Boat House Review

The property and its location and traditional beach style ambience could not be bettered from our point of view.It had fantastic views across the beach/sea and the Blackhead "bowl" which could not be bettered. The open plan living from the kitchen area through to the dining and lounge areas, and then onto the balcony was expansive with beautiful timber floors and comfortable furniture. The three bedrooms were very pleasant with their individual views, and the additional downstairs utility area had everything you could need.To sum up, a great place to stay, enjoy the wonderful adjacent beaches and either relax and read a book or start writing one of your own.

Great view. Kitchen needed a grater. Downstairs bathroom had no mirror, and the door lock was broken. Upstairs toilet had no door lock. Upstairs bathroom had no exhaust fan and no door lock, also no anti slip mat or grab rail for shower over bath - this is a huge falls risk for elderly guests (my parents aged 90 92) and it should be stated in the listing that the shower over the bath is upstairs.

Hot water system gave out, halfway through the stay and then we had a power outage another day. I guess out of anyone's control. Not enough storage or space for 6 people. One bathroom, very cramped. No wardrobe in 2nd bedroom....nowhere to put toiletries etc. No wi-fi which meant no movies etc. Kitchen had enough cooking equipment to eat in. Thankfully the weather was excellent and we were able to go out & about.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about the issues you experienced during your stay. We apologise for the hot water disruption, however once the issue was reported, we arranged for the system to be replaced the same day to minimise inconvenience. We also understand how frustrating the power outage would have been, though this was unfortunately outside of our control. For clarity, the property does include a second bathroom located downstairs, which has both a toilet and shower. We’re sorry if this wasn’t clear or didn’t meet your expectations. We also take your comments regarding storage and space on board. In regard to Wi-Fi, the property is not advertised as including this amenity, though we understand this may have impacted your stay. We do appreciate your positive note about the kitchen facilities and that you were able to enjoy the beautiful weather and explore the area. Thank you again for your feedback, as it helps us continue to improve the guest experience. Thankyou, Mid Coast Team
