Everything was perfect. Very very clean, very modern and spacious, fully equipped. On top of that it was very lovely to deal with the hosts. They were very responsive and informative. Highly recommended. If we are to kindly suggest something to the host to make the stay even better, probably reach out to the neighbour at the back of the property to see if their hedge along their back fence can be trimmed a bit so that the wonderful view of the water from the kitchen/ living area would be uninterrupted. ##### Harsha W.

The kitchen was a good size and very clean. Its not far from the beach for a evening walk. Shops are about a 5mins drive and about 20 mins to Hobart city centre. You do need a car to stay at this place. The owners use a apps called superhog it was confusing as it takes out the payment automatically with no follow up email stating it has done so. Also the owners didnt explain this process so we thought we hadnt pay. Other than this we had a great stay and would recommend this place for a holiday. ##### Michelle M.
