This place was very comfortable and practical. The extra things supplied like salt/pepper, oil/vinegar, tea/coffee/sugar meant we didn’t have to buy and then waste our own.
The location is unbeatable. We can’t wait to go back.

We absolutely loved our stay here. The property was in perfect condition and with everything we needed, including really great small touches (raglan roast coffee, nice bed linen etc). It’s right over the water, couldn’t get closer to the surf, and everything was super easy. Thanks so much! Would stay here again without hesitation
5.0
You could not be closer to the sea and the gate at the bottom of the property, that opens onto the sea path is totally 'magic garden'.
The flat is is very well designed and makes the absolute most of a relatively small space through clever design. Comfortable and with a bachy vibe but at the same time everything is fresh and modern.
The listing's pictures are totally accurate and lying in the spa listening to the surf is just the icing on the cake.
Highly recommended.

Property was as stated and very clean and comfortable.
We stayed in winter so although we love the beach it was noisy due to the surf being so rough even with earplugs at night.

Mesmerising View!
A very clean and well-renovated smallish space. The spa was sparkling clean and a great way to relax and soak up the everchanging views of the ocean. We enjoyed having access to whale bay at the bottom of the property. Attention to detail with many things being very high quality (lovely linen ect) We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

站在院子里看出去的景观与宣传照倒是完全相符,但还是对摄影师的功力赞叹不已,居然用广角镜把这个完全是地下室的房间(楼上可能是房主家居住的)拍到如此没有一丝压抑感!房间窄小,幸好我们才入住了3个人,基本无法容纳正常体型的5个人。设施老旧,淋浴房还要借光漱洗台上方的灯,卫生间最窄处还要侧身行走,连洗衣机都不配备,建议房主把早已生锈的炉灶换一下,希望下一位客人能比我们幸运。这个地下室unit与广告含糊不清的描述感觉是大相径庭的,相对于疫情下的这个价位真的不值,肯定不推荐使用。顺便提一下,回家后才发现腿部还有一片虫咬的痕迹。

This bach has an absolutely stunning view of Whale Bay, and the spa pool and outdoor area was wonderful. Unfortunately the accommodation itself just does not stack up to the not inconsiderable price. It was way too small to accommodate four adults comfortably, cooking facilities were woefully inadequate and there were several issues with pests, broken items in the place. Sadly we felt the property was overpriced for the level of comfort and the advertisement does not honestly/adequately describe the accommodation. The view makes up for a lot, but it isn't everything!

Amazing thank you. Location extraordinary and we loved the spa and the privacy . The only note was very minor, the kitchen sink plug didn’t work that well and the water kept draining away before we could finish the dishes. Thank you very much for a beautiful restful stay

Loved the location and views. Property was tired though and disappointed with quality. Very dated - some simple improvements needed - bedside table and light in main room, tap in bathroom needs fixing, cooking facility poor, and we had an ant infestation. These things did detract but we had a great time on balance as location was stunning. Small touches like some milk in fridge on arrival etc would help along with info on Raglan etc. Rgds Al and Vicky
