We loved our time at Larus. Serene location, close to the activities we wanted to do, but quiet and private. The accommodation is very comfortable, and provided everything we needed. The bush garden attracted plenty of birds, and even a potoroo!We would stay again.

Exceptional - We had the time of our lives

Property is in an absolutely amazing location and is immaculately clean and obviously well cared for. From the minute we arrived we knew it would be hard to leave. Everything we needed for a comfy stay was provided. Very comfortable bed. Cannot fault this property in any way. Would love to come back one day. Thank you so much for having us and letting us share in your little slice of heaven.

Loved the location of this property - right on the water, with a little track from the back door to the rocks by the water. Very quirky interior and very homely, with amazing views from the main living areas.

Beautiful beach house

We only had one night at the cottage but wished we could have stayed longer as it was beautifully located with a spectacular view. It was modern and well layed out and had all the mod cons that you could want.

6/10 Okay

Disappointed

Unfortunately we were at the property on a night when the area received record level rain so we couldn't appreciate the area. It was cold and heater didn't work. Shower required very delicate adjustments to completely shut off. There was no personal contact. Manuals given on operation of appliances. Heater manual was missing so we stayed cold. Clearly an absentee landlord situation.
