The space was good

The apartment needed a good clean. There was grime on the cupboards, and dust/dirt on the window shelves, rubbish under the beds and sofa. The wifi was useless, didn’t work, no cable TV. The shower head was broken and l noticed this was in a review in December and still not fixed. A dirty place and would not recommend for the money.

Needs notice to advise necessary to turn on hot water-cold shower!! And usual to have fresh tea bags etc available.

The stairs outside were a problem for us as quite steep when handling luggage and the stairs inside were somewhat creaky so couldn’t quietly use them without disturbing the other occupant. The shower head needs replacing as it kept falling down during use. The apartment whilst clean and nicely arranged is showing signs of needing some attention

Location was advertised as beach front, view is supermarket & carwash

The house was very comfortable and well furnished. Some complementary treats and wine were a great touch. The owners were very kind and responsive.

The house was very noisy, especially at night.

location and great balcony

bed not that comfortable

Appalling False Advertising and Disgraceful Condition of So Called Luxury Accommodation Have just endured as passionate travellers the most disgusting “luxury” accommodation stay in over 50 years of travelling! We thought we’d support the ailing local tourism industry in Portland following the covid shutdown. For $400 per night discounted to $361 this is what we endured and all comments are supported by photos. Entry via an uneven dirt driveway into a building work site, then up very high stairs to access apartment. Couldn’t work the tiny TV, set up with three devices and three controllers. Called owner, who we found is based in Melbourne, who initially wasn’t really concerned, but said she’d have someone come to fix it. The owner’s son called, from Melbourne, and offered to talk through a multiple step set up. Given we paid $361 we said we were not interested in becoming TV technicians and that she needed to get someone to fix it as promised. A very helpful technician arrived and got the TV working, after some work and agreed this was something we would never have worked out. Lots of signs telling us not what to do but nothing telling us how to do. On our second call the owner said no one had ever complained before and that she had wonderful reviews. So now after 1 hour of waiting this is what we discovered in our luxury accommodation. Cobwebs across top of bedside lamp and mirror on balcony. All glass, windows, tabletop and shower screen were filthy, oily and sticky. Dirty and damaged sink, damaged surfaces on kitchen cupboards. Dirty dishwasher. When using the handbasin in the bathroom the water flowed out of the drain in the centre of the bathroom, flooding the floor. Our luxury package included a cake of basic house soap, no shampoo, conditioner and the usual items provided at most accommodations.

Location...excellent. Comfortable and warm. Little touches like a nice bottle of wine and chocolates.

Comfy lounge

Not all the lights were working, Double bed should be a queen,

Everything was fabulous!

Nothing! It was all 10/10!
