The property was situated in a quite residential area it was clean and cozy and a beautiful view of the boat ramp and lake from the front side of property. Location was a short walk from the local shops. The local RSL was a great place to have a good meal and only a short distance away. Ideal for small or large families if you need to rent other side of the house… thanks Mal

Location was great. It was quiet and very clean. Host communicated very well. It would have been perfect except the queen bed was very firm and you can hear the other guess moving about in the other unit.

Wonderful Location!

The photos of the property don't do justice to how wonderful the actual location is. Both the days we spent there, the sunsets were absolutely divine and we were able to enjoy them while sitting on the front deck. Mal thought of everything,and checked in to make sure we had everything we needed. Very comfortable, and clean premises. An added bonus was the pelicans that live on the lake, opposite to the property. Would definitely visit again. Thanks Mal!

Relaxing and memorable experience

Mal's place is perfectly located at the heart of Swansea. Everything is accessible and convenient especially those must-see places at Swansea. Home is very cozy place to stay in. Best spot is staying at the living room over looking the water view! My husband and my friends really enjoyed our stay. Thank you so much Mal for a great accommodation experience and very warm welcome.
