Family getaway

Seawhispers is a fantastic property and suited our needs perfectly. The house was spacious and clean and beds were very comfortable. Lovely big backyard and loads of different spaces to sit and relax or have a meal. Great location to explore the area. We will definitely be back!

Great location

Although the property was in a great location not as clean as we would have hoped. Also, I reported the main bedroom light/fan not working as well as one bedise light. It was never rectified and the owner just mentioned that noone else complained and how hard it was to find tradespeople.. I could not find the clothes dryer as mentioned in the advertisement. Thanks Denise and Peter
