Pretty good overall- cleaning could be improved- frypans were in cupboard and dirty and clothes in cupboards and drawers and down side of bed.

This was perfect short stay for our family & dogs. Large enough for 8 of us. Quiet street within short drive to shops & beaches. Outdoor deck, BBQ, pool table & yard was well used by all of us. Thank you

Great property, kids loved it. Only negative is not adequate heating/cooling, bedrooms had none and it was freezing, and couldn’t use portable heaters due to small children (they get very hot to touch).
