Easter long weekend

Great location and very roomy property. We had a big family and were very comfortable with the rooms and space. The pool and direct access to the bay water was the highlight. So many outdoor activities at the doorsteps.

lovely stay

the property has all you need for a relaxing stay by the lake and near the beach. The living areas and kitchen have all the good stuff. the pool is awesome. A quiet getaway for a mid sized group to enjoy some simple bbqs, games (we brought our own) and fishing (byo gear) in the lap of comfort. Very pretty place.

Great property with amazing views and well appointed with everything we needed.

We would like to thank you for letting us share your wonderful home. The house and outdoor areas were very clean and well stocked with everything you could need; the use of the kayaks such a bonus. A great property for a relaxing stay with an amazing view. Lots to do around as well, bike tracks, beaches, and shops close by. We really enjoyed our stay and felt so lucky to be able to enjoy this little slice of heaven. The property was 5 stars all the way. Throughly recommend.

Relaxing catch-up with friends

What a view! Group of 5 friends catching up for a relaxing weekend. House was spacious, comfortable & well equipped. Beds comfortable & we had enough beds for a bed each. Pool was lovely & weather perfect. We booked water taxi to/from Trinity 8 Restaurant which was wonderful. Jetty adjacent to house. A thoroughly good weekend enjoyed by all. PS: Bottle Shop across the road!

Overall feedback

Overall we were happy with our stay, place was a great size for our group and it is a great location However this is purely for your feedback and for future tenants as the overall cleanliness of the place was a topic of conversation during our stay… Cobwebs outside and some dust inside on the pullouts n some other Items in the draws and cupboard did not appear to be clean and there was bit of a musty smell when we arrived. This is definitely not a whinge, this is purely to let you know what your place is currently like in case you hadn’t been there for a while.

Beautiful relaxing vibe and view

We had a beautiful time at the loveliest home in Chain Valley Bay. I actually don't think the pictures do the place justice... the view is incredible. The home is so very well equipped; and Melissa the host is superb at communication and also very thoughtful. If you are deciding between a couple of places... ponder no more! Book here! ALSO - get a water Taxi to the restaurant called Trinity 8 - it's a fabulous menu - and a wonderful trip!
