Great house in a great location

This house is perfect for a holiday. It is neat clean and tidy and in a fabulous location. It is also secure and has everything that you need. Its only a 5 minute walking distance from the house to town and a stones throw from the water. And the yard was very secure for my two dogs.

A great property in an excellent location. However the property is pretty tired and needs maintenance. Thread bare carpet, sagging mattress, loose screen door and window latches, curtain rod anchors failing etc.

Close to town.

Clean accommodation but could do with some upgrading. Glad I didn’t bring my dog as there was no area outside which sheltered from the rain. Probably ok in the summer. All in all we were happy with the accommodation and location of the property.

There are some bricks in the paving which needs attention as they present a trip hazard.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have been returning to this house for almost 30 years every Sept/Oct school holidays. We always feel like we’ve returned home. We love the location and the house has all the extras you might need in the kitchen. There’s even jigsaws and games for the kids and pencils etc. my children used to do jigsaws when we came to stay, now my grandchildren come and enjoy them! Kalbarri has so much to offer. The beaches, cafes, playgrounds, cycle paths, tourist sites , shops, bakeries and most of these things are in walking distance. If you haven’t come to Kalbarri- this is a perfect house!

Great accomodation

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The functionality, layout and supplies in this accomodation were perfect. My only complaints wete the shower curtain!!! The shower recess is reasonably small, the curtain is set back quite a way and it blows in onto your skin all of the time while showering (it needs weighting at the bottom or changing to a screen) and there was no measuring jug for cooking (very minor) The garden was fantastic for our dog,the beds and couches were super comfortable for us and the booking and key pick up were very easy.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Managment Company was very professional and flexible for check in, which was greatly appreciated. Extremely clean and well located. My gripe was the house was more like a stay with your grandparents as a child, not the Kalabari holiday feel. From the old furniture, linen, full carpets, every cupboard had a label which made you feel uneasy. That dinner room table made me feel it was there for show, not to eat off. Could be very well suited to some, but if you are after a place that makes you feel like you are on a "Kalbari get away", it doesn't give this vibe. Did bring back good memories of Nan tho. :)

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love staying at this house although I think the tree/garden bed out the back needs a tidy up, and maybe brick the backyard instead of having the dirt/blue metal rocks out there. We sit outside a lot and it is quite annoying to walk around and duck under the tree when the table is there. Another suggestion I could make is to have at least one decent sharp knife in the kitchen. Other than this the house is spot on, a split system in the lounge room would be very comfortable also. I look forward to my stay again in 2025.

Great Location and everything we needed

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: Neat and tidy house. You can see the river and coast from the front garden, and the pub is a short walk away (there is nothing too far away in Kalbarri). There were two blue tongued lizards living in the back garden and we came back to find a big roo munching on the grass in the front garden one afternoon. The only minor issue was that the architrave running along the face-brick wall in the laundry was not sealed, meaning that bits if debris were being blown onto the work surface, but such a minor thing and easy for the owner to fix
