The house was even better than we imagined. We stayed here with a large group and had the most incredible time. The space is beautifully designed and thoughtfully laid out, with plenty of room for everyone to spread out and enjoy different activities. There are so many little details that make it feel more like a home than a rental. Everything was spotless, comfortable, and clearly very well cared for. We couldn’t recommend this place more and would absolutely stay again.

Fabulous stay

My family and I had an absolutely fantastic stay at Freshwater Pearl during my wedding week. We loved everything about it. It’s a gorgeous property, very comfortable with everything we could possibly need, and we loved sitting on the terrace in the morning and using the outdoor bbq in the afternoon. The pool and sauna were also fabulous! Hollie was a great host and very responsive to any queries that we had. Highly recommend to anyone looking to stay in Freshwater

Memorable stay! Gorgeous house.

Fantastic place! Perfectly setup and equipped for a relaxing break, with a large terrace and lots of outdoor space (inc. entertainment cave & sauna!), my family & the children enjoyed the space. Location was very convenient to get to the shops and close proximity to freshwater beach as well as easy access to manly & the northern beaches. Host was friendly and did her utmost to make sure we had a memorable stay. Such a unique house, really felt like a luxury getaway treat for our family! Would Def recommend.

Perfect weekend getaway!

Me and my family had a great stay in this fantastic property. It had everything we needed - bbq terrace, entertainment cave, sauna, log fire, kids playthings and equipment etc. The pictures genuinely don't do it justice as the space and quality of the furnishings are very high quality. Location is ideal with an easy walk to local shops and the beach. We also needed to get into the city which was an easy drive. One of the best rental experiences we've had. Would Def recomend

2/10 Terrible

Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy
Disliked: Check-in, communication
The host did not provide check in instructions. The phone number did not work. We had to contact customer support to get the code into the accomodation. The host offered a partial refund & then proceeded to not respond to any further messages. The lights flicker in the lower room, the upstairs exhaust fan in the bathroom does not work, bedside lamps do not work in the bedroom upstairs, we had to DoorDash toilet paper as two rolls were provided for 12 people. We paid almost 5k for this reservation, despite the house being beautiful, it was very upsetting that it was such a letdown with communication & any form of compensation for the inconvenience.

Hi Jan, I presume this was a typo. Particularly considering your party caused over $8,000 worth of damages including a fire in the garden (all of which we chose not to charge you for!) and this review was left nearly 3 months after your stay! Best wishes
