Great stay. Short walk to Cafe and shops. The house is on a busy street so there is a fair bit of road noise. Also you have access to garage for parking but no remotes provided so can be a small hassle opening and closing the garage.

Response from VrboOwner on Aug 29, 2025
Thank you for your feedback, we really appreciate it. We’re glad you enjoyed your stay and the convenient location close to the cafés and shops. With regard to the garage, we don’t provide remotes as unfortunately in the past they haven’t always been returned after check-out. Guests do still have full access to the garage, but we understand this can mean opening and closing it manually. Thanks again for staying with us, and we’d love to welcome you back in the future.

Perfect location.

Would recommend this property to everyone. Great location with a short stroll to cafes,bottleshop, supermarket, waterfront tavern and more. We had everything we needed within walking distance. House was exactly as advertised. Like new condition. Very comfortable as we were a group of 7 adults. Would stay here again. No hassle checkin with great communication. Shellharbour/Shellcove is a beautiful place to stay.
