Not So Great Accommodation in a Great Location

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: When finally getting into our room, after attempting to follow the bad instructions for car parking, we found missing skirting boards, mystery stains and no promised free Wi-Fi with terrible mobile reception. Beds were not the most comfortable and shower was not great, but bathroom was clean. Kitchen area was adequate for short weekend stay, and rooms were a good size. Balcony facing the car park was fine but could be noisy. Location to central Cowes area and the beach was great.

The Waves Cowes Phillip Island

We were led to believe from the online photos that we would have sea views. But we got the car park instead. The shower was not properly sealed and it flooded the bathroom and toilet whenever we used it. We used all the towel that we wee given to seal the base and had to use our beach towels after showering. We also were given the bed linen when we picked up our keys and had to make our own bed. No very professional.

A great place for a family stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. 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: We stayed here over Easter and were absolutely delighted with our time away. The apartment was located perfectly, clean and comfortably fitted our family. It had a roller door to separate the kids sleep area to the parents sleep area which meant they could go to bed earlier if needed-perfect for young families. It was described exactly how it was presented and getting the keys on a public holiday was very straight forward.We thank you for our stay and will definitely consider this or another property via you in the future.

Likes- Very good location Secured parking Price Not so likes- Top bunk bed not safe for either a child as no railings or an adult as not sturdy so we were not able to use it Tv remote was sticky to the touch I tried to clean it but the grime was so thick so I just wrapped it in plastic when using it Felt a bit unsafe without the deadbolt in the front door Too many rules on your face that it dampened the mood a bit of being on vacation
