This was an ideal overnight stay for us. Bed was comfortable, hosts were discreet but also very available. The suite was spotless and had all the amenities for a comfortable, pleasant stay.
A fantastic escape for me. Everything was perfect with the accommodation .... Immaculately clean, big room with ensuite and kitchenette, close to shops and lake.
I will definitely return and highly recommend to anyone.
Big thanks to my hosts Michelle and James.

Thanks for your kind words. Really appreciated you leaving the room spotlessly clean. Welcome back any time!
Overall excellent. Only one suggestion, another easy chair so that evenings are not spent laying on the bed.
Otherwise exactly as we expected.
Thank you

Thanks for the feedback. As space is limited in the room we now have a comfortable, padded moon chair in the wardrobe which can be used. It's folding so it can be be put away so you're not tripping over it when not in use. Glad you enjoyed your stay. B
Perfect place for one or a couple. Just one office chair, which my husband sat on to watch TV, while I watched, sitting in bed. Toaster, electric frying pan, microwave, kettle and bar fridge…great for simple meals. A small table and 2 stools were a tight fit but worked fine.Great eat in or takeaway food options in Wangi just 5 minutes drive away.
Beautifully presented. Happily recommend.

About the host
Hosted by Michelle and James

Both are active in the community.
Why they chose this property
We love Wangi and the peace and tranquility of the area. Dobell Drive is not a through road so we get very little traffic and the bird songs are great. Wangi Bay is often filled with yachts, jet skis, kayaks etc and there is a shelf of rock down the bank opposite our place with steps leading down to it, that is a popular fishing spot.
What makes this property unique
The sunsets are spectacular. You don't have lake views from your room unfortunately but the lake is just across the road. There are bush walks at the end of Dobell Dr, within walking distance, or view the World War II bunkers up on the ridge overlooking the lake, again within walking distance of our house. We enjoy sharing our house although you have complete privacy with your own entrance to the room, ensuite and kitchenette.
