One of the easiest hosts we’ve had, who were friendly and consistent with their comms with us. The property was more than what we expected for our family of 10. Lots of space and well equipped with everything you would need when on holiday. The perfect home away from home.

Warm and comfortable

The property was well set up for 10 adults, we all commented on how comfortable the beds were. The house was clean with bedding and towels provided. The property was warm and the lounge caught the sun most of the day. The location was perfect to explore Two Mile Bay, we had a lovely brunch at the Two Mile Bay Sailing Club.

Good

Property was good. A couple of things could be improved. A hand towel in the toilet where there was a basin would have been helpful, only one was provided in the bathroom. No tea towels at the property. One of the downstairs bedrooms had a chest of drawers but nowhere to hand anything and the other bedroom had nothing.

We’re glad you enjoyed the property overall. 😊 It sounds like our cleaner may have forgotten to leave a few items , we do provide hand towels and tea towels, so we’re sorry they were missed on this occasion. Had you contacted us during your stay, we would have been more than happy to bring those over right away.
