Everything as promised, it was a clean retro style cosy home with beutiful ocean view. Property manager just a phone call a way. Very friendly and helpful. My friends and I enjoyed our stay at Pelican view.

House described as retro, which is in keeping with the style, however, the house was in a state of disrepair and not clean. The first thing you noticed upon opening the front door, was an overpowering, mouldy, manky odour. The bedrooms had reasonable bedding but the pillows did not all have internal covers and the pillows were yellow and stained. The spare blankets smelled revolting and could not be used, but were hung outside to air, and remove their odour from the house. Piles of dust under beds and even discarded ear plugs, from previous guests, on bedroom floor. Carpet throughout the house was worn and in many places, completely threadbare. Cracked tiles in bathroom, which was damp with no exhaust fan. Entry steps were not entirely secure. Kitchen was well equipped but nothing could remove the horror of discovering crockery, with a layer of mould. Lovely view over rooftops, of ocean. Beautiful walk to rock, rubble wall, along a busy road, blocking access to beach. Fibreglass seals in gas heater in lounge room, were hanging uselessly inside heater, making it, in my opinion, unsafe to use. Games room described in property description was a shed with a leaky roof, burnt out, rusted, unusable pot belly stove. This house was in a reasonable location with plenty of potential, however, it appears, that there is no accountability or checks on quality. The house commanded a high price, way above the quality of the accommodation. I have many photos to support my claims, unfortunately there is no capacity for them to be uploaded in this review. As a result of this unpleasant experience, I would be reluctant to book, through Stayz, in future.

It was a great stay nice and cosy with really good views and because it was raining we stayed inside and we were very comfortable

A very clean and neat property with lovely views of the bay. Comfortable beds and a well stocked kitchen made the stay more enjoyable. A pleasant 4 days in a quiet and peaceful corner of Portland.

We will be back to stay again but longer next time 👍😀

Place felt real homey. The beds were very comfortable. Loved the coffee pod machine and 2L milk on arrival. Enjoyed the short walks to the beach in the morning. Had a great time and will stay again.

The house literally has everything that we need! We can enjoy the sea view from almost every room in the house, absolutely beautiful! My son didn’t even want to leave the beautiful house! The beddings are so comfortable as well. Special thank you to Denis and Helen. We left one of our bags behind. Denis rang us straight away and offered to post the bag back to us with no extra cost. We really appreciated it! :)

Checkin was very easy and we were great full for condiments

Very comfortable house with everything you need. The dogs loved the big backyard! Would stay again.

Very relaxing stay. The fire and views were so enjoyable.

Feels like coming home! Love the personal touches, has everything you need for a stress free stay. Plenty of room for the boat, major plus!

Thank you for your hospitality

It was clean, extremely well stocked (coffee pods, tea, sugar milk shampoo cleaning stuff etc) and has really nice views, Denis was a delight to deal with we just didn't have any hassles. The waters hot, the heater strong Large TV we wanted for nothing will come back

Need to upgrade mattress as current one are not comfortable Same with dinning sets Else nothing to complain

We had a nice stay over the Christmas break. Beautiful views, and very cool retro furniture gives the place a bit of character. Bathroom and garage with table tennis needs updating, & the hot water would run out by night, which we were warned about, but overall, a very pleasant stay. Thanks Dennis

Neat, warm and comfortable house. Would definitely go back again.

Great place to stay. The house is well maintained and the beds were very comfortable.

Was a wonderful house and a very relaxing stay

very happy

It is not easy these days to find a holiday home which provides for a large trailer boat and pets. We found this great quiet house in Portland which suited our needs perfectly. We had great views of Portland Bay and the Harbour from the lounge, dining and bedrooms. The house was very clean and comfortable making any length of stay that much more enjoyable. The kitchen was fully equipped including dishwasher and basic grocery items. Additional towels and blankets were provided. A seperate laundry with washing machine came in handy. The back yard was secure and accessible. The driveway was wide and long allowing for one or more large trailer boats to be parked off street easily and securely. Highly recommend.

Impeccably clean, comfy beds.. Holiday homey.. Exactly as expected.. Had a peaceful and great time.
