  Basic Accommodation Only

  I was in town on business for two days but found the room not very good to work in with only a coffee table to work on from a couch. There was no chairs in the room. The position of the couch meant you could not sit on it and watch the TV. The only way to watch the TV was to sit on the bed which is not the most comfortable way to relax and watch TV if you like sitting up to watch it. The bathroom had all the usual fitting plus a very large SPA which is fine if that is your thing. Mine is solely showers but make sure you bring your own soaps. The towels were like hessian sacks. While cutlery was supplied it clearly was collected from bits and pieces. The room does have a microwave and bar fridge but no table to eat off unless you consider your knees a table. The washing up had to be done in a bowl as there was no sink. They do provide a BBQ with the unit which is OK but cutting a piece of cooked steak on a plate on your knees is a challenge. Look out they demand a $500 holding deposit which they claim they will refund 7-10 days after your visit. There was no WI-FI offered nor available. I would not bother staying here again.

  A getaway in Exmouth

  It was a bit disappointing, the positioning of our Villa - it was really close to the main road (Murat) and lots of noisy traffic - also very open, no privacy when sitting outside to try and enjoy a bit of peace and quiet :( or to cook a bbq. Perhaps a bit of a fence or some other type of screen should be put up, to block the outside area from the road a bit more ?? The property itself was quite nice inside, however it did look quite "tired". It was neat and tidy, but far from "perfect" !!! the cushions on the two settees were stained and were very worn. The vertical blinds were missing quite a lot of blinds, so it was not possible to even close it fully at night, again, no privacy - we could just wave to people walking past outside on the street !! There was also a pretty bad sewerage smell in the bathroom, very unpleasant. We had to run the two exhaust fans the whole time we were there, to try and get rid of the smell ...

  Reasonable for around here?

  Self contained with decent amenities. Main bed was comfortable. Kitchen cleanliness is dependant upon previous occupiers so we washed everything before using because it was visibly dirty. TV had a DVD player which was great as we had brought some with us. Lounge n furniture was all pretty tired but OK. Wasn't very impressed to receive email day before we left telling us to sweep floors, empty bins and put bin on verge?!

  Spacious home and well placed in town.

  Spacious, clean and good amenities in the villa house. Pool in the compound small, uninteresting and could be improved with a slide even, to be more inviting after a long day out. Very exciting to have the resident emus walking around! All in, a pleasant place to stay and to chill out.

  Not happy

  Power shortages and not worth the money and bond we paid and we cleaned it better than when we arrived
