We loved staying at this property. It has everything you need with a quiet neighbourhood but still so close to all the action of Glenelg. Enough room for kids or a group. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay again!
We had everything we needed, nice and clean and great position, our pet dog enjoyed the stay especially walking alongside the river.
Within walking distance to the Glenelg cafes restaurants and beach.

Sensational!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in your beautiful house! Thank you so much for a much needed girls weekend away!. We very much appreciate having such a beautiful place to stay in an amazing location! A perfect place for a family - great location, clean and most importantly safe!
A clean and tidy home with everything you could ask for (great heating/cooling, large kitchen, etc.) close to the sea and Jetty Road. Highly recommended.
Perfect little house for the weekend. My partner didn’t like the mattress found it hard but other than that it had everything we needed during our stay

Great property
We ( a family of four from Sweden)stayed in this great property four weeks.
Perfect location with walking distance to lovely Glenelg and the beaches. Newly renovated in a modern and stylish way. Very clean and fresh.
Equipped with everything needed and the lovely owners had even put in a Christmas tree for us for the holidays and a Christmas hamper :)
We would love to stay here again
This lovely house was welcoming, sparkling clean and in a fabulous location right near the marina in Glenelg. The owner was extremely helpful and responsive to contact, and had provided extras to make the stay even better. I highly recommend the property and thank the owner for the presentation of such a lovely home for us to enjoy.

Delightful Marina Retreat
What a beautiful house to spend a leisurely week's holiday. Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this delightful home away from home. Everything you could possibly need was thoughtfully provided, the delicious chocolates and local wine on arrival, the great coffee machine and so many other items...
all very much appreciated. The house is spotlessly clean, spacious and beautifully renovated with all modern bathroom, kitchen and dinning. So many areas to relax, the various living rooms or the outside BBQ and garden areas.
It was a pleasure to stay here, thank you Sian and Steve for making us feel so welcome in your "Marina Retreat".

Relaxing getaway home
My fiancé and I stayed with a few others in this home for just over a week. We found it to be a great choice because of its location and recent renovations. It was only 10min from Adelaide Airport, 15min from the city and 15min from the south. The timber finishes gave it a warm feel while the high ceilings gave us freedom to relax. The backyard was perfect for our afternoon dinners and was an extra to this spacious home. Overall I feel this furnished home was definitely a value for money home and definitely will recommend to others.
A lot of separated little living spaces make the house very suited to a group which spend time in the house.
Well fitted out. The owners have put thought into ensuring that different groups' needs are met.
Only thing missing was internet. I guess that is becoming less important with smartphones.
