Great location

Our 2nd time at this home, as we love the location, the bushy, shady block and quiet neighbourhood. A very comfortable home away from home. We will be back.

Great place

The property and property management couldn’t be faulted.. some minor issues with water but not unexpected given the amount of rain nsw has had. The only point I’d mention is anyone taking their dog to hawks nest be wary of the dingos. Even though some beaches are off leash I’d recommend you keep your dog on leash. Dingos were everywhere! Myself and my golden retriever were stalked on the beach . It was terrifying. We also had a run in with one roaming the streets near the caravan park. It stopped in front of my husband and growled. They are persistent and intelligent. Locals told me to carry a stick! Not inducive to a relaxing beach holiday with your pet!

Lovely shady home close to beaches

We loved this house and will stay again. Plenty of room and modern throughout. Great shady block with established trees made the house comfortable in late summer. 5 minute walk to beautiful Jimmy's beach. Plenty of parking.

Big house in great location but too many bugs

The house is big and it is very close to the beach. Unfortunately we didn’t enjoy much because the house was full of bugs, ants and some spiders. We needed to clean constantly and when we were chilling in the living room the ants where dropping from the ceiling. Unfortunately same experience in the bedrooms. Some of the insect screens are broken and this didn’t help with the insects. It was a pity to struggle all the week with this and I believe the house should be checked before to be rent! If it wasn’t for this reason the house could be perfect!

Great house for a group of 8 friends. Open plan and well equipped with ample lounges, dining area seating, Outdoor areas, beds and heating. A short walk to the shops and the beach Internet signal was very weak and the house doesn’t have wifi so don’t bring your work
