Perfectly cosy

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A perfectly cosy well appointed space in beautiful Crescent Head easy walking distance to everything you want.Sounds like improvements have been made since some past reviews as the accommodation had both a ceiling fan and a heater.Seems like what used to be a motel renovated into a number of self contained apartment like spaces. Modestly but nicely done.Stayed for 2 nights in winter - 2 adults in room and 2 kids in fold out sofa in living room.. we were cosy, happy and had a great stay.

Decent space

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We did have a few things we wanted to bring up to possibly improve future experiences.The vacuum cleaner was completely snapped/broken and not able to be used - it's not safe and needs replacing and a broom/dustpan would have helped. We had no way to tidy up.The bedroom door had cracked wood, and the frame is broken in the loungeroom. Just wanted to mention those.The mattress is well used on one side - I recommend replacing. I could not sleep at all on it but thankfully my husband took this side so I could get some rest. The bed definitely needs tightening - it's super squeaky and loud with light movements.The tv needs upgrading - a bigger smart tv would help - also doesn't match the user manual in the drawer.There were lots of random bugs/insects - lots of larger ants at night in the toilet.The microwave has no plate - I did see in a previous review and assumed it would have been replaced as we have the same microwave from kmart at home. It does make use difficult. The community laundry definitely needs some updating - the washing machines were broken/had parts off them and I feel like this did affect use (unsure if this is your domain), but definitely needs more pegs or maybe a dryer to assist as well. I recommend a door /windows to help protect from the weather.We appreciated the general supplies, very helpful.Please let us know if any updates are made as well and we will keep in mind for our minimum once yearly visit to Crescent Head.

Not the room we booked

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was fine, we were put in a different unit than the photos we saw, it was pretty dated and the bathroom was not nice, looked like a surf club bathroom. But the bed was comfy and we were only there for the nights so it wasn’t worth following up about. Overall a little frustrating to not be given the one we had booked but an alright stay. Nathan was really helpful with booking

Must be nice in good weather

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We needed a bed for a couple of nights to attend an event in the area. Unfortunately it was during very hot weather. The unit was stifling when we arrived and didn't get much cooler the whole stay. There was no airconditioning and it was impossible to sleep. I'm sure the experience would have been much better in different weather.

Overnight Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Neat & tidy little unit, directions to locate the property was very confusing, we booked for 2 adults & 2 children however we were a bit disappointed to find that we had only been supplied 3 towels & 1/3 of a roll of toilet paper for a family of 4, the kitchen window could also use a blind or curtains to gain privacy from the neighbouring property, apart from that everything thing else seemed good.
