5.0 / 5.0
Awesome location, ideal for our family reunion. Plenty of space, great outdoor flow, close to the beach, loved that the bach had toys and sports equipment.
.
Note, and not for publishing, the nails in the wooden pathway need rehammering down, currently a potential safety risk for anyone in barefeet.
4.0 / 5.0
Great location and lovely Bach.
We were rather surprised we had to drive 3 km out of town to dispose of our rubbish (and pay) or be charged $100 - this should be part of the charge made for the property.
5.0 / 5.0
We stayed at this property with my immediate family (2 adults, 2 teens) + my sister and my elderly parents to attend a wedding in the area. We also brought our small dog with us.
It housed us comfortably and having the two bathrooms was ideal.
The check in process was simple. Communication was easy and they gave us helpful advice on how to find someone in the local area to look after our dog while we were at the wedding.
The house has all you could possibly need, very well equipped. It does say it's fully fenced and the only issue we had was we couldn't just let the dog out (miniature schnauzer) in the yard and not worry, as there were a few holes in the side fence she could get through, under the main gate across the driveway, and under the house. A toddler would be ok.
House was very clean (except the shower glass could do with a treatment).
Excellent location, very short walk to beach and Blackies cafe only 100m down the road.
Would highly recommend.

5.0 / 5.0
Had a good time at the property , only real faults were one of the glass shower doors was off and left leaning against the wall so things got a little wet when in use , though property manager did infofm me a door was not right and was hopefully going to fixed.
A good sized place for our group of 10 and plenty of room for everyone. Nice to have a nice big deck also though the umbrella had seen better days.
Location was perfect and was in amongst the action All in all a nice place and a nice holiday .
3.0 / 5.0
Overall giving this place/experience an average review, as there was so much good about it, + sooo much that needs to be improved.
To start with the good....
The location is simply amazing, just outside of town a 1 minute drive or 10 minute walk. 30 seconds to the beach. Center of everything for surf and beach.
The house itself is super cute, and has a fantastic layout. Kids on one side of the house and adults on the other side. Loved this. Open floor plan, large open windows and doors, huge front yard to run around, tons of stocked beach toys and bbq accessories, the bbq and pizza oven. This place just has so much going for it.
Now the bad...
And I must start by saying -- this trip almost didnt happen as the property manager CANCELLED on me, the morning of my reservation, during a cyclone!! Was a frantic morning of back and forth and waiting, only to end up staying at the house. Thank god we had a place to stay, but what a terrible 'welcome' and check in.
Now the house -- HOLY FLYS!!!!
Bugs, flys, mosquitoes, you name it, just everywhere. A big draw of this house is there are 2 fell walls of windows/doors in the kitchen & living room that can be opened, but good lord are there a ton of flys everywhere. We could not kill enough of them, and eventually kept the doors closed which was a bummer. This also had nothing to do with the trash, which is not enclosed in the house, as they were honestly everywhere but the trash - the floors, the windows, the coffee table, the counter tops, you name it. Overall made me think the house just needs a real deep cleaning.
Now the list of broken things around the house....
Both shower doors were broken, with 1 being completely unusable throughout our stay and the second barely usable.
The sliding doors previously mentioned are not sealed correctly, so during a rain water comes inside the house.
The outside umbrella was broken and completely unusable, so no shade on the lovely outdoor deck the entire time.
The wall heaters either dont work to emit any heat AT ALL, or get lava hot and will scold you upon touching it. Also note they sit at about 2.5ft in height, or perfect for an adult to burn their hands, and a child to burn their face. DO NOT USE THESE.
This house is fantastic but just seems like it has been used and abused over the years and in need of some serious upkeep. If they did, i would stay here again, but in the same condition i would not. Just hope they dont cancel on you

Great comfortable place a stones throw away from the beach. Location was perfect can highly recommended.

We had a wonderful relaxing week away staying at this fabulous home only 1 block away from the beach. Awesome deck to entertain on. Easy walking distance to town. Loved being so close to the beach to carry the surfboards down.
Comfy beds and great kitchen. Will definitely book again.
5.0 / 5.0
We had the most amazing stay here over Christmas - the location is amazing, an easy walk into town and also right by the beach (and the surf club so there are lifeguards too). We had many a fun evening on the deck out the front using the fire/bbq. The property is all fenced so it’s great for little kids too. This place is awesome and we will be back (I hope!)

Lovely bach. Very comfortable and clean. Couldn't find any tea towels?
2.0 / 5.0
Gr8 location, but house had mould issues the smell on arrival and every time we can back into the house was awful, sheets on bed smelt because of dampness and one bedroom had stained sheets.
Needed a good spring clean skirtings and headboards, shower doors not working properly
For an anyone with breathing issues dust and mould the worst.
We have stayed in a few b&b in this price bracket and this property just didn’t cut it and a bit more loo paper wouldn’t go amiss only there 2 nights and had to go buy some

Nice property. The beds were very clean and comfortable. Close to beach. Would have given a 5 star rating but we were let down by one or two minor inconveniences of which I have relayed to the owner.
5.0 / 5.0
Friendly people and neighborhood. The home itself is beautiful so much space. Everything you needed in a kitchen was there and available, the outdoor seating and set up was perfect for us to sit out and enjoy each other's company relaxing and eating. The town, the local dairy and the beach were all within 2min or less walking distance. The only disappointment you would get from staying here is having to have to go home! We miss it already and cannot wait to come back again next year. Thank you Hayley for letting us stay in your beautiful home.
