3 nights in a classic Bach.
Enjoyed our stay by the estuary. Excellent all tide swimming. 5 minute walk to beautiful ocean beach. Bach was basic but clean and tidy. It is a group of three apartments so not exactly a private getaway, depending on who you strike as neighbours it could get noisy. The front top unit is the only one with a good outlook (photo on listing taken from the deck) but the upstairs deck has one of those old sloping rails that children love to climb and hang over and are now illegal. Overall a good stay for the reasonable rate.

Old, musty, unclean
This property is great for families interest in water based activities in the estuary. However, the property is very old and musty. The sofas, curtains, carpets, dining chairs and walls were stained. Ants crawling on the floor and spider webs along cornices. The keys were kept in a locker box in the laundry under the stairs. The laundry was rusty and poorly maintained. Overall, all poor experience and a complete let down. I would not subject my family to this again.

Would recommend to others
Perfect location, tidy & clean. Not sure you're aware, the lamps in the main bedroom need bulbs.. but that didn't dampen the experience. We really enjoyed our stay.
