Viste is a lovely property and a great place to stay. There are great lake views from the spacious deck, lots of bedrooms and bathrooms, a spa for relaxing and a log fire for chilling evenings. Kayaks and a small boat are available for use. The shops are close by. The host was available and helpful when we had a question. Great well equipped kitchen too. Hard to fault this place!
What an amazing area and a great place to stay. Our family loved the location and the facilities offered. We all had a wonderful time. The house is absolutely lovely and even though it would be absolutely wonderful and stunning with a freshen up it is a great place to stay
This is our second stay at Vista Del Aqua at Smiths Lake. The house is perfect for large families, with plenty of air conditioned bedrooms and enough bathrooms. We used the boat this time, and the teenagers took advantage of the games.
The pix matched the reality of the property overall. However, the carpet is a real con because it made the property feel stale and smelly as it is very worn.
Beautiful view, good kitchen, comfortable bedrooms.
We enjoyed our stay.
We stayed at Vista Del Aqua in November 2023. Perfect for the three generations of our family doing our annual pre Christmas get together, with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. The house is very well appointed with everything you need in the kitchen. It was great sitting on the deck with the outlook over the lake - very peaceful.
We had a terrific week at Viste del Aqua. This house is a perfect getaway for families with young children, we have two under 2. Sweeping views of the lake. Enough space for everyone to spread out and also for some that needed a quiet place to work. Beds were very comfortable. A large well stocked kitchen. Can highly recommend to other multigenerational families looking for a holiday together. Thanks Kate.
House was lovely, very well equipped and heaps of room for a big group to spread out. There were a few maintenance issues, spa needed a good clean, 2 of the toilets had issue with flushing and boat motor doesn’t work . But the older boys were able to row it to have a fish.
Would definitely book again though as the configuration and equipment were great. Could sit on the back verandah and enjoy the view all day!
This was a perfect property for our group of eleven adults. Great open plan internal area with split level living. Lots of huge lounges and seating throughout multiple levels. Big kitchen preparation area and a huge dining table which caters for everyone. Comfortable and quiet ducted air conditioning and a well maintained and very efficient log heater, the latter of which we used. Bedrooms spacious, clean and well presented. Impeccably clean. Great views from a private deck off the main living area. Didn’t use the boat or kayak but perfect and safe spot to do if you want to. Parking could be a bit tight for two cars in the garage and the short driveway is a bit steep and care is needed if you’re walking it. However , a couple of extra spaces out the front and a vacant block of land directly opposite the property ensured ample parking. Check out the Pacific Palms Bowlo for excellent value food/service and the courtesy bus option. All in all, a really good property at an affordable price with plenty of living options within.

Room to Relax, Play and be Together
The property was as listed with ample room for the whole family (8) to relax with 3 seperate lounge areas. Aesthetically the house is a little tired and the carpet well over due for replacement with an unpleasant dank musty smell in the lower staircase. Lots of thought gone into activities (games, books, audio speakers, snooker, spa, fishing gear and kayaks). In such a pristine natural setting it was sad single use plastic shampoo bottles and plastic wrapped soaps are used instead of refillable dispensers. This would be cheaper and far more eco friendly. Kitchen was well appointed but little to nothing in the way of staples eg cooking oils etc . In many similar properties in the Pacific Palms area this is standard. Though Kitchen cleaning products, plastic film, foil and baking paper are supplied including tea towels. The small front courtyard and back enclosed verandah was perfect for our two dogs annd they loved swimming in the lake and their time at the beach. Dogs are charged extra as to an additional linen cleaning fee to the price which is odd. Cellito Beach nearby is stunning with a great little surf break for our crew. Overall we loved being together as a family over Easter and have the space for everyone to relax.
House was as described and met all expectations. Good relaxing areas, great bedroom options, however sqeeky floors in kitchen did effect those in a bottom bedroom :(
Pool table was great for a teen break out area, leaving the elder generations to enjoy the view and ambience from from the upper deck.
Lots of platters, cutlery, oven trays and pots/pans- great to see in a house definitely designed for large groups.
Would book this again and recommend to others!
Great location overlooking the lake, House very accommodating for loads of people and pets
Probably needs attention on a few little things that make a huge difference. No tissues, toilet paper (only 1/2 roll each approx in 6 toilets) Who takes toilet paper on a holiday to a fully equipped house. No washing powder and only enough spa shock for 1 spa. We were there for 4 days. No serviettes BUT the kitchen was very well. equipped, nothing forgotten there. Very big with every conceivable appliance. Maybe the cleaners could check on the amounts left on rolls and bottles. Tiny shower gel bottles in each bathroom, enough for 1 person per shower.
We enjoyed our family stay very much. The check in process was incredibly easy and the house was comfortable and roomy. Emma was very professional, friendly, and responded quickly to meeting our needs. We have stayed at this property before so did notice some of the furnishings are looking a little tired, but the beds are so comfy, bathrooms are clean and always plenty of hot water. We had a fantastic family celebration and would stay here again.
Property was very clean and large enough for all of us to spread out in different areas. Kids fished a lot down by the lake. Surrounding suburbs like Blueys, Boomrang, Elizabeth Beach are not to far away. Also took a short trip to Seal Rocks & Up to Black Head on separate days.
Would recommenced this property to any large family or even two families. Thoroughly enjoyed our short getaway will hopefully return in the future.

There were bedrooms and bathrooms on all levels of the property which is great for any one with restricted mobility. The outlook was amazing, looking out across the lake and being in the quietness of the bush. If you want to leave it all behind this is the place to stay
This was a fantastic property on Smiths Lake. Great for beach walking, kayaking and shopping
This property was fantastic for a group. Great big dining table as well as enough seating for all of us on the deck. There were 3 Kayaks supplied and we took 3 of our own and although it was winter we still enjoyed the sunny days on the water. The spa was a bonus and although the fire was not working the air con worked a treat. The have all the cooking utensils etc needed and we will definately be back. Awesome***
Great house for our 3 families, for the number of people it holds , the number of bathrooms and separate living areas are ideal. Back deck overlooking the lake is a beautiful place to eat , relax, read a book. Floor plan indicates a table tennis table which was absent , this would be a great addition - could easily be placed in the garage and folded away if not required. Overall we had a fantastic stay, we’ll be back!
I booked Viste delll Aqua for myself and 11 other people to stay in. Being a multi generation group the house was spacious and big enough to cater for everyone’s needs. The kayaks got a lot of use. The bbq was big enough to feed the group and there is plenty of living spaces that people did not feel they were on top of each other. Would definitely go back and would recommend to anyone who is looking to accommodate a large family group.
