Fantastic view, but need a thorough cleaning”

Good location. Tranquil surrounding. Fantastic view from the balcony. Well equipped, and have everything we need. Spacious lounge, kitchen, and bathroom. Dog friendly. Spacious area in the garden to walk around.
Mouldy smell in the room and from the kitchencupboard, stained towels, countless mosquitoes' dead bodies on the ceiling of the bathroom, dirty washing machine inner drum.

Okay”

Great views & gardens. Private parking! Was greeted with a couple of lovely homemade muffins & some milk in the fridge!! Well equipped kitchen Nice deck area
Apartment had damp/mould & doggy smell at night. Quilt had a tuft of dog hair on it. No warm duvet. I had to use the electric blanket for warmth. Was a freezing night. Be fine in summer though. Apartment fittings & decor were a bit tired.

Lovely quiet location with fabulous views over the bay and a beautiful walk through the bush-like garden to the water.
Was hard to see the sign in the dark (which admittedly was our fault as we arrived in the night instead of the planned afternoon) and there was no street lighting.

lovely welcoming host and yummy breakfast”

Lovely welcoming host. She left some yummy home made muffins for us which we had for supper on arrival. The unit had amazing view over harbour and a walk way down to beach through her garden. It was also quite and cool on a hot summer night. In morning we arranged for a full breakfast which was very yummy with scrambled eggs and salmon on top, cereal fresh fruit toast and plunger coffee. All in all it was a lovey stay.
