Stayed 22 nights in Dec 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Sandy F. 21 Jan 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Great location but … We enjoyed our stay overall mainly due to the location of the property and general layout of the home but we did find that there were some problems which has affected our overall rating. We wouldn’t expect these issues especially when paying top dollar. The issues were: 1\. We found that there was a mismatch between the photos and description from the listing and reality. A) The photos were very vibrant and bright but in reality the main area was dark during the day even when we opened up all windows. B) The Greek beach style theme wasn’t really reflected either throughout the home. We envisaged something similar to the Greek restaurant in McCrae which has fresh and vibrant colours. C) The listing states three bathrooms but there were only two. 2\. We had things that weren’t working as you’d expect, eg. Roller door for ensuite kept on jamming (needed to fix multiple times to function), toaster - half , non functioning multiple ready hang blinds, kitchen drawers 3\. The bathrooms were unsafe due to the concrete floors when water sitting on top. In particular unsafe for kids seniors and physically challenged people. Not sure how council approved? ##### Sandy F. Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### lauren V. 11 Nov 2022 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### holiday the accommodation was lovely and so close to the beach and shops. The owner got back to us immediately when we had a query, she was very obliging. Would definately recommend for bigger families. Will stay there again when overseas family visit ##### lauren V. Stayed 10 nights in Nov 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Julie G. 21 Apr 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nice stay Nice property. However, no hairdryer was very disappointing and the can opener didn’t work which caused a major drama at dinner time when everyone was expecting a dinner which didn’t happen. Raced out to the closest supermarket to buy a can opener and couldn’t find one . I know it sounds like nothing but ended up being a major stress when we were trying to relax. For a house of this calibre, the lack of hair dryer and unusable can opener was disappointing to say the least. However, overall it was a nice stay and we were very grateful of the bottle of wine to welcome us - a nice touch ##### Julie G.

Main bed and sofas could do with upgrades. Interesting wet area/ showers, and a fantastic bath. Moments away from a good beach and great cafes. If you've got a dog, check out the community leash free forest about 20 mins drive away. Don't leave hoovering to the last minute - the dyson battery lasts only a shortish time. Great outside entertainment area. Nice and well kept garden. ##### Aileen Y.
