Brilliant Family Getaway
We stayed as an extended family for a 70th Birthday and we were not disappointed! Ages ranging from 3 years old to 70 years old, the house was perfectly set up to cater for us all. In a great location, the home was just right for 12 of us - the bedrooms were very generous in sizing, and the kitchen and living spaces more than enough. Air Conditioning made our stay very comfortable. The outdoor area is where this house really shines - we spent majority of our time outside. Swimming in the pool, and eating meals in the entertaining area. Overall a truly beautiful home that had all that we needed for our stay, and would not hesitate to stay again!

Beautiful retreat
Great location, gorgeous house in an idylic area. Our extended family stayed altogether here and there was space for everthing. Kids, big and small, loved the pool house, multiple tvs and lounges, pool and facilities. Highly recommend. 👌

Xmas holiday
We had a great week and would recommend this place for a great holiday. Maybe a large platter for fruit/ salad but we managed. Watering system in garden doesn’t seem to be doing a good job but maybe that is lack of pressure in the area!

A mini resort.
We were a group of various ages, but the accommodation covered all our needs. The older ones had a relaxing and enjoyable stay while the younger ones found plenty to keep themselves occupied.

Dirty on arrival
Our stay was disappointing to say the least. Our yearly family vacation was booked a year in advance with much excitement however we arrived to a property that was probably one of the dirtiest we ever saw. We spent the first day of our holiday sanitizing, vacuuming and mopping (yes we had to even purchase our own mop) cleaning hair out of drawers and shelves even cleaning toilets. The property is also a lot older and ‘worn’ than it appears in the images. When we told management of the state of the property when we arrived we were offered a cleaning fee (a few hundred dollars) for the time we spent cleaning, and then made to feel it was our fault as we spent a day cleaning instead of notifying management immediately. In this day in age, we would expect a ‘luxury’ accomodation to hold cleanliness and sanitation to the an upmost standard however this wasn’t the case. I would urge anyone looking at this property to keep looking for something else!

Good location
Property is well maintained with 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms 2 living areas plus large BBQ area and games area outdoors. It's a 10 minute walk to shoal bay beach. The only issue I had related to the company managing who sent numerous emails about outstanding money that had been paid, when I tried to clarify no one got back to me either phone or email. Would recommend the premises itself.

Extended family get away
Beautiful, big comfortable house for an extended family holiday. Lots of space inside & out to gather in large or small groups. Very clean and as described. The communication with the managing agent was difficult prior to checkin as they were converting their systems & were not receiving my emails & sending me several requests of items already provided. Also kitchen was not very well stocked for a large groups. They did not even provide olive oil, or very many tea bags and sugar.

Wedding weekend
Such a great property for our long wedding weekend. We had 11 people stay for 4 nights, plenty of room for everyone, great pool, great seperate space out the back for a bbq and drinks. Only issue is neighbours behind like to complain about noise - police came once in response to noise complaint, however they weren’t concerned with us, apparently the same people complain every weekend, just doing their job. Would highly recommend
