Calm and relaxing trip
It was a great waterfront spot with a great fishing jetty right out front. Even though it was mostly raining the entire time we were there, it was a great place to hang out with some friends. We noticed that there were a few spiders and cockroaches crawling around but i guess that was to be expected from the rain. Overall, great place and lots of beds for groups that wanna just chill in a cozy apartment.

Yes Vincent hit the nail on the head… with the crazy wet weather has come the odd cockroach. So we booked the pest man to sort this and they have gone!

Spectactular view
The property was exactly as described & very clean. It worked perfectly for us as a family of 5 that stayed 1 night to attend a family function held nearby. The view was lovely especially the colours at sunrise. The kids enjoyed a swim & we even saw a stingray.

Lovely Getaway!
We were four adults and one 3-year old and had beds for everyone. We were very comfortable and the view was amazing - especially at sunset. The friendly owners were very interested in making sure we had everything that we needed. The place was very close to a lot of beaches - Green Patch was great to see local birds and kangaroos. And close to shops as well. Overall we had a nice and relaxing time! Thank you!

Lovely location and arrival . Dated decor and needed a good clean out of trinkets etc felt like my nannas place. Bathroom clean and tidy . Kitchen appliances needed to be cleaned to remove finger marks ie dishwasher and fridge. Spacious and lovely lake views .

I’m sorry that our nautically themed ‘trinkets’, very popular with most guests were not to your taste. I do wonder how a bedroom suite and leather lounge should be considered grandparentish- I do consider that a bit presumptuous of you. I will apologise that I may have omitted a final wipe down if exterior surface of fridge and dishwasher but glad you could see the cleanliness we provide overall. We hope you enjoyed the complimentary bottle of wine and chocolates we provided .

Serenity plus!
Stunning water views from this cute, comfortable accommodation with a spacious bedroom. We loved the quiet surrounds with just birdsong and ducks quacking interrupting the quiet. Breakfast was a real treat with delicious pastries from Kraken bakery up the road enjoyed while gazing out over the view. Highly recommend for a relaxing getaway and as a base for exploring this beautiful area.

What a beautiful place to be
This property was neat and well equipped, We met David and he was absolutely a champion, helped us getting our boat into the water and out , was very prompt in addressing any requests we had. The location of the apartment was excellent and it made our first visit to St Georges Basin very much worth it. Thank you Al/ Amal

Pre Easter Stay
Enjoyed the stay, great views and David and Sharon really went out of their way for us. Property was great but did have a slight problem with an all night party across the road one night and the neighbourhood dogs howled and barked all night on another night.

Thanks for the review, unfortunately we were not around for your stay and therefore were unable to see if we could have influenced the neighbours party to quiet down. On the plus side we believe that was their final time before moving . Pretty sure the dogs are also moving.

This was our second visit to David and Sharons place and it was just as nice as the first one. The house is in such a lovely spot with the lake view and David is a very welcoming host. He even went and boutht a cooking termometer we could use 10 minutes after I afsked him, if there was one in the house. Would definately recommend to visit 😊

Very pleasant stay
What a location! That view is very mesmorising..... easy to idle away the day. Extremely clean property and the owners have thought of everything. They even had firewood which we made good use of. The only thing missing (and it may just have been a case of me not finding it) was insect spray. With the little rain we got, the flys came along with it. Really cant fault the place and would certainly recommend it to others. Thanks David and Sharon
