Dear Heather, glad our holiday house suited you and your family. We are very close to the Clubhouse, so you have the convenience of being close and yet have the extra living space that a hotel room doesn't have. Regards, killian and simone
House was the perfect size for us and everything supplied!

Our place is definitely close to the beach; only a 500m walk to Whites Beach which is rather shallow and flat. Most people are happy to drive the 5 to 10 mins to town. Glad you enjoyed your stay.

Excellent position.
Great week away with the family. Walk to the beach, cold drinks or coffee at the cafe in the golf resort. We had a great time.
Response from VrboOwner on 23 Mar 2020
So glad that you and your family had a nice time, Tim. Yes, our holiday home is just a short walk from both the Clubhouse and Whites Beach. It's a real luxury to be able to go to the beach and grab a drink at the Clubhouse without getting in a car. Wishing you all the best for 2018 and we hope to see you again next summer.
Lovely, clean property with plenty of room. Had all the amenities we needed. We loved the tennis court and pool. Just wish the weather was warmer. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

We hope you stay again.

Spacious and well kept property
We enjoyed our stay at the Sands. The property had everything we needed and was clean and tidy. Its a short drive to the center of Torquay meaning that its quiet and away from the hustle and bustle of the holiday crowds. We highly recommend it!

Glad you enjoyed your stay, Dennis and Jan. We try to keep our place presentable all the time.
Lovely property, although a little tired. After communicating a couple of concerns with the owner to address some cleaning issues they acknowledged that they would be replacing some furniture and engaging with their cleaner. I would stay here again.

Thank you for your feedback, Sharon. Indeed we have already updated the living room furniture, discussed issues with our cleaner and have engaged a carpet contractor with a view to replacing all the floor coverings. We thank you for your honest feedback and hope that you will visit again. Regards, K&S
This place is wonderful.... Open, bright spaces, quiet neighbourhood with views to trees and big skies, bird song and the sound of the ocean. It is close to the beautiful beaches of Torquay and we found delicious places to eat nearby. We also prepared food in the house and we found all the kitchen amenities we needed.
There is a relaxed, happy vibe in the house. The house was impeccably clean. Thankyou for a wonderful stay.
