The property was exactly as described, check-in was easy via lockbox and it's a huge place. Everything was uncomplicated and I would recommend the place when traveling with a larger group.

This house was a great hub to explore the area from. Very clean and great natural light. The house is starting to feel a bit worn but perfect for a coastal beach day.

Great Location

The property is really lovely and spacious. Bac k yard is really nice. Great music system you can connect to. Kitchen well equipped. Easy walk to the beach. Overall comfortable stay. Will request the owners to kindly provide proper fans for warm days and not provide fans that are actually heater fans.

Lovely family space

Lovely house that suited for the occasion. Off street parking for too cars is a little misleading in that the photo showed a garage but no mention was made of the fact that guest don't have access to it. Very steep driveway is really not suitable to park on. Having said that we managed to park 3 cars on the grass verges.

6/10 Okay

The house was in need of some maintenance. Oven not working correctly, fridge in laundry did not work, no bedside lights of full length mirror, not enough crockery. House was very cold and insufficient heating and no throw rugs. We called the agent and thought someone would have com to try to fix the fridge, very disappointing

Great house & location, but unfortunately lack of attention to maintenance. The lock on the sliding door out from the kitchen was broken and we had to call for urgent repair in order to open the door. The doors out from the main bedroom also didn't open and none of the keys opened it. Several of the fly screens had fallen off windows and many of the blinds were broken or close to breaking. There were balls of dust under the single beds where the kids slept. The fridge in the laundry wasn't cold and the freezer was frosted over. The kids TV was unplugged and no batteries in the remotes - a Foxtel password was required to make the TV work but not provided.

One of the beds was broken and had to be taken away, no air conditioning, heating was insufficient and when the electric heater was plugged in the TV cut in and out. Water pressure was great but the water pump was very noisy.

Great Christmas holiday home

We recently stayed here for 5 days over Christmas. Great big house - lots of space and huge kitchen. We really enjoyed the backyard and the beach which was a 5min walk away. The only issue we had was their fans didn’t work very well and we had a 1 year old - the rooms tend to be quite hot at night. Apart from that we really loved our time there.

needs maintenance, listing inaccurate

Why is this listed as Gerroa? This was misleading as that was our preferred area. This place needs maintenance badly. Lots of lights needed replacement bulbs, lamps not working, bathrooms not really cleaned. Opened used first aid kit in one drawer? Tampon wrapper in another?? Water leaking through laundry light switch, Power cords from entertainment units dangerous and filthy. We had three electricity shortages during our stay - just trying to turn on room lights and had to find the fuse box to ensure we had lights! I wouldn't stay here again.

Hello Irene, thank you for leaving a review. Palm Oasis is awaiting a complete high-end renovation by the owners, however in the meantime its fabulous location still works for most guests who choose to stay. Hopefully next time you book we can help find the perfect fit for your holiday.
