    Very underwhelming for the price

    Location was ok. House was spacious with air conditioning to make most of the living area suitable.

    Cockroaches either alive or dead. Had to pick up a few. $3 Kmart pillows didn't cut it at all. Handles in kitchen were grimey. Rest of kitchen was newish and fine. Lounges were uncomfortable and quite dirty. Wear marks made you second guess sitting on either of them. TV was quite small as well. Place was very underwhelming considering how much paid for this residence.

    This is a very old house, with an updated kitchen and some reasonable staging.

    Sharp kitchen knives, decent water pressure in the showers. When I flagged issues with the property I received a very prompt response from the listing management organization. The cornice in the rooms looks quite nice. It's a great beach to be near though need to walk further down to find a safe area for swimming.

    BBQ unusable (not clean) on arrival, not enough seating for 5 people in loungeroom, house clearly wasnt properly cleaned or inspected prior to our arrival (dead cockroaches under beds, one live one in the bedroom crawled over my daughters heads whilst she wasnt trying to sleep on night 1, kitchen bench not wiped down, debris in bathtub). None of the blinds actually covered the length of the windows for any of the rooms. This is a very old house, with an updated kitchen and some reasonable staging - too many issues with everything else.

    Exceptional

    Great place to stay. Close proximity to the beach. Lots of off street parking and carport. Located in a quiet street. Would be happy to stay again.
