Choose apartment due to location to Wineglass Bay, excellent. Comfortable but showing age in kitchen and bathroom.

Good value
Great location. Spacious. Nice kitchen. Had water jug for drinking which they asked that you boil water and keep it full. We couldn't get the washer to spin dry. There was no dryer, but had a clothes line in back. Place could have been a little cleaner.

Good for short stays
We stayed only one night. Whilst this had a good location close to water the main entry door was hard to open and close. We had requested 2 x queen beds at time of booking and a followup email however there were no sheets or pillowcases on the 2nd queen bed. Lucky for plenty of blankets. Good heating. Wi-Fi was new and wouldn't initially connect but came through in the end. Good for short stays.

Clean, Plain and Expensive
The place was very clean and the beds comfortable. However, the price for prime time, was high considering it is a tired, basic place that has not been updated, especially after coming from a 4 star hotel on water front Hobart, that was way cheaper.. Only minimal amenities were provided, such as washing powder, 1 chux and sink detergent, 1 small square of soap, 1 towel per guest and no complimentary shampoo or lotions. There were lists everywhere regarding what could and couldn't be done in the house! I mean I have seen fewer rules in a school classroom! I understand the need for being water efficient with tanks being the only water source and happily respected that. I am a respectful person and indeed ensured that place was left even cleaner than when I arrived.I cleaned the stove and oven even though we really didn't use that. Computer access in the house good when we connected. The rental staff managing the property were great and very helpful. Over all a pleasant if super expensive stay as the house was convenient to the Freycinet Park exploration.

Hi Pauline, Thank you so much for your review, we do hope you had a wonderful time. Unfortunately this region is more expensive to stay in, as there is limited accommodation for the amount of tourist visiting. This property is the absolute cheapest in our portfolio and there is not much at all this price in the whole of Coles Bay, it is also peak season. It is a "self contained" holiday house. Although we do not supply shampoo etc, we do supply lot's of extra's such as al foil, salt & pepper, cooking & olive oil, tea, coffee sugar & all dish washing items. Unfortunately we do need some house rules & guidelines in place & this is no offence to guests staying that are respectful (sorry a bit confused about you saying they were everywhere?). The guidelines are on one A4 sign that sits on the bench & the one in the back of the compendium. Some are in place for the safety of guests, things guests may need to know to make their stay more enjoyable, as well as advising of possible extra cleaning charges if the house is left in an unreasonable condition. I wish we did not have to have this, but now that we do, we do have guests most of the time be respectful. You would not believe what our cleaning team walk into sometimes when guests have left every item used in the kitchen and we are cleaned caked on food and spending an extra hour doing someone's dishes. I wish we didn't need to advise what is acceptable and what isn't, but it is the nature of this industry. We certainly don't ask guests to clean the facilities in the house, but just to leave it reasonable. Our cleaning team have very high standards. We do hope that you had a wonderful time here and hope to see you back again.

Quiet area
It's a quiet area to stay at Coles Bay, not very far from Wineglass Bay.
