Our family were looking for a beautifully located beach home for our annual gathering (family from around the globe) and booked the home. The location is unbeatuable - the views unparalleled - and kids and adults alike enjoyed the river, beach, walks, and ocean swims. The stay however, was marred by the largely unhygienic state of the house. The uncleanliness was not due to previous guests, but rather long term uncleanliness to a level that was simply not acceptable. We've used bachs for over seven years, and never experienced this. We had to spend four hours doing a deep clean of appliances and the barbeucue to get them to an acceptable level. The extractor fan was wobbly, the oven makde a loud buzzing sound, the cutlery draw was broken, there was no toilet paper (40 minute return drive to purchase), and food items over 5 years expiry date were spilled in the food cupboard. In addition the property lists a "Hot tub” but there is not one - I had suggested this being removed weeks prior, which it wasn't, just in case in anyone sees that and is mislead. Sadly, this was communicated to the hosts post the stay with a rather unfortunate response from the host, not ackonowledging the situation & putting furstration and blame on previous guests and location. Despite that we had been given a prior arranged discount for the third night, the uncleanliness and unhelpful response from the host dis mar the experience. With a deep clean and refreshing, it is a truly magic spot.
