Had a memorable stay in this place. The host, Max, coordinated with us since the reservation was made 3 months prior. The quality of the accommodation and the views were exceptional. Max was always on hand to help with any queries and was flexible with early check-in and late check-out. Highly recommended.
Max was really good. Communicated well throughout. Accomodation had fantastic views. Plenty of space to spread out in. Lots of birds coming to join us each day.
Our stay in this home was fantastic, highlighted by Max's generous communication. The accommodation had everything we needed. There was a good supply of small personal additional items - handsoap, shampoo/conditioner, tissues (both facial and toilet) - in regards to laundry supplies, there was an abundance of laundry pods and a very generous supply of necessities in the kitchen. We were impressed with the small touches of fresh herbs on the kitchen sink and a ready stash of supplies in the pantry.The house itself was clean and comfortable; the ambience beautiful (incredible outlook over the ocean, with beautiful breezes). Morning and evening visits by the resident parrot families. A veritable supply of board games and a tv upstairs and downstairs. Max's communication was quick and nothing was a trouble. We had inclement weather during our stay which made staying in for a day unavoidable - but the house was cozy and inviting. The drive into Apollo Bay itself was quick and the bakery soon became a favourite stop-in along with the "Shelter Cafe". This was truly a fabulous find, with wonderful hosts. We definitely hope to return.
