Short stay at Linda’s

It was a pleasant stay at Linda’s property at Athelstone. House was closeby to a small mall, cleanliness was good.

Home away from home

The home was very clean and suited all our needs. We were there for Gather Round and the property was close to bus links. The kids especially loved the puzzles and foosball table. Would highly recommend!!

The house is very comfortable and easy to stay at with lots of thoughtful touches. It was lovely and clean and a great kitchen. We did not have kids but noticed the cot, high chair, and kids books/activities. The supermarket and post office are very close and convenient. National Park is nearby but we did not go as busy with family. On previous visits to Athelstone we have enjoyed hiking in the park and saw koalas.

Clean, tidy and well-provisioned

This house is clean, tidy and was well-provisioned for a 2-week stay with a young family. The property manager was a delight to deal with, very efficient and communicative. Thanks for a wonderful holiday!

Thank you so much for your 5 star review Kate! Your experience is very important to me and your support means a lot. I'm glad my place served your family well as a home away from home and you found the complimentary portacot, change table, highchair, toys, books and games handy to keep the little ones happy. I look forward to hosting you again next time. All the best! Kind regards, Linda

Athelstone Stay

V clean, good facilities, handy location. Bit of trouble with the wi-fi, sounds like a new modern may be required. Barbecue would be a nice addition but overall self-catering was well provided for.

Thanks Peter, nice to hear you enjoyed the home amenities and location. Apologies again for the wifi issue. The NBN technician was out at the property first thing the next morning and fixed it. It was an NBN infrastructure problem out of our control (not our modem). We actually used to have a BBQ at the house but after it getting damaged multiple times by previous guests, we can no longer justify providing one. Thorndon Park just down the road has multiple public BBQ facilities you're welcome to use. There's also a lovely big playground, large chess set, ovals and a lake to enjoy while you're there. 😊☀️Best wishes, Linda, Celestia Homes.

Cleanliness was disappointing and odor of oily food persisted in the kitchen and entryway. Furniture in good shape and beds were comfortable, but floor had many several gaps in the boards and foosball table was nearly unusable. Host was very helpful and communication was great. Clear instructions for check-in and check-out.

Home away from home.

Our accomodation was 5/5 star quality. We felt right at home from the moment we we stepped into the beautiful cosy home, clean and with all necessities available and in perfect working order. Linda is an outstanding host, prompt to reply to any questions and flexible to extend our stay when we were finding it difficult to to leave beautiful Adelaide. Next time we are in Adelaide we will most definitely come back to this home in Athelstone. So grateful to Linda and Keith for their service and top quality care for us during our time in Adelaide.

Not as described on Stayz platform

We did not enjoy our stay as much as anticipated because I booked the property specifically because it was shown to have a pool, listed in the amenities on the Stayz platform. My two grandchildren were very disappointed that this was not the case. Linda was helpful and the error has now been corrected. However, Stayz has not contacted me regarding my complaint even though I have been issued a case number by their support team.To sum up I have no issue with the property but I am not at all satisfied with Stayz lack of response.

Response from VrboOwner on 10 May, 2024
Thank you Glynis. Again, my sincere apologies for the error by the booking platform Stayz/vrbo. We've never had a pool and do not mention one in our description or photos. Unfortunately we have no control over the Stayz/vrbo system. We did our best to help you out and also provided you a prompt partial refund out of our own pocket so that you could take your grand children to the local aquatic and recreation centre nearby, so they did not have to miss out on any aquatic fun. I'm sorry the Stayz/vrbo customer service has let us down in not following up with you promptly. But I'm glad you did not have any problems with our place in itself and I was able to personally help you have a better stay. Future guests, if you have any special requirements or specific amenities you're after, please review the full listing description and photos and double check with us so we can help make sure the home will be suitable for your needs before booking. We sincerely care about our guests' experience and want you to have a lovely time. Best wishes, Linda & family, Celestia Homes - specialising in family and worker friendly stays in Adelaide, SA.

Lovely home away from home.

Lovely, tidy and clean home. My parents recently came from Melbourne to visit us and they absolutely loved this home. Close to everything and walking distance to local parks and playgrounds, including local shops and cafes. Quiet, leafy suburb with everything you need to make you feel like you are home. Thank you Linda for a wonderfully stay.

Excellent family accommodation and host

We required accommodation in the area at short notice. Linda was very accommodating and the property is modern, clean and well-equipped, suiting our needs perfectly. The host kept in regular contact, replied to queries within a short timeframe and was accommodating and flexible when we needed to extend our stay. Highly recommend.
