The property is modern and relaxed with meticulous attention to detail. It has a well sized deck overlooking the ocean ... complete with a large outdoor setting, comfy chairs and BBQ. There is undercover parking and a well equipped laundry. Just superb. ##### Rhonda C.

Great for the whole family. Overall, the property is well maintained and easy to look after. The only downside is there is no local shop for snacks or takeaways. You have to drive 15-20 minutes to be able to pick up any items you may have forgotten to bring for your stay. ##### Lynn G.

The highlights for us were location, watching the water from the front rooms and the front deck, and the quiet location happily - except for the sounds of waves - all meant none of us wanted to leave. Wifi for the teenage boys and working remotely for me was ideal. Remote Host Anthony was responsive and exceptional. A credit to him what he has provided for others to enjoy. Our family is grateful.

Loved waking up to the sunrise and falling asleep to the waves crashing. The adults enjoyed the tranquillity of the location and the younger members of the family enjoyed the Netflix and Wi-Fi. Made great use of the deck with outdoor setting for enjoying a few drinks and nibbles. Definitely recommend this property if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle and just relax. ##### DIANA H.

Has everything you need for a great time away. Secure backyard for dogs to enjoy. Netflix and wifi. Great outdoor front deck that you can relax on, cook a bbq and watch the amazing sun set. I would highly recommend this 'shack' as a place to stay and would stay here time and time again. ##### ROHAN P. This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good 5 Jul 2017 #### Great Location Compact, tidy unit in a great location straight across the road from the beach. Has a playground across the road also. Very comfortable and quiet. Would definitely stay here again. This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 6/10 Okay #### Jenny C., Aldershot 29 Mar 2017 #### Relaxing view and setting We enjoyed our stay, however the lack of anywhere to hang clothes in the main bedroom and very limited space to move around the bed was a hindrance. If the furniture was swapped around and the bunk was in the front room and the queen bed in the second room, there would be ample room to move around the bed, and hanging space for clothes for the adults. ##### Jenny C.

Well furnished and the kitchen has everything you need. Board games, a full laundry and beautiful views of the pacific ocean. There's a great park directly across the road so you can literally sit on the deck and relax while the kids play safely. We loved the fact that we could bring the dogs and enjoyed running them on the beach every morning. The tv has Netflix and reads usb hard drives and plays all the latest files. There's a ueboom as well and the Wi-Fi is fast and included. Besides the weather from time to time we really really enjoyed our stay. Well done Gtasstree beach shacks. We'll be recommending this place to our friend's. ##### Ann O.

Pet friendly (outside) in a spacious secure yard. The owner is great and was very accommodating to our needs. Airconditioning in the bedrooms, affordable price and the added bonus of good wifi was excellent too. Thank you ##### ASHLEY W. This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bret R. 25 Jun 2016 #### Delivered on Promises We booked both units and found the location ideal. Maximum 20 minutes drive from anything your likely to need for a relaxing vacation or just simply stop in and cater for yourself in the fully equipped kitchens or use the BBQ. What an outlook, great beaches parks and just a few hundred metres up the road are handy boating facilities of the highest standard for a quiet coastal village. As boaties we found the ample yard space and easy access a real bonus. Highly recommended for families, boaties and those looking for clean well appointed accommodation. ##### Bret R.
