A tidy property in a great location at Encounter Bay. Right on the water and a short walk to the marina and Bluff. Plenty of space with good sized bedrooms and well stocked kitchen.
We enjoyed our stay here. The location is just beautiful and having a telescope to really engage with the view upstairs was a bonus! There was loads of space for our group of 8. The kitchen has all the utensils you could need. The apartment was fresh, clean and the front room downstairs was a little bit luxurious. Recommend!
