Great stay

The house was very comfortable and clean on arrival. well positioned in a quiet street but close to town and beaches, the only thing that could make the stay more comfortable would be a couple of sun lounges around or near the pool.

Relaxing, well-appointed

House: older style but neat, clean, good size. Enclosed backyard. Position: great. Short walk to small supermarket, cafe, pharmacy, bottle-o. 15min to beach/playground. Right on the bus route so no car needed. Amenities: standard bedding & towels, no beach towels (surprisingly). Pool has shallow areas for kids. Plenty of kitchen utensils/ crockery/glassware. Lots of fans, good ventilation, didn't try the aircon. Handy having a washing machine. We would definitely stay again!

Great family holiday home!

A great affordable family home. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare and cook a great Christmas lunch/dinner. There was even a Christmas tree and some decorations. (much better than the miniature one I had packed in my suitcase) Plenty of room for a family of seven. The only thing we were missing were some beach towels, or some extra towels for the pool. Thanks for having us. We had a great Christmas! :)

6/10 Okay

Nice size home with poo.

Nice home with a small pool. Only issue is that it does not have air conditioning in the main living area. The home became very hot during the day. also, At the time of our stay the air conditioner did not work in one of the rooms at the back of the house (with double bed).
