The unit was in a good location. The garage door remote did not work. We chased another up from the agent and the battery was flat on that also. The unit was hard to find, tucked behind unit 1. It was not cleaned properly, the balcony had a layer of dirt on, the shower was not wiped down and one light switch had muck all over it. Once cleaned by us and the battery replaced it was great. The kitchen had all the amenities you could need.

Little beach simplicity

Simple and functional property. Quiet with shaded balcony and 2 min walk to the beach. Easy parking and big garage to put bikes and beach gear in. Living area up stairs , airy and well equipped kitchen. Comfortable beds upstairs but sofa bed downstairs uncomfortable. No dramas

Verified review

8/10 Good

The location is very good. Great for a holiday with a young child. The beach is very close.

The cleanliness of the property leaves much to be desired. At the first glance it seemed clean but it fact the place was very dusty. Had to dust and vacuum the place. The balcony floor was covered with sand. We still had a great holiday and enjoyed the location but when you pay the price we paid you expect the place to be clean and don’t expect to start your holiday vacuuming and dusting.
