Well equiped family house
Great family and pet friendly setup. Loved the upstairs decking area where we were able to enjoy a bbq and meal outdoors. Kitchen is well setup too. Plenty of sleeping beds and space.
The upstairs bathroom could do with an update renovation. Overall really enjoyed our stay at the house.

Great getaway for all the family, pets included.
We had a terrific catch up weekend for our family. Fantastic big deck with BBQ and huge outdoor setting. Kitchen had everything you need, clean throughout, fans in bedrooms. Bunks for kids, backyard for dogs and space for parking. We loved our stay and would love to visit again.

Great Family Getaway
Great house, stayed with 6 adults, 1 teen and 3 children. The table tennis table certainly got some use. Fully stocked with everything you could need, in a lovely position within walking distance to beach. Would recommend.

Perfect for little families
We had a great time at this property, a few minor issues with cleanliness, fridge not cooling, and shower - but after communication with the property manager, all issues were resolved.
We stayed with 3 families, and it was perfect for adults and kids.

it certainly allowed us to relax and enjoy our own company. this property had everything we asked.
this house was clean and open for a large group to stay. the bedrooms were comfortable and spacious. the living area was ideal in it's layout to entertain a group of people and the rec room was a great area for us all to gather and have fun.
i would recommend this venue to all my friends and family, well worth the money.
