Great location. There are some steps and a 25 minute walk to the Main Street in semaphore. Great facilities, perfect for a short break. Only negative was it wasn’t very clean. Also not enough towels 2 when the booking was for 3 people. Host was a quick personable and responsive person.

Property doesn’t have a view of the sea except from the entrance. But is only a few metres from the beach. Property is a bit dated but clean and comfortable.

Cute place

Small unit with all one needs. Partial sea views from main door and bedroom. It’s on the corner of two main roads so can be a bit noisy on weekends when people are going to beach. Enjoyed our stay.

Response from VrboOwner on 29 Jan 2026
Not sure what the smell was there was nothing the day before & nothing the day after when I visited although another owner said they had an issue with a drains blockage? We had a new cleaner for this stay & I went to view the day after when empty . There was a small piece of a broken plate under the edge of the fridge 2 brown marks in the bathroom sink which where done by a previous tenant by stubbing out a cigarette & a brown dye stain on the washing machine again done by a previous tenant when doing their washing ....neither of which I can remove & had no other issues from anyone else
