Awesome winter weekend away

Great weekend away with the family at the last minute. The hosts were amazing with fast communication and checking in with us to ensure we were all set. Arriving late Friday and the house presented beautifully and very clean, with comfortable beds for us and the kids, all amenities mentioned in the advert working as expected and a fantastic location to the central shopping centre. We would highly recommend this home and hosts and look forward to staying again soon.

Very tidy and close to shops

We had a wonderful stay at Bonnie-Doone. It was very clean and tidy and had everything we needed. Was great to have a bath for our pre-schoolers as most holiday homes tend not to have them. Had any questions answered very swiftly - great communication from the owner. Thanks again!

Fantastic house to holiday in has everything . Definitely returning as others also who visited

Having had a beach house and also sometimes renting through Booksbatch this holiday home ticked all the boxes. A sheer holidayers delight. Cleanliness, space, proximity to beach, shops, golf etc, kitchen providing all you want on holiday with plenty of crockery etc. fabulous big deck for lots of outdoor living. Family and friends all had very favourable comments and this holiday house is now in their list also. Kylie was a pleasure to deal with. Thank you again for a short but great stay.
