Reviewer Comments:
We stayed at the property from the 14th May to 17th. I found the process of booking very difficult. I had a voucher from a previous unused stay and this seemed to cause so many issues to get the booking secured, there were several emails back and forth and untold answered phone calls.Upon arrival we found cockroaches on the floor, debris on the stove top that had fallen from the ceiling, mould in the bathroom upstairs,dirty window sills it generally looked like the house had not be cleaned in preparation of our arrival.The house states it sleeps up to 9 people yet there are not enough seating at the dining table to fit 9.There was also a lack of the following to accommodate 9 people;Wine glassesPillow casesThere were no serving utensils, serving bowls, salad bowls, bread knife which I feel are basics for a house.One of the toilets was broken.There were burnt edges on the place mats. No light bulb in the stairwell, which was quite dangerously dark.There has been a few updates in the house such as bathrooms and Kitchen but I found the house to be quite dark and dated.I would not recommend this property to anyone
Arrived to clean property. Sofas and all beds comfortable. Place was however terribly lacking . There was nowhere to hang your towel. The main downstairs bedroom lacked furniture for such a big space. It needs a chair , table or dressing table. We couldn’t find wine glasses and when we did were surprised by the mosh mash of poor quality glasses. Also not enough for our party of 8. . Sheets and towels absent and required us to phone office. Barbecue nearly blew up in our faces and we had to replace gas which required phoning office and then going out to purchase some gas. Very unsafe. Back garden had tree stumps and broken branches all over . Front furniture in outside area was filthy and cigarette butts surrounded it. Bins were full to brim so we couldn’t fit our rubbish in and had to drag them up steep driveway. Outrageous price for a property that didn’t even supply a set of decent wine glasses. Very disappointed.

Reviewer Comments:
Property was dated but covered the needs of a golf group who didn’t spend much time there. Overall some complimentary soap and shampoo would have been nice and our linen didn’t get delivered to plan. There are possums in the roof of this property which is a bit spooky at first but then you get used to your furry flat mates.

Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, location
All of us were not happy and left the next day although we had booked for more nights. Not Happy.
The property and furniture are tired and not as clean as expected. We ended up sweeping the yards & redoing dishes as well as killing insects most of the night. The beds were uncomfortable very old.

Reviewer Comments:
The location was perfect, near box beach and wreck beach. However, we were severely bitten by bed bugs in the master bedroom & had to pay for pest control because they followed us home. Host has refused to compensate us for pest control & are not taking the issue seriously. Please note bites take a couple days to appear so you may not notice till after your stay. BE WARNED
