Great location, great views and plenty of room.
We walked down the track to the Pier Hotel for dinner and got the shuttle back up the hill.
Plenty of walking tracks close by and short drive into town.
We would book this again without hesitation.

Mid Winter Christmas break for life long friends
Loved everything about this place. 2 lounges are wonderful. Would love to come back in summer to enjoy the outdoor bbq area. Observation from the one who slept in one of the single beds. Perfect for kids but not the over 70s.😉

Good place and beautiful morning sunrise!
Location is very good, you can enjoy the beautiful sunrise and seashore. But the kitchen equipment are not perfect. The stove is not powerful enough. Overall It's a pretty good house! Love it!

Panaromic Views
A liitle further from the sea than the photos suggest ( perhaps should state this in the advert however the views are great .. Great walking track from the house right over to south bay and back ..house was nice and tidy when we arrived .. Heaps of packing and turning area .. Nice a quiet area ..

We really enjoyed our stay here. We were 6 - 8 adults in their 30s and the house was a perfect size for us. From one of the pictures, we thought that the beach was literally across the street, which it wasn't - this was the only minor disappointment but we didn't mind as the views were outstanding and we weren't far from the beach anyway. One minor issue was dealt with promptly. Overall, a great house with great communication at a reasonable price. Highly recommend
