Had everything required for holiday

Quiet and peaceful. Rustic charm with almost everything that was required. The cons were that the heating/cooling system was very noisy and drowned out the TV whenever it cut in. The shower was barely adequate due to water pressure and being over the bath entirely unsuitable for elderly or disabled. The mattresses are VERY firm resulting in poor, uncomfortable sleep so we left property a day earlier than planned. Overall, expensive for the amenities provided but if you are looking for a rustic experience and young enough to cope with the discomfort then this may be the place for you.

Dear Mary, We take all reviews seriously and make every effort to present the cottage on the website exactly as it is. We have attended the property to review the condition of the amenities and could not find fault with them. We will continue to monitor all amenities to ensure they remain up to standard and as presented. Additionally, we have updated the listing to highlight the shower over the standard bath. It is a shame that the property which is a Beachport original, was not a good match for you, and thank you for your feedback. Many thanks from the owner of the property and for staying with Robe Holiday Rentals.

2/10 Terrible

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
We arrived at the property late afternoon. We bought a lot of our own food to cook and eat due to dietary. As soon as we walked in the house it had a terrible smell. I used my expensive perfume to make the place smell better. We noticed there was an issue with the stumps under the floor. It was uneven in areas by as much as 10cm. The fridge door was filthy, i cleaned the fridge inside and out.the kitchen sink was dirty. My husband ended up going out with my adult son to grt dinner while i cleaned the kitchen and the dirty bathroom. It was when i was cleaning the kitchen sink that it became obvious how badly it was blocked. By that stage I messaged the property after hours number. The response I got was "we will call a plumber in the morning" we sat and waited the next morning. I messaged aroound 10am. I was that all the plumbers were at footy. It didn't appear that the person I was messaging even cared. I had to insist on a plumber and the message response I got was. "The housekeeper checks the sink and nothing was reported". I had to remind the person that the sink blockage was a serious health issue and that it was affecting our weekend getaway to celebrate my 65th Birthday. She could care a less. She tried everything to make me go away. A plumber finally arrived at just after 12noon. The plumber himself commented on how bad and filthy the blockage was. It took over an hour to unblock it. I took pictures of the filthy and rundown estate of the house and sent it

Location, location location

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Easy and stress free. The location is perfect to walk to the shop/s, pub, jetty, play park and most importantly the coffee shop. The house is old and with that you get the usual stuff like wonky floor, older bathrooms and funky wall coverings. The house is totally serviceable and an easy place to set up home for a few days. Let downs are the lack of outdoor seating in the sunny rear garden and limited "security" with an open garden to the street. (via carport) None of this is a deal breaker but with you children it was something to be mindful of. Furthermore the bunk beds are in the main living area so a bit useless if planning on using them for younger children whilst you watch TV etc in the evening. Regardless my kids loved it and we had a nice break.

This was a great little cottage in an awesome spot. Just around the corner from the main street and lots of places to eat as well as the jetty. Perfect for a couples getaway. Wifi would have been an added bonus.

Perfect family getaway

Serendipity Cottage was perfect for our holiday needs! Our city kids loved having the freedom to access the delights of Beachport on their own - the cinema, museum, playgrounds and milkshakes were just steps from the front door! Even more exciting was having the beach and jetty just a 2 minute walk away!

Fantastic location

The pictures reflect the property well and add ons like the hammock, BBQ, outdoor shaded area and croquet set were well used. So handy to amenities, the beach and donut van by the jetty! We will definitely return. Be prepared to bring extra wash up liquid, clothes wash powder and toilet paper though as not enough was available for a family to use across a week long stay.

Attractive property, very well-located in the heart of Beachport in walking distance of shops, pubs and beaches. Simple, no frills cottage with all that might be required. Some heating in the bathroom would be a bonus but not a big deal. Comfortable bed. Enjoyable stay
