In a perfect location for event s at Sleeman. Took us about 15-20 minutes. Very clean. Had everything we needed for a comfortable 5 night stay. The bathroom is very compact which is something to keep in mind. Kids loved the pool table. Check in was easy and hosts were very helpful with tips on tides and places to visit.

Excellent seaside holiday

My son and i stayed at this property, it had everything we needed plus more! Very comfortable, we were concerned with no aircon in the main living space but the big fan did a great job and an aircon wasnt needed :)

Three friends interstate get together

Enjoyed our stay in this little cottage. It was a nice place to come home to at the end of each day of outdoor activities in the beautiful greater Brisbane area. Great location with many beautiful walks close by and beautiful scenery. The host was easy to communicate with and check in was easy. Comfortable beds. Thank you

Just what we were looking for

From arrival to departure everything was made easy. Location was perfect for what we needed, house was clean, comfortable and affordable. Our host Valerie was very accommodating and no request seemed to be a problem. It's definitely not your five star accommodation but the property is clean, in a quiet neighbourhood and the train station is within walking distance. With the water just across the road having kayaks and bikes supplied that can be ridden for miles along the waterfront were a definate bonus. Will definitely stay again.

Pretty good

Everything went well for us. Never got a chance to use the available kayaks, but having a launch across the street is great. As a birder, the park across the street was also great. A bit odd not having a light in the bathroom with the shower,but we managed.

The property was in a nice and safe area, property was as described and the hosts were available to assist should we had needed any advice or assistance.There was more than enough bits and pieces in the kitchen cupboards to help us as we cooked a few meals during the stay. Billiards table was fun and the telly had plenty of channels to offer when it wasn’t throwing a hissy fit and refusing to load up. The main seating in the big room was possibly past its best but the dining table and chairs were sturdy.Bed was comfortable and plenty of storage offered. The air con worked well.All in all a great stay, thanks to the hosts for offering up such a decent property.

Loved Lota

Check in was easy, our first night was comfortable. Next morning however, we woke to some kind of bugs taking over the second bathroom. We sprayed the area, cleaned, they continued to invade. The owner was made aware, we were told to spray, that these things happen in Australia. Second bathroom became unusable for the remainder of the week. The owner lives on site, so we thought they might come deal with the pest situation, they did not. We left the property one day early. Lota is a charming town, absolutely worth visiting!

Family-friendly, quiet, and comfortable

My family and I (family of four) had a great month-long stay in this property. The location is great, with plenty of nearby playgrounds for kids (including one just across the road). The house was clean and had plenty of towels, sheets, and kitchenware (though there was not a microwave during our stay, so we borrowed one from family). It is small but has plenty of room for four people (including a full bathroom with shower, sink, and toilet as well and a half bath with toilet and sink). The owner was very easy to communicate with and even gave us an extra night free when our travel plans changed. The neighborhood is quiet and great for walks along the Esplanade or the mangrove walk around Lota Creek. Excellent if you are a bird watcher or like to canoe! It was also wonderful to be walking distance to the train for easy access to the city.

Handy to Chandler Swimming Complex

The property is a quaint cottage but it has everything you need and more. A pool table, bikes & kayaks. Valerie the host is so lovely and flexible. We didn't get to use all of the activities as we were out most of the days but it is lovely to come home and be able to cook. The little touches like extra toilet paper, washing powder, glad wrap, coffee, sugar and much more. Thank you Valerie for the lovely stay and the late check out.

Nice and relaxing

We liked the location and it was fantastic to have access to boats and bicycles! The property is nice and clean, with all the basic supplies. Yes, it would have been nice to have a dishwasher, as we stayed for a full week, but we managed :) Many thanks to the hosts!

Great little cottage to use as a home base!

Hosts were fantastic on arrival, giving a tour of the cottage and outlining local points of interest. Summer is warm and the cottage is basic but does have a great fan, a/c and a breeze. Also ensure that bug spray is used for sand flies. A wonderful place to stay.

Home away from home

Love this little home. Very comfortable and clean. The only thing missing is an extra mirror and covered car parking. Would definitely come back a third time

Quiet with all the necessities

Perfect for kayaking just over the road, or a short drive to the Manly yacht club where there is a ramp.
