Wi-Fi Access: Complimentary Wi-Fi is available for guest use and is provided by the property owner. Please use the service responsibly. As the connection is managed by a third-party provider, we cannot guarantee its speed or reliability, and compensation will not be offered in the event of service disruption. No Party & Noise Policy: We uphold a strict no-party and low-noise policy as mandated by NSW Short-Term Rental Accommodation legislation and local council regulations. The property is in a residential zone. Excessive noise, parties, or inappropriate behaviour may result in eviction, police involvement, and/or additional charges. We aim to offer a peaceful stay for all guests and our neighbours. Guest Numbers & Visitors: Pricing includes up to 10 guests. 11th, 12th and 13th guests are at an additional charge and included when you select the correct guest numbers on the booking. The number of guests listed on your booking represents the maximum allowed on the property at any time, including visitors. Visitors may be permitted upon written request and approval. For example, having a couple of family members visit for lunch is generally acceptable; however, hosting large gatherings without approval is not. We are happy to accommodate reasonable requests where possible, in line with house rules and capacity limits. If additional guests are detected who are not booked or agreed to, you will be charged an extra guest fee, and in some cases, where this is abused, you may be subject to eviction.
