Wonderful spacious home.

We loved staying at Large Coastal Retreat. Communication was fantastic, Lynette was very responsive and she even left little gifts for our children. The pool is large and was clean. The kitchen is well equipped with oil, spices, salt and pepper available. There is a coffee machine with pods. The washer and dryer were very handy. Pool towels are not supplied so BYO and the air conditioning works very well, some of the bedrooms have ceiling fans (not the main bedroom). It is 4 minutes by car to the local shops. I was surprised given the size of the home that the upstairs living room does not have a couch or TV, its an open bare living space. There is one couch and one TV in the downstairs living room.

Family gathering

Had a great stay, plenty of room, lovely and clean. A BBQ and more seating in the lounge room would have been great. Otherwise we were all very happy. Thank you for letting us stay.

Absolute dream holiday house

I stayed here with my family members and young children and we absolutely loved everything about it! Such a clean and cosy house not 1 thing to fault. The pool outside was clean and quite big to fit everyone to have a nice swim There was a large glass barrier around the pool for safety for the children which is what attracted me most to the house. The house itself was spotless clean we all loved it. Will definitely be back next year!!
