Really well set up, everything thought of and lovely personal touches everywhere. Plenty of space for a family or group of friends. Clean and tidy. Great communication with the owner.
close walk to a sandy beach and Tidal pool.
Short drive to town.
Only negatives are lack of rails on entrance steps and non slip shower mats needed.
Overall a great place to stay and would highly recomend it.
Would stay here again!
Thank you for a lovely stay!

The house is lovely to stay in and a great place to rest your head (and legs) after a day out exploring the Island. The house is well appointed with more space than your average holiday house. We did have issues with the TV reception but it wasn't much. A very quiet location with friendly neighbours.

Amazing
Considering the terrible circumstances of the worst bushfires that KI has ever see, the property was immaculate & in such a convenient location. We unfortunately had 2 cut our stay short by 3 days & Sarah was outstanding in communication & understanding. I, seriously can't recommend their property or service enough. We wish we could have stayed the entire time. It was comfortable, clean & well provisioned. We greatly appreciate everything that Sarah has done for us & hope to visit again. Kind Regards

neat and tidy and everything there for a comfortable stay
The home was perfect for our needs for this trip! Great layout with two living areas, spacious and everything was there that you need! the kitchen was fully decked out and first place I've stayed at where there was actually a reasonable amount of pots and pans and utensils! It was so handy to have all the linen provided as one less thing to have to take along in the car too. Very handy location and quite central to most attractions. Would definitely stay there again if we get back to K.I in the future. Thanks for providing home away from home!

Review
The property is very much as presented on line, and is a well equipped, well located holiday home.
The host Sarah is very informative and helpful, and readily responds to any requests or comments.
There were nice touches of wine and chocolates, and plentiful supplies, minimising the need to bring your own. Thanks Sarah, much appreciated.

The house was very well equipped and very clean and we loved having extra toilet paper, soap and washing powder.Perhaps a water proof mattress protector on one of the kids bunks would have been the only minor issue we had.A very enjoyable stay and we would come back here again and highly recommend this to our friends.

Hi Sarah, your house was fantastic. I couldn't have asked for a better holiday. It was so lovely to come home at the end of the day to a clean, spacious and comfortable home. The whole family felt at home and were very relaxed.
The girls want to go back they had a great time. They especially loved the beds. They all said that the beds were very comfy. Better than any other holiday that they have been on. A well rested child is usually a happy child. What more could one ask for?
Thank you again. We hope to holiday at your home again when the chance arises.
Kind regards
Sharon & Family
