Stroll down the road and enjoy a sundowner at the Straddie Pub, or a coffee and some lunch at one of the cafes.

Ideal and relaxing family stay

Second time that myself, daughter and family have stayed at this property. It has met all our needs. It is private with plenty of wild life and still within walking distance of the beach. The property is fenced so we are able to take our small family dog.

Good house and location

The house was a good space and easy for a family. Loved having kangaroos right out our back door. Would definitely stay here again. Only negatives was no doona covers on doona on the double beds and doonas very stained/old looking and shower had green mould. Also having to take own washing up liquid/hand soap and asked to take own toilet paper. Overall though for the price a good place to stay.

Fantastic for the price

Could do with a deeper clean, rather than just surface level. I had to do some cleaning on arrival before my friends arrived. It was challenging to get hold of people over Christmas and with limited signal, but they did send a cleaning manager around on Christmas Eve to respond to my concerns, which was very welcome.

Everything I needed was there - it is presented beautifully, quite, private but close to everything you need. Absolutely loved it :)

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our stay in Melaleuca 3. The location is central to Point Lookout, and you can enjoy the peace, quiet, and wildlife.

Relaxing

The property was private off the street. Quiet but you could listen to the sea at night and view plenty of wild life. The house was more than adequate and well positioned with quality furniture and fittings.

Idyllic Location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Found Melaleuca 3 when searching for a pet friendly option. Booked for an absolutely wonderful week. A beautiful, peaceful setting, with many different bird calls and bird watching opportunities all day, with kangaroos also visiting the yard. Easy walk to Home Beach for a dog friendly off leash adventure. We brought our own enclosure to safely fence off the side yard. I had no complaints about the accommodation and would definitely book again, but some things to consider include: the shower/bath access may not be suitable for older visitors or those with disabilities; no internet included, and Optus coverage is generally SOS to 1 bar of 3G; washer, but no dryer.

Great location and setting with some problems

Easy walks to bushland and beaches. Lots of wildlife around like roos in the backyard. Easy parking under cover. But there is next to no mobile phone signal and no wifi internet. The TV reception is also terrible on a very small screen. I think guests should be made aware of these restrictions. Coffee pods were wrong size for machine. Bathroom plug in the sink got stuck. The portable heater the only heating there didn't work easily as it seemed to need to be programmed via the panel on it but it had no instructions. The bedding had some ugly spots on it.
