Overall, this property was both family and pet-friendly, with spacious communal spaces for big groups. However, the accommodation listing requires correction. The property is advertised with beddding configurations that sleep 21 people, but Bedroom 5 was missing one trundle bed. When I noted this discreapncy upon arrival, I asked the host who were quick to respond but never provided an actual solution. This necessitated my group to bring our own mattress in order to accommodate the advertised number of guests. Importantly, while there is both an upstairs kitchen and a downstairs kitchenette, the appliances were scarce and not user-friendly (e.g. only two cutting boards, very blunt knives, and one baking tray). Importantly, the dishwasher was faulty and would not always start a washing load or complete a satisfactorily clean cycle. In addition, the cleanliness of the property was substandard in both the kitchens and bathrooms (i.e. unflushed toilet). In summary, we would recommend this accommodation with the caveat of being prepared to adapt to mismatched expectations. Aside from these, the location served sufficiently for our church's weekend getaway and we did, overall, enjoy our time in this accommodation. Thank you for having us!
The property was good for what we needed. 10 kids, 11 adults, and a dog. There was lots of space and the second kitchen cane in handy. We had a lovely time. If Iâm being honest there were a few things that could have been improved on, like the wobbly balcony rail and all the spider webs, but we still really enjoyed ourselves.
We enjoyed our stay at this property with my 80 year old parents,their 3 daughters, husbands and adult grandchilren.Great upstairs entertaining area. 7 bedrooms were comfortable. We loved being so close to Bayview golf course.
Only negatives were that the stairs were a little difficult for anyone with mobility issues which we did not take into consideration when we booked but we managed them ok with my elderley parents. The kitchen downstairs does not have any hotplates or an oven and the hooded BBQ pictured in the photos is not there in case that effects anyone's meal planning.
It was a great house for everyone to be together in but you could have your own space if needed,
Overall we really enjoy our stay, the house had plenty of room and was great, however there were a lot of negative things that we werenât happy with for the price we paid we expected a little bitter. We thought we would leave a list so they can be reviewed and perhaps we could get some reimbursement or at the minimum it would hopefully be fixed for future visitors.
- air conditioner ups stairs didnât work, had to wait for someone to come and fix it
- Next morning power tripped when we used the toaster and we had no power at all
- Tv upstairs didnât work, had to have a tv man come to fix it the day after we arrived
- Oven didnât work
- BBQ not useable due to rust on hot plate
- No hand towels or tea towels provided but in the instructions it only said we had to supply our own bath towels and linen
- Cleanliness wasnât great, kitchen appliances (kettle ect) greasy and dusty, cobwebs all over inside of windows.
- Stated on Stayz there was a trundle bed in one of the double bed rooms however there wasnât one so we were a bed short.
- No cleaning cloths or dish liquid downstairs
- Nothing to scrub pots with
- Kettle downstairs did not work
- Bushes in driveway overgrown and scratched our cars
- Double bed upstairs incredibly squeaky, couldnât even move a cm without waking the other person up
- Door knob on one if the bunk rooms upstairs fell off when turned and almost locked someone in the bedroom
Our group of 21 people stayed here and we had a good time. There was lot of space inside. I was hoping for a yard for the kids to kick a footy, but there isn't really one - there was a small gazebo.
There is a BBQ, but 10 minutes into cooking we ran out of gas. Something to maybe check before starting to cook!
All in all, a comfortable stay for our big group.
Overall a lovely house. Few things though. The rumpus room was pretty dirty and there were no table tennis balls. Also the ALDI coffee machine did not work. The bbq was not clean and the sink in the ensuite kept getting blocked.
This house is large and spacious. The kids had a great time playing boardgames and using the table tennis table. Definitely recommended for large group's of families looking to holiday together.
