Overall good experience, will definitely be staying here again! nice property, good location and lovely owner :)))
6.0
Good location and clean apartment. However, we do have few concerns
1. Me and my wife are 74 and 72 years old. We found very difficult to walk up the ramp and walking again up to 2 more levels.
2. No external lights in front of the property. When we arrive in the night, after parking the car in the garage, it was pitch dark outside and found difficult to climb up the ramp.
3. The microwave oven in the kitchen cannot be reached by short people. It is placed at a level above the fridge which can be used only by people of more than 165cm+of height.
4. The air conditioner / Heater unit upstairs was out of order. The power point was taped around so that no one can use it due to some fault.
5. It would have been good if there were complementary tea / coffee? milk etc in the kitchen for the first day.
6. There was no bread toaster in the kitchen. As soon as we woke up in the morning we had to go to outside restaurant for coffee and breakfast.
The above matters should be considered and rectified asap.

Property was not clean, stains on couch, burnt food left in microwave, spider webs all around top balcony after i emailled the owner night before to make sure property was clean. Up stairs air conditioner broken, we were not told nor was it listed as broken in the Stayz listing. Got very hot upstairs. Please bring your own clean linen, would not recommend using the ones at the property.TV did not pick up channel 9 missed the AO Tennis and channel 10. TV was flickering freezing on most stations. Seriously a 300 dollar outdated sanyo tv. Smart TV would be expected you need to upgrade ASAP.Current pictures of the property are 10 years old and do not represent true condition. Strongly suggest alternative accomodation. Messaged owner about these problems to which she replied i will talk to the cleaner. Broken Air conditioner / TV issues have nothing to do with the cleaner. Just fix the problems so the next guests do not have to live in such filth.

We booked having not been on a family holiday in years but constantly doing day trips to Torquay. I must say was a perfect location not too far from all the necessities we needed and was perfect for our little family. Couldn't recommend a better place to stay. Thanks again.

Great communication with owner. Location is good and layout is ok for a family. The only concern was the cleanliness, which I raised with the owner who promised to speak to their cleaners for future guests.
6.0
The location of the property and communication with the Property Manager were both excellent, however the online photographs of the unit are not current and sadly do not reflect the true condition of property. The units balcony off the kitchen was unusable as it and the outdoor setting were dirty, covered in cobwebs and leaves and had grasses/weeds growing from the timbers. The towels provided were not fresh and a couple were "yellowed" with age. A second doona we found was covered in what appeared to be chocolate and could not be used. The cupboard in bed 2 was dirty and had an empty "Kit Kat" wrapper in its base. Some of the crockery in the kitchen was found to be greasy (possibly from takeaway meals), the kitchen table is delaminating along its edges. In general it was a disappointing experience for the money spent which could be easily addressed for future customers with a bit of basic care and maintenance to the property and a provision of clean and updated bedding and towels.
4.0
Property was clean and tidy, however found a few things lacking in general.
- sofa bed broken ( child had to sleep on sofa as it wouldn’t convert to a bed it was broken)
- front door latch fell apart and bathroom handle catches (kids kept getting stuck in bathroom)
-only 1 toilet which is in bathroom ( not convenient for 5 people)
-lucky to get 2 showers before the hot water ran out ( had to run kettle to do dishes!)

A nice place for a quick holiday
I spent two nights here with my nephews. The checkin process and communication with the owner was really easy and straightforward. The place was really nice! Clean and lots of space. There’s a great balcony overlooking the park across the road. I was really happy with the place and would definitely stay there again!

Perfection
We loved this place as it has a park across the road with a playground, 3 minute drive to shops and eateries and 800 m from the water. Modern accommodation and lovely management. Will be back definitely.

Great place.Modern and spacious with a lovely outlook over the park. About 10 mins walk to beach. Comfortable soft beds and a fitted out kitchen. Could do with a fan in the bathroom and bedrooms and an umbrella on the balcony. Yet very pleasing place to stay

Short stay in Jan Juc
We had a nice short break. Spacious (2 living areas on different levels!) and well positioned property. Short distance to the sea side and walking tracks. Just a short drive to Torquay centre. Thank you. Sure to be back again.

Great weekend away
Very clean and comfortable townhouse. Had everything we needed including toilet paper!!!
Beds were a little too soft for our liking but still good.
Deck off the kitchen was great just needed a good leaf cleaning and cobweb removal.
T.v was a little hit and miss with reception but we have had this issue in Torquay before.
Noela was great with communication which made it very easy to find the lock box and enjoy our weekend.
Definately would stay again. Great location with easy walking tracks nearby.

great and close to the beach
We spent a great week and a bit here during summer. Location is awesome, walking distance to beach for swimming and to the shops, and short drive into Torquay for everything else. Place itself is very easy and functional, AC, wifi, kitchen, washing machine, etc. This place let us do exactly what we wanted to do: surf each morning and relax each afternoon!

Great property across from park and beach
This was a great last min find for us and reasonably priced for over new years. The property was spacious enough for 4 adults and a two year old for 4 nights. Upstairs rooms can get hot over night, we luckily through a fan in the car last min. The park and beach right across the road was perfect. A bbq on the deck could be a great addition. Overall a lovely place to stay.
