lovely great location

Great location, lovely little old fashion charmed house, beds were amazingly comfortable, deck and backyard was lovely, our only gripe was we had to clean up a lot of others left over mess, it had been left a bit untidy cleanliness wise, but other than that, we had a lovely stay, and would return again to wonderful Encounter Bay-Victor Harbor :)

Long weekend getaway

We loved this home for its fireplace and carpet. We have rated it 5/5 for each category with the exception of accuracy from the online advertisement. It was better than the images projected!!! It was comfortable and warm, the location was perfect for esplanade walks and bike rides and a short walk to delish dinners.

Coastal holiday

This place, although consisting of an old dwelling is functional and has everything you may need for your upcoming holidays. Great location (close to the shore) and a lovely back deck with a relaxing view. The interior is somewhat old and the carpet would benefit from removal or replacement and so would the stovetop however these are not deal breakers. The landlords are kind and the check-in check-out process painless. The cost is also affordable for a family of four wishing to spend some time in this beautiful part of SA. I would come back hopefully at a time with kinder weather...

Clean and otherwise as advertised.

We booked for June long weekend the day before staying and the LJ Booker property manager Nana was fantastic. House was exactly as advertised and probably one of the cleanest stayz we've visited. Take your own air fryer and don't worry about no oven.

Cozy cottage - great location.

We chose this property as it was close to where our son & his family were staying - our grandchildren loved visiting so they could play in the lovely garden. Everything we really needed was supplied - maybe a queen size bed would have been nice, but hey the double bed was fine. It was a very pleasant relaxing week. Thank you 😊
