Plenty of room , very clean , great location . Fans were provided but probably needed bigger ones or the house could benefit from air con ( we stayed on a very hot week) , down stairs clean but a had a slight damp smell .

Great summer holiday base for extended family

We love staying at Brett’s place. It is very child friendly with a big, closed in balcony, two tv areas and kids plates, cups and utensils. We can spread out as an extended family but also get together with a big main lounge. I would definitely recommend staying here if you have a group.

Another great annual visit to Lanterns

Great house for a large group of friends or extended family. Just a little out of town but a nice quiet location. Loved the back deck, beautiful spot to sit out and read a book and a very well-equipped kitchen. Hope to be back again next year!

All aspects of our stay were exceptional. The layout of the property was ideal for our family. Children had their own area to entertain themselves whilst the adults had their own space.

Happy time

"Lanterns" is a well maintained, very comfortable property for a stay any time of the year (ours was winter). Walking distance to One Mile Beach, short drive to shops. Our mixed age group would happily visit again.
