Fi is such a warm, friendly, and accommodating host. She made everything so easy from the get go and my Borzoi Lucy (large Russian Wolfhound) was very comfortable with the great backyard and the “Pad” was beautifully presented and good value for money to boot. I would not hesitate recommending this place for great dog friendly accomodation. Cheers

We had a great time and took advantage of the easy beach access and fantastic amenities. However, there were dirty dishes left in the dishwasher and a dead cockroach on the floor.

Fantastic place!

My wife and I visited for a weekend stay in March 2024. The accommodation is beautiful - comfortable, quiet, private and tastefully decorated with all conveniences to make it feel like a home. The owners communication with us from start to finish was excellent and made for a wonderful stay. A fantastic place and highly recommended. We'd return again for sure.

Gorgeous converted house in amazing spot

We just loved it here and will be back. And our Labrador had a secure back yard to stretch her legs in. Opposite the beach made the location perfect for a walk through the bush to the best dog beach we’ve seen. And a lovely spot for us humans to swim in too.

Really enjoyed our stay at Fi’s place. Fi gave us a great run down of the area. Very clean apartment with comfy bed with lovely linen and towels. Across the road is access to off leash dog beach so that was great. Frankie 🐶loved the big fenced back yard and Bella 🐶when she visited. Will definitely visit again.
