The apartment is quiet and surrounded by greenery. An easy walk to coffee. Great Holiday ##### Georgia I. Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 17 Mar 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Old, tired and dated in many ways. Our early check in request was forgotten. We had to chase up early access, which was thankfully forthcoming. There is no lift, so with 3 stories to climb, it made for a tedious exercise only suitable for the fit and able. The bed was falling to pieces and underneath the bed was not clean. The shower/bath was mouldy. The deck parquetry flooring was falling to pieces and this made it dangerous to walk on. Hammer drilling in a neighbouring apartment beginning on the first afternoon and again on the Saturday morning, gave us reason to vacate and get out and about. As did the neighbour's children early starts on both mornings. This was due to the twin apartment access door being so thin. It may as well be a curtain, as it lets all sounds through easily. The early morning shower water noise coming from the next door apartment should be addressed. This is an easy fix. The light white curtain, without a blind, added to our early rise. No chance of a sleep in here. There was no ironing board, just as well, as the iron had a thick layer of burnt on melted plastic making it unusable. The clock had a flat battery. All in all, it was a stressful time as we prepared for a wedding event on the afternoon of our arrival without even a tea bag for a cuppa to settle us down. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 From a partner site ### 6/10 Okay #### A guest from Glenmore Park, NSW 8 Oct 2024 #### Islander Resort Review Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful.

The water jug was broken which was full of glass inside the bottle, it looked like ice but under further inspection it was glass 😳 my wife almost drank some!!! I would definitely stay there again, it was just a few little things that could happen at any apartment. ##### Russell G.

Some pillow cases stained. Outside furniture set is a potential hazard - rusted and flimsy. Clothes horse on balcony broken. One bedside light needs new bulb. Aircon needs a clean - very dusty with musty smell, not usable. ##### Norma H. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2023 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Margaret T. 23 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Dated furnishings We did enjoy our stay on Straddle. Looks like The Islander apartment 23a has had some modernisation. However a trip to Kmart or an online order to purchase some items would be recommended. Things I would buy would firstly be new pillows. There is a new washing machine there, but no usable clothes airer. No hair dryer. Purchase new coffee cups (one chipped) Only one drinking glass. No tea towel. These are inexpensive items that would certainly improve the rental stay. ##### Margaret T. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 Archival ### 6/10 Okay #### Graeme 24 Feb 2017 #### Newly renovated but impractical Unit is a 4 storey walk up! Armoire instead of wardrobe is too small/limited hanging. Refrigerator and separate freezer ridiculous for a short stay. Better to have 2 refrigerators with normal freezing section in top. A shower that doesn't leak over the floor preferable to a bath. Unit desperately needs AC as concrete roof above and hot water unit inside makes the unit an oven in summer. Kitchen window should be louvres to allow through ventilation with door shut. ##### Graeme From a partner site ### 6/10 Okay #### Matthew D. 6 Jun 2023 #### June Week Stay Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The apartment was not cleaned to an acceptable standard (or in a condition anywhere near the photo on ). I have operated similar short term accommodation sites and understand what level of cleaniness is required (curtains were moldy, bathroom window very soiled and living room floor rug needs to be replaced). Very basic amenities and upgrade to outside furniture and screens on doors is needed. 1 roll of toilet paper provided for a 6 day stay / dishwasher not cleared / items left in washing machine. very poor attention to detail for our arrival. ##### Matthew D. ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Hotels near Porthminster Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porthminster-Beach-Hotels.0-l6094453-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Hotels in Manilva](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manilva-Hotels.d6035403.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [Inns Knaresborough](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Knaresborough-Inns.d4670-aaInns.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > - [The Victoria Falls Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Victoria-Falls-Hotels-The-Victoria-Falls-Hotel.h24943.Hotel-Information) > - [Artemis Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chania-Hotels-Artemis-Apartments.h4320519.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels in Smarden](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Smarden-Hotels.d6257429.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [Hotels in Playa Paraiso](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Playa-Paraiso-Adeje-Hotels.0-n6047465-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Hotels in Lambeth](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lambeth-London-Hotels.0-n179527-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Hotels in Ville-Marie](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ville-Marie-Montreal-Hotels.0-n6241991-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Gay-Friendly Hotels in Plymouth](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Plymouth-Hotels-Gay-Friendly-Hotel.0-0-d2817-tGayFriendlyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Hotels with Pool in Wembley](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Wembley-Hotels-Hotels-With-Pool.0-0-d4253-tHotelswithPool.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Hotels in Antibes Old Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Antibes-Old-Town-Antibes-Hotels.0-n6166143-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Beach Resorts & Hotels in Ksamil](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ksamil-Hotels-Beach-Hotels.0-0-d6193554-tBeachHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > - [Flights from Belgrade (BEG) to Manchester (MAN)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/beg/man/belgrade-to-manchester) > - [Flights from SeaTac (SEA) to Jamaica (JFK)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/sea/jfk/seattle-to-new-york) > - [Flights from Kota Kinabalu (BKI) to Sepang (KUL)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/bki/kul/kota-kinabalu-to-kuala-lumpur) > - [Flights from Kirkwall (KOI) to Manchester (MAN)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/koi/man/kirkwall-to-manchester) > - [Qatar Airways Manchester (MAN) to Ahmedabad (AMD) flights](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flight-routes/qatar-airways-from-manchester-to-sardar-vallabhbhai-patel-intl/qr/man/amd) ### Activities > - [Things to do in Es Figueral Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Es-Figueral-Beach.d3000017721.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > - [New York Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/New-York.d178293.Holidays-City-Breaks) > - [Talisay Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Talisay.d6141578.Holidays-City-Breaks) > - [Ludlow Castle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ludlow-Castle-Ludlow.d6084101.Attraction) > - [Esslingen Christmas Market](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Esslingen-Christmas-Market-Stuttgart.d553248621563229003.Attraction) ### General > - [Visit Kristiansund](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kristiansund.dx1930) ---
