Great location

Amazing views and really close to the beach. Only downside was that there was no air conditioning, which would’ve been fine given that the house gets a nice cool breeze throughout the day but unfortunately we had stayed during a weekend where temperatures had reached over 43 degrees. Nevertheless we enjoyed the stay with friends and family.

Liked: Location

Our stay at Le Vista, Culburra Beach was terrible. We stayed here for a family member's 30th birthday and we all left wishing we'd have stayed home and saved our money. Our issues were numerous. To begin with the balcony railing was loose on the front balcony. A child could have slipped through and off the balcony to the ground below, this was a major safety issue! The yard isn't secure - one side doesn’t have a fence which means that children and pets can run out onto the road. We paid an extra 100 to have a dog stay there but we weren't told that the yard isn't secure and it isn't clear from the pictures that this is the case. We also had young children staying with us so they couldn't play in the backyard without fear of them running onto the road. The mattresses were immensely uncomfortable and very old. We all left feeling stiff and like we needed to see a chiropractor and couldn't wait to get home to our own beds. The barbecue was disgusting when we arrived and hadn't been cleaned so we couldn't use it and the stove kept cutting out when we tried to use it to cook meals. I would never stay here again. The view from the back balcony is beautiful but not even that is worth going through what we experienced. I called Holiday Rental Specialists (the managing agent) whilst we were there to report the issues but nothing was done during our stay and they don't even have a record of my call.

beautiful view, downstairs pool table, table tennis and soccer game a BIG hit with kids.

Overall the property was good. The views were fantastic, the games room was a big hit with the kids, the beach was a close walk. On the negative, the garbage bin for general waste had some rubbish already put in there and the bin stank. Also there were a few large cockroaches in the house. Not enough teaspoons.

We appreciate your understanding, and we will use your comments to make necessary improvements. We hope to have you and your family back again in the future.

6/10 Okay

Liked: Check-in, communication, location

Great location/view: overpriced

pro: great view and number of rooms as advertised proximity to food and other outlets good cons: No DVD player upstairs One of the bunks was broken and not usable (lucky we didn't need it) - partly held together with cable ties One of the drawers in kids bunk room taped together (again we did not need it - luckily) The front door could only be locked via the deadlock; bit of a safety concern Rear external lights did not work Rear doors (both ground and 1st floor) latching did not work all the time (?) Some mould was noticeable in showers and on window/door runners Sorry that this review has such a negative vibe but I can only submit the facts. Although the location and view are exceptional, and accepting sea air can create many problems, our family are in agreement that the rental fee was more than the house warranted. we would not look at returning whilst in present condition
