Good location
BBQ not clean. Two bathrooms does not mean one toilet and one bathroom, not enough for eight people. Tidy but not clean.

holiday
The property was in a good location. However the house was poorly maintained, lamps didn't work, sofas had a strong smell and were grubby. Previous tenants had left toys lying around and general cleanliness was poor. Also found broken glass when we were cleaning up.
Old property but everything you need is provided (just bring egg-cups if you're partial to a boiled egg!). Kitchen was definitely retro but functional. Heaps of games available, a cosy little TV room, outdoor area is lovely in the evening with possums for company, beds were comfortable.
Only a few steps to the beautiful beach at the end of the road so location is great.
BBQ looked a bit grime but we used trays so all good.
We were five adults staying and the lack of a second bathroom/ensuite surprisingly wasn't an issue, shows how pampered we are at home :-)
Overall, a great little house due to the location and we'd definitely go back.
Lucky enough to get this home in the April school holidays. Located on a quiet street less than a minute walk from Abbey Beach, the house is an older style but has everything you need for a family holiday. And pet friendly too! Will be back for sure
I love this house!
It’s not new and it doesn’t need to be because it’s comfortable and welcoming.
Everything you need is in the house and shops and conveniences are just around the corner.
The location is perfect and I can’t wait to visit again.
Great location. Everything available. Bunk beds a bit too dusty to sleep and very thin mattress on bunks, but otherwise other beds comfortable and house very functional.
Family and pet friendly in a perfect beachside location

I have been running my properties as holiday houses for over 10 years. I also own and operate a ski lodge in Japan.
Why they chose this property
This property is a classic original 1970s retro style beach house which is well maintained, neat and clean. Being so close to the beach is an added advantage and its exceptionally well located down south allowing easy access to everything in the area. This property is attractively priced for the larger groups and families, but still very affordable for the smaller groups or couples.
What makes this property unique
The location and pricing in comparison to others on the market. The property contains all the basics you will need for a comfortable stay. From fully equipped kitchen, games, tv and videos to BBQ and outdoor entertaining. This is your home away from home.
