Tropical oasis!

Beautifully styled and maintained property, with carefully considered facilities - we had everything we needed and didn't want to leave! Central Rye location, a short drive to the beach, supermarket and cafes, as well as local vineyards. Property manager was very easy to deal with and the late check-option was the icing on the cake.

A little piece of paradise!

We loved our stay at Como Palm Retreat, especially the established gardens around the house which made you feel very secluded! The pool was great and very child friendly with a large shallow end. The house was spotless and also very comfortable for a home away from home. Will definitely be back!

You don't need to leave!

The house is sparkling clean and the property has so much to do there you don't need to leave! The outdoor area is great, we thoroughly enjoyed lounging by the pool all weekend.Verve even allowed us a late check out on the Sunday which meant we got even more time at the house which we used happily. Thanks again for a great stay!
