The location and views from the balcony were excellent. It was a great house to accommodate a group of friends for Easter, however, a few easy updates would justify the price point (better pots and pans, better ironing board, working washing machine etc). Communication with the host was also excellent.

We had a relaxing week at Port Willunga Dreaming - walks to the beach, wines on the balcony and fabulous meals in the area. We were pleased with the upgraded lounge furniture too!

The property was not ready for check-in, not cleaned and beds not made. Unkept, dated and in some cases broken, finishes and furnishings. Unmatched, chipped /old crockery and cutlery. Master bathroom new and lovely. Comfortable beds and nice linen. House location and view amazing. Property agent responded quickly and managed to resolve most issues within 24 hours. Great potential but not worthy of luxury listing or the price I paid.

This property exceeded our expectations and was everything we hoped it would be for our special family holiday. The kitchen was well equipped and the beds comfortable. The layout of the rooms was perfect for a large group with plenty of space to spread out. We have no hesitation in recommending it and hope one day to return.

Booked last January and managed to get a slot over Christmas/New Year week. Everything was as promised with the property and the view/location is exceptional. Only challenge is volume of passing traffic (on the esplanade) and associated noise during major holiday periods but this is obviously the same for all homes. Would definitely book again.

Great location and very comfortable
Great location and very comfortable
A very comfortable house in a great location. I’m not sure that I would class it as ‘luxury’ - the kitchen was not that well provisioned and the deck and outdoor furniture is very tired - but it is very comfortable and homey.
