Garbage
home- no problem exactly what to expect for renovated house. arrived on Mon to find garbage bin reeking and full of maggots. not emptied till midday Wed .Location of home not suitable for elderly people, too far to walk for shopping etc. My fault for not ordering a waterfront spot.

Response from VrboOwner on 21 Mar 2024
Thank you for the feedback Keith. Unfortunately previous guests had not put the bin out for collection which is why it was left on the side of the road - our cleaner was trying to keep it far away from the house. The beach house is a flat 500 mtr walk to an IGA supermarket and the Pumistone Passage. Most guests find it a great location.

Relaxation zone
This beach house is conveniently located on a quiet street on Bribie Island. My personal favorite about this stay is sitting on the front deck early, watching the birds and butterflies in the trees. The main bed is comfortable, with many cosmetics, utensils, and games.

Stopping at Bongaree
My partner and I spent a week at this property at Bongaree and it was delightful. The property is comfortable, clean and has good outdoor spaces to spend time relaxing. The neighbourhood is quiet. We had a fog and the yard is well fenced with a great garden and lawn. Highly recommend this property with shops and coffee within walking distance.

Bribie beach cottage getaway
We had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful beach cottage and I must say, it was an absolute delight. The cottage is beautifully furnished and equipped with all the amenities one could need for a comfortable stay. The beds were incredibly comfortable and the deck was simply fantastic. What's more, the location was perfect - just a short stroll away from the water and local shops. Despite the weather not being the best, we thoroughly enjoyed our time indoors watching Netflix and cooking meals together in the well-stocked kitchen. All in all, it was a wonderful experience and I'm already looking forward to my next stay. Highly recommended!

What gorgeous, quirky little place! A bit of the old "Beach shack" vibe, but with some well done updates. Bathroom is fabulous; comfy bed and pillows. Good size TV with Telstra box. Well stocked kitchen. Deck out front is perfect for an afternoon coffee or beer. Air con and heating, lovely outdoor seating out the back to get the morning sun. Fully screened. And our two dogs loved it too! Highly recommended. Thanks Gaye.
