Family holiday

I'm a local but couldn't fit my whole family in my small home so I found this. It was fantastic for all of my family and baby neice. My sister came from Darwin with her baby and husband and they just loved it. The grass area was lovely, the bay was clean and the cleanliness of the unit was also great too. Definitely would stay there again

Great location - property needs some work

The property is in a great location and has everything you need. We experienced a few issues with the property not being cleaned properly before check in with all cutlery being left on the bench and in various states of rust and linen not provided. Linen rectified promptly by the property manager. The property needs a deep clean as there were cockroaches, both dead and alive in all rooms.

Great location, apartment needs some work

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location is beautiful and the views amazing. The living room/kitchen of the unit is well-equipped. The bedroom level needs some work. Stained carpets throughout, the fan and light in the master bedroom not working - some nights were quite warm, and the apartment has no air conditioning. Master bedroom had no doona cover/set at all, just the bare doona. Door to back bedroom was broken, and that combined with the carpet stains and no lamp made our daughter scared to sleep in there. The pedestal fans for bedrooms two and three were old and need replacing soon. For the price of the apartment in peak time these things were disappointing. We stayed beach-front in Forster for the same price the week before and the apartment there was much better looked after. The pool at the complex was great and our kids loved swimming there.

Good setting, not great for families

We stayed in unit 4 for the week of Christmas 2018. The views were breathtaking, we enjoyed the lawn out front, and our children kayaked daily. Unfortunately, the retired neighbors who must live there year round were very unwelcoming. They yelled at our kids few times, and ignored us even if we were passing in the car park. It was a real damper on an otherwise great location. We paid a lot of money for the appartment, it was unfortunate that the neighbors were able to influence our stay negatively. I would recommend families find an alternative location.
