The house was immaculate and the beds were set up correctly (I’d asked for some single beds). The location was excellent, just a short walk to a safe and very quiet beach. It was like being at a resort!

The house and location was a perfect weeks holiday for 2 families to enjoy during the October school holidays. The house was perfectly set up to accommodate everyone. We enjoyed the beautiful beaches, fishing, snorkeling and sand dunes of the surrounding area, and will definitely be back again!

Sea Essence on Kingsley had everything we needed and quite a few things we didn’t know we needed but appreciated! A perfect location with sea views a good number of bedrooms that accommodated the whole family for our Christmas-in-January holiday. The top range appliances in the expansive kitchen (and the large BBQ) made feeding everyone a breeze. The heated pool has glimpses of the sea - with people moving from one to the other throughout the day. All-in-all a fantastic holiday - we look forward to visiting again.

We're so happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay and appreciated the modern style, fully equipped amenities, and the convenience of the heated pool. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the cleanliness. As this property is a brand new holiday rental, we take great pride in maintaining high standards, and our dedicated cleaning team works hard to ensure the home is spotless for each guest. We are unsure about the issues you mentioned with the pillows, sheets, and carpets, as this isn't typical, but we truly wish you had reported these concerns during your stay so we could have addressed them promptly.

Great location and amazing home with stunning views

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This three storey home was well designed to cater for our multi generational family holiday. Fantastic views, plenty of space and a shower/toilet on each level. The pool and pool area were well used with plenty of space again to accommodate everyone. Only one thing to be aware of if you have elderly family members staying with you is there are three flights of stairs to the bedrooms which are quiet steep.
