Thank you for your lovely review. We're so pleased to hear you enjoyed the house and the location! Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime.
The location of the house is great just a few minutes walk from the dog friendly Umina beach and short drive to Pearl beach and Patonga. The house itself is as described and fit us (4 adults, 2 kids and a dog) comfortably. The beds were quite uncomfortable (and one of them unstable) though and the check-in process with the property manager quite cumbersome.

Thanks again for staying with us — we hope to welcome you back to the area soon.
The shack is great. What was missing was real coffee making facilities like a plunger or pods. There were no steak knives even though there is a bbq. The ceiling fans did not operate and need their remote batteries changed.
