great house for families
Great house - stayed for family wedding. Modern and comfortable. Very disappointed though when we rang 2 months prior to booking that we couldn't change the dates....not cancel but change. Other houses still had 100% refund on cancellation.

Shoal Bay weekend
Beautiful home, quiet street setting in residential street, close to Shoal Bay town centre. The home was well equipped in all areas including the playground and table tennis table in the garage and several adult bikes. Kitchen was a dream with all appliances necessary for our large family, only shortfall was cutlery for 10 but all other items in abundance. Plenty of seating inside and out for large numbers, great sized bedrooms and bathrooms. Even an outdoor shower and fire pit. BBQ was a little on the small size considering the area allocated for catering outside. So we used the inside large stove top to assist. We had the best time.

The perfect house for a large group
We absolutely loved the property. It is luxurious. So clean and the house is decorated beautifully. The location is great. So much room for a group. Beautiful entertaining area. Only disappointment was trying to get in contact with property manager. Phone just constantly rings out everytime I tried to make contact. If you leave a msg they do get back to you usually within 24hrs but frustrating you can't get through when you need to.

Beautiful house for a big group
Gorgeous big house. Fabulous big kitchen and dining table. Great outdoor entertaining area. Very Clean. Comfortable beds. Modern design. 10 min walk to the Country Club/shops/beach. The only things that could be improved upon is a detailed instructions book. We couldn’t work out how to turn on the aircon downstairs or turn off the garden lighting which shone up and in through one of the upstairs bedrooms. The water pressure could be increased too. But we had a great stay and would definitely recommend this place.

Great family holiday house!
This house has everything you need for entertaining in large groups or families. Plenty of privacy and space to spread out but also lots of great entertaining spaces perfect for large groups and families. The contained backyard with playground and ping pong table was amazing for kids of all ages. Fire pit was great. Everything about this house was perfect for a weekend away or longer stay!

Cute family getaway
The location of our accomodation was convenient, it allowed us to visit various beaches that was just a short drive away. There was heaps of activities that we were also able to do e.g. quad biking at Williamtown, tobaggan hill park, swimming at the beach and visiting various lookouts. The best part of our holiday would definitely be our accomodation, it was very family friendly, fully equipped and was a lovely modern home away from home.
