Plenty of outdoor space both back and front areas, beautiful big fully undercover verandahs, outdoor fridge a huge bonus, excellent seating, quiet area, walking distance to Horseshoe Bay, plenty of room for 6 people (bit of a push with one small bathroom) outdoor shower was bliss, would definitely go back if it was available.

Food expired 5+years ago and we were locked out

Food expired 5+years ago and we were locked out

Poor communication through staff. Early check in organised but locked out as we arrived with a baby and toddler. No phone service to call. We borrowed the neighbours phone to call manager. No apology just a simple palm off of blame. We enjoyed the house and property itself but leaving a used hand soap from previous stay doesn't seem very sanitary. Could have been a simple mistake but then we noticed basic food supplies that were out dated by 5+ years! Instantly made us feel uncomfortable and dirty, ecspecially seeing as we were staying with young kids. I imagine common sense would prevail and this would be rectified. We assume the bare minimum is acceptable for this property. We won't be back and would not recommend testing your luck

Perfect little get-away!

Perfect little get-away!

We had a wonderful time in this tidy little holiday home. The house was lovely and dog friendly, with a great yard for our two greyhound. The house is very well appointed and had everything we needed. The neighbouring dogs were very barky (obviously no fault of this property owner or manager) - so while we managed with our inside dogs, it made sitting outside less pleasant than it otherwise could have been.

5 star getaway

5 star getaway

The property is very well set out. The amenities were fabulous! Very clean house and patios. The one downside was the dogs next door and their constant barking. We feel this isn’t the properties problem which is why we still have it 5 stars.

Family weekend

Family weekend

The property is ideally situated. Lots of room. Only the lounge area has an air conditioner so the couples wanting to close their door & have privacy had no cool air & the small fan on the wall really wasn’t sufficient. It would have been nice if some basic staples were supplied. Eg some coffee sachets & hand soap. No contact was made to us from the booking company. We had no idea who to contact. I had to google the name on the confirmation email I received & received a hit for compass property group who I rang for instructions. They did apologise for not contacting. Fortunately it was a Friday & their office was open. Overall a good stay. Just a few items need attention but for the age of the house it was ok but they are safety issues. Such as the hot water is scalding hot. Be careful with young children. The hotplate heat settings are the opposite of what you’d expect ie number 1 is the highest setting not lowest. Would stay again. Good quiet location & pet friendly. Thank you.

Really enjoyed staying at this property. The beds were so comfortable and it was a great location. The shower needed some plumbing attention, but other than that everything was excellent.

This home was easy to settle into, and had everything we needed. Sitting down to FOXTEL at night was a bonus. Great location, we parked the car and used our bikes to get around. So easy and close to Horshoe Bay and shops. We would definitely choose to stay here again.

You get what you pay for.

You get what you pay for.

The property is in a very quiet street with an array of wildlife, and a great yard for the dog. On arrival, there was no key, so we couldn't leave the house until the following morning. One aircon to cool an entire house. Uncomfortable beds, can not sit two people on the couch, small shower, and evidence of previous tenants or guests. It's ok for the price that you pay, but we'll be looking elsewhere next time we visit.

Pet Friendly pre-fab house

Pet Friendly pre-fab house

On the plus side, if you are travelling with pets, this place has fully enclosed yard with grass and good outdoor facilities (seating & bbq area) and is very pet friendly. The house itself is of basic design, cheaply furnished with very small bedrooms and soft saggy beds. The sofa is so uncomfortable, for example, you would not want to sit on it at all. However, it is just a few minutes to Horseshoe Bay with bars and cafes and all the outdoor activities. If you don't intend to spend much time indoors and are travelling with pets then you might want to consider this place but to be honest there are nicer and better value places on the island.
