Great property for a family with dog and location is very close to beach and coffee shops and restaurants

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Generally when renting pet friendly accommodation we lower our expectations on the property. So in this case I was happy to look beyond all the mould on the ceilings however I was dumbfounded to find that the property was not fenced (even though we were told it was). As a result we couldn’t do some of the full day activities booked as we couldn’t leave the dog inside for a full day. I think it is reasonable to expect any property with pet friendly in the name would have appropriate fencing and when I say appropriate I mean any boundary fencing at all!

The property was in a great location and very close to the beach, restaurants and shops.The reason I have given the property a 3 star rating was due to the fact the lawn had not been mowed. The gardener lives next door and asked if it would be possible to do the lawns during our stay which was fine .I just felt that the lawns should have been done before our arrival.Not only did he do the lawns but spent the afternoon trimming the front bushes.It was very noicey when you are trying to relax.In saying this though great home and location.

The house was great and perfect for a group of friends spending a weekend away. However, a little unclean in areas particularly the floor and a few repairs are needed to general structure of the house. We also needed to ring up to get the linen package sent that was suppose to already be there on arrival but the staff were very friendly and apologetic. Other than that stuff we had a wonderful time! Perfect kitchen being fully equipped.

As far as bang for bucks go, this property has a lot to offer. It's large, pet friendly and is situated 3 minutes walk to the small township and the huge beach in the bay. There is so much to do in the area and it's all in very close proximity, even though you would think that you're isolated at the end of the line, so to speak. The property itself is an older house that has well and truly been used, but is homely with a huge kitchen and lovely bathroom. Our stay was over a very hot weekend and unfortunately for us the hot water service decided to give out leaving us having cold showers, but on the plus side, the air conditioner worked well and with the added ceiling fans, made our stay comfortable.

As our time in shoal bay was enjoyable and nothing but amazing, our accommodation was defiantly not a highlight of the trip. We first arrive to our accommodation and was greateed by a trail of ants across the kitchen bench. You could tell where they only vacuumed as there was dust and fluff collected in places that wasn’t cleaned properly and was easy access for cleaning aplliences to reach. The beds were horrible. Basically a foam mattress on all beds! The sofa bed when you pulled it out you were quick to put it back with the amount of collected rubish/dust/fluff behind it. The house smelt as if it had been damp and no windows opened to air it out, paint was peeling and blinds had mould on them and majority of them not funcational. They had new blinds sitting in the kitchen (looks like they had been there for a while with the amount of dust on them). We were left with the linen to make our own beds, and washing machine isn’t very functional, turns on by that’s about as far as we could get it. We loved the house but there is a lot of improvements that could be made to make it more enjoyable for future tendents

Spacious clean home in great location. The whole fam loved it.
