We enjoyed our stay and very much liked that 7 of us all had our own bedroom.
Beds were comfy however short in length. The lounge is very uncomfortable and difficult to get out of. House gets no sunshine at all and is very dark inside. The home is in a very convenient location to town, Woolworths, restaurants and beach.
Improvements would be more bathmats, light over range hood didnt work, one bedside lamp not working, lots of noise throughout the night, some games would be nice and books. Kitchen reasonably well equipped but teflon saucepans need replacing as very scratched.
Hard to adhere to no noise restrictions after 9pm outside when surrounding neighborhood was noisy with loud music and building. Not sure i would return.

Outstanding property, so close to town and the beach, rear access to a laneway that's great for the kids scooters and bikes. This house is a real stunner, We highly recommend and will be back.
The property itself was great. Roomy, spacious and total functionality for the time we were there. It was close enough to the city centre that walking to shops etc. was great.
The water pressure in all showers was absolutely horrendous. It was very difficult to physically get fully wet in the showers. The mist of water often left it very hard to judge the temperature. If anyone else used the water at the same time, water pressure would become non existent. Additionally, if the cold water was used, your shower would become roasting hot and burn. Regulation of water temperature needs to be looked at.
The lounge in the family room was very difficult to get in/out of. 1 grandparent was stuck trying to get up which caused distress to them.
For the majority of the stay it was a great place to be.
