Stayed 10 nights in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Kane R. 17 Oct 2022 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Good location Nice location close to the beach and country club. The property is in need of some upgrades and cleaning. The outside was covered in bugs and cob webs. The outdoor seating was old, dirty and just not nice. Inside the bedding and linen was old and could use an upgrade. There was no hand soap in the bathrooms and no sponge/brush for the kitchen sink to wash up. Basic soap and cleaning essentials should be provided. Overall not bad but I'd have to think about returning to this spot. ##### Kane R.

The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Excellent location, the staff at the managing agent we spoke to were very polite, helpful and professional (in particular Gina and Jane who were able to rectify an issue we had with the initial invoice sent to us). Margaret who we dealt with when picking up the keys as well as Mikaela who we handed the keys to were very friendly as well. All staff were extremely helpful and courteous. Location of the villa was great and just a few minutes walk to the beach. the unit was clean and spacious with all amenities and it was overall a great experience. ##### A guest from Winston Hills, NOTAVAIL This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Ana G. 31 Mar 2021 #### Shoal stay Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful.

Reviewer Comments: Front main door very hard to open, you have to pull it hard to the right on entering.The tiles leading into the upstairs bathroom are loose and a dangerous trip hazard and noisy which wakes people up. The foot rest style table in the middle of the lounge room had a broken/loose leg on arrival. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Delta Hotels Worsley Park Country Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-Worsley-Park-Marriott-Hotel-Country-Club.h564451.Hotel-Information) > > [Mandalay Luxury Beachfront Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Mandalay-Luxury-Beachfront-Apartments.h2648804.Hotel-Information) > > [The Lost Camel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Yulara-Hotels-The-Lost-Camel.h4805954.Hotel-Information) > > [Ozone Hotel Kangaroo Island](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kingscote-Hotels-Aurora-Ozone-Hotel.h2737459.Hotel-Information) > > [RAC Ningaloo Reef Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Coral-Bay-Hotels-Ningaloo-Reef-Resort.h4257765.Hotel-Information) > > [Lilianfels Resort & Spa - Blue Mountains](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Lilianfels-Resort-Spa-Blue-Mountains.h872.Hotel-Information) > > [Torquay Foreshore Caravan Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Torquay-Hotels-Torquay-Foreshore-Caravan-Park.h6001296.Hotel-Information) > > [Club Wyndham Airlie Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Airlie-Beach-Hotels-Club-Wyndham-Airlie-Beach.h2802992.Hotel-Information) > > [Bannisters Port Stephens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Soldiers-Point-Hotels-Bannisters-Port-Stephens.h27355893.Hotel-Information) > > [Exmouth Escape Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Exmouth-Hotels-Exmouth-Escape-Resort.h4032424.Hotel-Information) > > [Glamping at Truffle Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gretna-Hotels-Truffle-Lodge.h22239606.Hotel-Information) > > [Rochester Riverside Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rochester-Hotels-Rochester-Riverside-Caravan-Park.h65341713.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort, Port Douglas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Sheraton-Grand-Mirage-Resort.h8065.Hotel-Information) > > [The Carrington Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-The-Carrington-Hotel.h474003.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham Resort Torquay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Torquay-Hotels-Wyndham-Resort-Torquay.h1927122.Hotel-Information) > > [Coral Sea Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Airlie-Beach-Hotels-Coral-Sea-Marina-Resort.h1047180.Hotel-Information) > > [Heron Island Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Heron-Island-Hotels-Heron-Island-Resort.h1636471.Hotel-Information) > > [Beach Resorts & Hotels in Barcelona](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Barcelona-Hotels-Beach-Hotels.0-0-d179992-tBeachHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Copa Cabana at Copacabana](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Copacabana-Hotels-The-Copa-Cabana-At-Copacabana.h33554165.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Hunter Valley Gardens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pokolbin-Hotels-Mercure-Resort-Hunter-Valley-Gardens.h1877968.Hotel-Information) > > [Kangaroo Island Wilderness Retreat](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Karatta-Hotels-Kangaroo-Island-Wilderness-Retreat.h2041654.Hotel-Information) > > [By The Sea Port Douglas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Douglas-Hotels-By-The-Sea-Port-Douglas.h3024406.Hotel-Information) > > [Heritage Trail Lodge Margaret River](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Margaret-River-Hotels-Heritage-Trail-Lodge-Margaret-River.h9624427.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Wrexham](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Wrexham-Hotels.d5625.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [RAC Monkey Mia Dolphin Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monkey-Mia-Hotels-RAC-Monkey-Mia-Dolphin-Resort.h2650828.Hotel-Information) ### Flights ### Holiday Rentals ---
