vacuum cleaner.

Reviewer Comments:
The location was great, we would stay in that location again. I think they’re a few minor things that need to be mentioned. 1. Most rental properties have a key lock or similar to get in property and also the leave key. 2. There were no dishwasher tablets for dishwasher, there was only 1 garbage bag for inside waste. I also think there should be an all purpose spray to clean benches etc. we had to purchase all of them to keep the property clean. 3. The red bin hadn’t been emptied the previous week, therefore the bin was overflowing. 4. I received an email, re: most properties don’t have linen, we would need to bring it, I attempted to phone your office to confirm if we needed to take our linen, the office was unattended, so we took our own linen, which wasn’t required. It would be helpful if this email only went out to people who need to take Linen. 5. the reservation process was easy and the person I spoke to was helpful.

The place was nice and clean but needed a lot of attention to small details. No washing basket, no platters or salad servers. Not enough seating at table for 9 people and couldn’t eat meals together, eg Christmas lunch. No bins in toilets, No bbq for a holiday house, shade sails were missing on deck and the advertisement showed shade sails. Great location and very modern, and enjoyed the week. Thank you

Loved the house, very modern and comfortable. Amazing view and location - short stroll to beach and cafes/shops. House was spacious enough for the whole family, very clean and had a lovely deck where we had some meals while watching and listening to the ocean. We enjoyed cooking in the large and well equipped kitchen when we didn’t feel like dining out. Will definitely stay again soon.
