Great location, views and lots of space, great big garden for dogs and family cricket. However, house is a bit old and dirty, carpets terrible lots of stains, bbq did not work. The checkin /checkout process was easy and Lakeshore were helpful however some details were also a bit outdated such as incorrect entry code and wifi password. Otherwise, my family really enjoyed our stay in Caves Beach.

View was amazing and the property had everything a family with teens could need. A short walk to the beach and pub. Would definitely stay again. Only minor issue was we couldn't get the kettle to work.

Great view and location.
The view and location of this property is definitely its draw card. Semi-updated property with refreshed living areas but very dated (“original”) bathrooms. The main bedroom balcony has been overtaken by a climbing plant that needs a serious pruning! Was great to have a Nespresso coffee machine in the kitchen but the coffee pods left with it weren’t actually compatible. Had to contact the property managers a few times as check in details weren’t received via SMS, but they were responsive and helpful when contacted.
Great view and within walking distance to beaches and restaurants
The view from the top balcony is beautiful. The yard is huge, so great for kids or dogs.
Needs a little tidy up of the vines at the front of the house, as couldn’t find the key box to start with.

Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately due to the current rain, the vines were a bit overgrown, this has now been addressed. Thank you We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Great location with beautiful views and natural light flowing in on the top floor where we stayed. In rainy weather -nights were cooler so not having aircon inside the bedrooms was not an issue. Kitchen is well equipped. Really felt like home away from home! The huge backyard was enjoyed by our two little fur babies too! Thank you to Ashley from the reservations team - quick response in any mode of communication! minor repair was attended to very quickly...smooth lockbox check in and check out! We truly enjoyed our stay! thank you!
