Great view

The house was very clean and matched the photos. The steps and driveway are a bit challenging, but the views of the lake more than make up for it. We really enjoyed our stay and highly recommend Aqua Vista

Cosy and well maintained holiday home

Our family had a very pleasant stay at Aqua Vista for 3 nights and the house was very well maintained and clean. Just right for the 4 of us and our dog. The views from the balcony are lovely and family brekkies and lunches on the balcony became an integral part of our trip. Rob the owner is very friendly and agreed to a last minute late checkout which was very much appreciated.

Had a nice stay. lovely and clean. It's pet friendly, but we did not realize there was no backyard as such for our dogs to hang out safely. It was a steep un-fenced area at the rear of the house, and not really a great place for pets.

Thank you for the helpful feedback! We’ve further updated our listing to make it clear that the backyard is unfenced. The yard forms part of the natural landscape and we hope that is what makes it special for our guests with the birds, trees and lake views. It is great that you had a nice stay and that the house was lovely, and we hope to host you again soon!

Amazing view of lake

Amazing view of lake and nice tree top location, Stairs to property are steep but there is a hand rail, there were lights on the stairs but they no longer work so not for the faint hearted at night. House was clean but the bed was very low standard ie sore backs. Other furniture was I guess standard for a holiday house. Toliet seat was cracked so that was unpleasant, surely a cheap easy fix for owner. This house advertised a 9 star rating in 2017 on the door, its no longer that in 2025. Some care would get it back to that rating.

Thank you for your review. We have taken your comments on board. We now have a new queen bed in the master bedroom. We have always clearly advertised that the house is not suitable for people who have trouble navigating stairs. The toilet seat has also been fixed. We would have loved to have fixed it whilst your were staying. Thank you again for taking the time for us to write to us.

The prefect lakeside retreat

Such a comfortable home surrounded by breathtaking views - the perfect place for a writer's retreat. It had everything we needed, although we couldn't quite work out how to use the convection microwave oven. Would definitely book here again.

Relaxing at Smiths Lake

A wonderful finale to our 2 weeks touring the North Coast. We love Smiths Lake and the house was homely, cosy and serene. We loved the cosy cottages furnishings, location and simplicity. A wonderful stay with thanks to Rob for his welcome and orientation to the property.

Week end away at Aqua Vista

The place is immaculate. Environment is tranquil and relaxing. If there is only one minor setback that would be the Wi-Fi. It is slow and almost impossible to access websites and sending photos. Other than that everything else is great!

A little piece of paradise!

We had a wonderful time at the property. So tranquil and peaceful. A morning cuppa out on the deck itself makes the trip worthwhile. The lake is just a few meters walk downhill from the backyard which is awesome. Everyone loved it so much including the dog!
