Ratings and reviews
4.0 / 5.0
The property is located at the end of the canal and is quiet and very relaxing, Tte house is spacious with good sized bedrooms and an awesome large deck, so lots of room for all. The only downside not enough plates, cutlery and the pots and pans were damaged, so communication with the owner did take a while. The lights in the fans were not working and some problems with plumbing which was fixed. Hopefully the owner can be on top of these small issues

Cockroaches, cockroaches and more cockroaches.
We killed over 300 baby roaches, mostly around the dishwasher and fridge. Infestation would be the correct terminology. We had to buy baits to place in the kitchen area.
Other issues were that the fat drain on the barbeque was overflowing so we had to clean that out. In the ensuite to bathroom, the plug is broken in the sink so water drains out very slowly. Many of the towel racks and toilet roll holders need to be tightened. Missing pieces from light in 3rd bedroom and main bedroom light was broken. Leak in the laundry as well.
The house also needs more plates, cutlery and glasses.
Overall the house is well designed however the person who is running the property is not meeting the expectations for the cost of the property. If you are going to charge money for accommodation the very least you could do would be to answer any questions the prospective tenant has.
Overall if the owner lifted their game this would be a great place to stay.

Great house, well appointed, comfortable beds and spacious. Hot water was tepid and a slight crawling insect problem. On the whole, we were very happy.
3.0 / 5.0
The most outstanding feature of the house was its location, however there were a number features that were below par.
As mentioned in other reviews the BBQ gas bottle was empty, the cleanliness was not great, inadequate cutlery & crockery for a house that purports to sleep 10, lots of kitchen appliances but small pots & old frying pans, large tins of paint in the 2nd master bedroom.
I could list more inadequacies but you get the picture.
4.0 / 5.0
House is in a great location. We only had 4 adults, but it could easily sleep 2 families or up to 10 people.
However, the house is quite run down. Could really do with some money being spent on it. And as we had read in many other reviews, the bloody gas bottle was empty. When you pay good money to stay somewhere, you shouldn't have to spend more money to cook! And good luck getting any communication with the host. Overall, the house was good and i would recommend it. But the owner needs to fix the minor issues to start getting 5 star reviews.

Loved being on the water. Great size home.
NEEDS : more dishes as 10 people can stay but doesnt cater for them .
And the bed configuration is different to website.

3.0 / 5.0
We had a wonderful stay in the property, location wise it is great and not too far out of town. There are a few issues with the property however - the kitchen poorly stocked, not enough cutlery, wine glasses, pots etc. The hot water pressure was really awful and needs attention, as does the clothesline. Suggest owners spend some time and money on a little revamp/refresh in general as house could be a stand out. We loved our stay but at the price paid, there are some things you expect to have - like a good warm shower. 3.5 stars from us.
3.0 / 5.0
The house was in a great location and plenty of space. Well equipped for a family.
Had a few issues with the freezer not working, fridge not staying very cool, broken coffee machine that did not work and gas cylinder empty. None of it was fixed during the stay despite telling the property owner on day 1.
Property needs some general maintenance and clean up and perhaps some new bedding as sheets stained and thin.
It could be a very good property if properly maintained and cleaned.
4.0 / 5.0
This house is great to stay in. The beds are comfortable and the location is great and also quiet.
Just a couple of little things that need fixing, The fridge/freezer in the kitchen, the freezer doesn't freeze too well.
The blinds need fixing in the family room and the clothes-line needs to be fixed too.
Other than that, it's a great house to stay in. I would stay there again.
3.0 / 5.0
Location was spot on. Canal life is nice and peaceful. Communication with owner was poor. Only once did they answer our messages and that was when we let them know we had to actually replace a gas bottle that was completely empty upon arrival. The house itself was spacious and well laid out. However it was unfinished. Bedroom cupboards full of grout tubs and other maintenance equipment. Outside had spare parts, wheel barrow and shovels not put away. The kitchen was great but there were no bin bags. And for whatever reason the smoke alarms were not connected up. Overall we enjoyed our stay, however the place could’ve been presented little a bit better. Thanks.

We were in Exmouth as a group of 7 Adults & 2 Children. Great house for us to stay close to town plus great outside area for family times.
5.0 / 5.0
We had an amazing time staying here. The outdoor area was perfect for the kids to ride around on, close to all amenities, well set up house. Most enjoyable and we will definitely be back! Perfect to be South facing as you don’t get the afternoon hot sun in the entertaining area! Highly recommend

It is a great house. Very suited to our large family (2 parents, 4 adult children and 2 x 6 yr olds). Fabulous view. Very relaxing 😎
Easy access. No problems at all.

Location and overall property was good. Unfortunately fixtures and fittings were flimsy and bathrooms and toilets had not been cleaned properly. Also went to have a bbq but the gas bottle was completely empty. Which was confusing as there was a brand new bbq in the driveway.

Lovely house in the perfect location - water views but very close to shops etc. The house is spacious and beautifully finished off, with different breakout areas for different family needs. We really enjoyed our stay!
3.0 / 5.0
Great location.
Very comfortable and clean.
However it is impossible to contact the manager about issues such as no gas in the BBQ - why not have two cylinders with one always full.
With six adults staying for 5 nights, and having 3 rolls of toilet paper available was unacceptable.
All of the fire alarms went off at about 4 AM on the second last night for apparently no reason.
4.0 / 5.0
Great house for a family holiday with plenty of room for the seven of us, it felt like staying in a family house as opposed to staying in a resort or hotel. Many hours spent sitting and socialising outside with the view of the water way out the back of the house, in between having fun in the Exmouth area.

The property itself is lovely. Unfortunately had some issues with cleanliness, but owner was apologetic and explained it was due to previous guests not respecting the property.
The views of the sunset over the canals is amazing. Close proximity to town centre.
5.0 / 5.0
Great house, clean and perfect for two families. We had 9 people staying - 4 A & 5 C. Easy check in great spot to stay. Would of been better if we had a jetty also. Neighbors very lovely also. Definitely would stay again, we loved it

Lovely location to relax and enjoy to view of the canals. Property was comfortable and located well for proximity to Exmouth and other tourist locations.

We have stayed at this property three times in as many years. The first stay in 2019 was fantastic. The house was great and gaining access to it was easy.
In 2020 the house was good, however the communication with Amy was terrible. We weren't provided with the details as to how to access the property despite numerous attempts to make contact with Amy to no avail. Ultimately we went to the house around 5pm on the day we were due to check-in and were lucky to find a rear door unlocked so we got into the house. It turns out the number for Amy on the Stayz website is wrong (still incorrect to this day). Amy ultimately called around 8pm that night with the access details.
Our latest stay (October 2021) I had to chase the access details again as they were not sent. I sent a message via the Stayz link which wasn't answered until the day prior to access (Friday). Obviously that's acceptable as we we weren't due to check-in until the Saturday, however after the drama of 2020 I was anxious about making sure we weren't left standing on the door step.
This year however there were mice in the house (quite a few). It was common to see them running through the property and on a couple of nights they woke people up with their scurrying about. I text Amy about the fact she "has a mouse problem" on our 2nd to last day (correct number) and to this day have received no response.
The house is in a great location, however communication is clearly an issue (other reviews and my own experience) and now there appears to be rodent problems.
Bring a cat if you book! ;-)

Great location and really nice house could easily fit 2 families. Only complaint is was not the cleanest when we arrived, I vacuumed the floor twice to get all the dust and sand out everywhere was abit grotty could do with a good deep clean

The property was as described and great for a family holiday.
We have had no personal contact with the property manager, to the point we are beginning to think she does not exist. I have had issue with being overcharged for extra people that we did not have. The property manager advised by email that we would be refunded asap, but I have heard nothing further. Id appreciate some help from Stayz to follow this up for me.
1.5 / 5.0
Had to email property manager for Check in info on the day of arrival for details, with a quick response.
Place is a little worn and a number of items to improve. Dishwasher had a note saying it was broken & according to guest book had been not working for awhile) however after contacting the owners they had it replaced within a day. Gas bottle empty so had to replace, owners did reimburse but cleaner should have noted. Remote for the in main room not working due to corroded batteries.
The cutlery and crockery needs updating so many chipped plates and glasses and only enough for 8 people. No platters or containers for entertaining no plugs for sinks, and a mishmash of Xmas items thrown in. No broom to sweep or mop so not easy to keep clean.
Good location. Enough room for two families. Just needs a good spruce up.

Awful noise coming from the roof, every night
1.5 / 5.0
The house was fabulous and met all our needs and a 10 Person group. Beds and rooms great size and SUPER comfortable. Bins were full when we arrived and weren’t emptied until the second last day of our stay. There was no communication from property manager and we guessed the code for the keys on arrival. Kitchen is well set up, toy box for the kids and colouring table in the corner was great for amusing the kids. The house doesn’t have its own jetty as yet, but the double gate entry to the water way was good for small children.
2.5 / 5.0
Very well presented property, Clean and tidy with everything you need. Very well equipped for familys with younger kids and safe as double gates to access water from out the back of property. We will definitely be staying again!
1.5 / 5.0
Very poor communication from owner. No details how to access property, we arrived and had to work it out ourselves. Phone number given to contact owner on the stayz site is wrong number. Even when I rang stayz they couldn't contact owner. No gas for BBQ the whole week we stayed. A booklet that should be in clear view on arrival with all info needed,was found in a draw with a whole lot of paper and rubbish on the last day of our stay. Cleaning of property was not up to scratch when paying that much money to stay there.
0.5 / 5.0
On arrival bedding was not changed from previous guests with blood stains found at the end of the king bed sheets and food stains on the other bedding. In the draws rodent droppings . As we were not provided with clean bedding I had to wash my kids ones out.
