The open plan living area offered great views, a modern touch, and had everything we needed for our getaway. We spent a lot of time on the balcony enjoying the cool breeze and views. The bedrooms were well proportioned and the property was noticeably clean. A great pet friendly property. Wish we could have stayed longer and definitely keen to return. ##### Melissa T.

The living/dining area on the upper floor was spacious and light, with wall-to-wall and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the bay. ##### Kenneth F. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Lori M. 6 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Love Merimbula This was a lovely place but a little run down and need of some tender loving care. The dishwasher was broken on our arrival. Unfortunately not able to be used for duration of our stay. Wasn’t clear it was 2 storey, with living area on top level. This caused issues with access. ##### Lori M.
