Beautiful home with great views but...

The homewares were all of an extremely poor quality - some were dirty and some were broken and things were just not as expected for $1000 per night. We ate in on the first night. the home accommodates up to 16 ( we were 7) and yet only had one small salad/serving bowl and two dirty cheap plastic mixing bowls. Nothing could be used until it had been washed. All the knives were blunt and the 3 corkscrews all broken and rusted - we could not open the special bottle of wine we had brought with us. There was an Aldi coffee machine with instructions but no coffee pods - nearest Aldi an hours round trip away. There were no rubbish bags and only one dishwasher tablet. The standard of things like hand wash etc were poor. It was a wet weekend and there were no door mats inside the doors and nowhere to leave shoes outside so the floor quickly became dirty. There was nothing left to make cooking easier except filthy used can of oil spray and a tiny amount of salt and pepper. I own a short term rental property and I would never leave my property in this state. All these things are easy fixes.

The location and house was terrific.

Loved that its right next to beach, close to town and very spacious to accommodate all of our family. Everyone, especially the kids had a ball. Always something to do.

Didn't like that there were almost no pantry staples . Only 2 tea towels which we had an accident with one because of no pot holders for the oven. Also toaster hardly worked.

The view was good

The cleanliness was below average. dirty cutlery/plates, couches had stains, no bin bags, not kitchen cloths, 2 tea towels....very budget for an almost $1000 a night accom
