Great home away from home

Perfect location and a great view for what we needed. Nice and quiet. Gayleen was very friendly when she came out to see us. Nice and clean.

The host greeted us on arrival, and had frangipani decorating the apartment from the tree outside. Everything was clean tidy and well presented. It’s a beautiful peaceful retreat.

We had a pleasant stay overall. The place was tidy and clean on arrival, with a great shower and well-equipped cooking facilities. The space has a cosy, retro feel, though it is a little dated in places.There were a few quirks worth noting. The stove was a bit experimental to use as the dial markings have worn off, which made cooking slightly tricky. The TV remote is still broken (as mentioned in a review from over a year ago), and unfortunately the WiFi ran out during our stay.For families, it may not be the best fit for teenagers as there isn’t much space to kick a ball around, and it’s not particularly walkable to the beach—though it’s only about a 5-minute drive to the bay. The views are of the estuary rather than the harbour, which is worth clarifying in the listing.It would also be helpful for future guests to know that this is the downstairs flat with the owner living upstairs, as this wasn’t clear in the listing. The driveway is a bit tight and can be a little tedious to navigate.That said, it’s a comfortable spot for a short stay if you’re after somewhere quiet and don’t mind a few minor inconveniences.
