Response from VrboOwner on 4 Sept 2024
Dear Harvey, thanks for your comments and the time you spent helping us to improve guest experiences.
We had a shower cabin in the main-ensuite. We changed it to a much more beautiful setting with bathtub. The appliance has a handshower as well. An extra shower cabin is in the second bathroom.
Our house is cleaned by professional cleaners. They have always done an exceptional job. However we are trying to find out what happened to eliminate any issues in the future.
Thank you for being our guest and all the best. Frank and Stella
About the host
Hosted by Frank and Stella Model
We're a German couple and the proud builder and house owner of a Masterpiece in design and engineering.
When going on a 4 month trip to Europe we prefer to let the house to a nice well-educated, trustworthy and reliable family, expats or executives, able to value our property and treat it as their own instead of leaving the house unoccupied.
Profit is not priority but caring for our home.
We offer rate reductions of up to 30% for guests who rent our house for at least 8 weeks. See details in Property Description.

What makes this property unique
The house has a unique design.
When stepping in our home you will be overwhelmed by a feeling of serenity and wellbeing.
The modern design of the high ceilings with a timber finish completed with a huge glass front provide you an exceptional good room climate you might have never experienced before.
Guests will wake up in the morning with the first rays of sunlight flooding the bed room, the terrace and the whole house and instead of traffic noise you will enjoy birdsongs every morning.
At night, when sipping your glass of wine, you will see the moon rising and creating a shining silver lining on the surface of the water…. and when you go to bed you’ll see the stars through the skylight windows of the bed room.
Please remember: this sanctuary experience near to nature is only 25 min drive from Melbourne’s cosmopolitan CBD.
You will leave with one regret: Stepping out of the Sanctuary.
