Great Stay!
Property was clean. Central to shops , beaches etc. The property has a putting green & badminton nets, maybe have a couple of putters on hand with golf ball & badminton set that could be left at the property. Says pool is heated, but was so cold.

The apartment and complex are well appointed. As well as golf, there are restaurants, a pool and plenty of nature walks. Regional activities aplenty are just a short drive away. Highly recommended.

I booked last minute and wasn’t disappointed. Great price point for a comfortable stay. Cut was just me, but it would’ve been fine for a small family, with the futon lounge also available.

Location was good and easy to find the apartment on the first floor with lovely balcony. The shower was tricky to get going and there was no coffee as stated in the communication. Apartment is spacious but a little dated. Overall we enjoyed our stay and really love the location of the complex.

Very easy to access the apartment with PIN code provided. Lovely roomy apartment which was perfect for our golfing holiday. The heated pool was wonderful after a round of golf and it was lovely to sit in the sun on the balcony above the putting green in the evening. Would highly recommend for a golfing holiday.

The apartment was very large and comfortable with a really nice outlook across the practice green. It was equipped with everything you need. We were told there would be no milk but it could do with a small tetra pack of long life milk, or two.

The apartment was very clean and well presented
We unfortunately did not get much sleep as the curtains in bedroom did very little to blockout the sun at all times during the day. They didn't close together and there were gaps on both sides of the window. This meant that we had to put our portacot in the bathroom so our 14month old baby could get some sleep.

Dirty and dangerous... host is rude and aggressive
-Main bedroom has a pungent smell from hot water service in the wardrobe -Fold out couch has exposed springs -Bedding is thread bare and stained -Dusty and all surfaces needing a clean -Electrical power points are damaged or faulty (of great concern, especially with young children) -Hair all over the bathroom -Dirty dishes in the cupboard -Foxtel not working -No digital piano as stated in the listing Host was rude, defensive and aggressive! This property is in a great location for the hot springs and surrounding areas. It is shame that the owners are unwilling to accept constructive feedback to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable stay

Response from VrboOwner on 26 Aug 2022
All constructive, genuine and reasonable feedback are appreciated! From the comments below, we can see guests were very unhappy with their stay. They booked and have lived in the apartment for 2 nights. They have two days to communicate about their concerns. But they didn’t mention anything during their stay. After they left, James sent me a message ( of some complaints) and requested a refund of one night plus cleaning fee. Most of the complaints are made untrue and some even without common senses. Complaint1. Use Glen 20 purposely to cover funky smell. Glen 20 is provided for courtesy in light of Covid 19 situations. Complaint 2 Hairs through out in the bathroom. Dusts on surfaces as if haven’t been cleaned recently, etc. even the worst cleaners would wipe all surfaces and vacuum the floor, unless they are blind. If my cleaner did the job, I would almost believe what he commented. Fortunately my partner and I did together that day. I even had a witness as my handyman was also there that day. The dusts could accumulate overnight though as I didn’t have booking that night. Complaint 3. Dirty dishes in the cupboard. Unless I’m blind, I cannot agree with this comment. Complaint 4. Electrical PowerPoint is faulty which is also not true . I provide an individually switched PowerPoint for guests’ convenience. I even provide a child proof PowerPoint in the bedroom. Complaint 5 Foxtel and digital piano. I don’t believe I have advertised for the above. However I was aware of Foxtel in the apartment as previous guests told me about it. I have never used it myself so cannot give any advise about. After I gave explanations to all James’ concerns and refused his refund request, he commented I was rude, defensive and aggressive. This apartment is also listed on other websites, you are most welcome to read all reviews. I believe my price is reasonable because I know I am only human. I can’t be perfect. But l do try my best to improve constantly. I do appreciate all constructive feedbacks. You want discounts, you communicate with me. But I do not accept threats!

Great apartment.
Overall a great apartment in an excellent location. The only feedback I have is to strongly suggest to update the bed linen and maybe buy white sheets so you can bleach them as the fitted sheet on the bed had stains on it which is very unsavoury on any accommodation bedding let alone on a bed in an apartment in a 5 star resort.

Great location, so quiet and relaxing! Apartment was clean, modern and well equipped. Things which could improve: there are plantation shutters and a/c in the living area but not in the bedroom. Shutters and fan needed there. Found bedroom far too warm (stayed end Feb and weather was warm but not hot). Sofa bed not great quality. Balcony could be cleaner (interior spotless). Great vfm, location and pool. Just need a cooler bedroom!
