Floating Indeed

Great property for a big group! All the modern conveniences included. You could stay at the house all day, without having to venture out. But Port Macquarie is too good to just stay at home. Thanks to the property management team and the owners....we had a great holiday!!

Beautiful as always

I have been here multiple times and every time it’s the same, always clean with no hassle. Oh only thing is the BBQ was not cleaned when we got there but we didn’t end up using it so no issues for us. Thank you for always giving us a beautiful home to create our memories and relaxing and unwind from the hustle and bustle 😊

Calming view !

We enjoyed kayaking in the canal and trying our luck to catch a fish. My son played a fair bit of table tennis (despite the broken leg of the table) and beat me (of course, it’s because the table was titled otherwise I would have won). Smart TVs connected to Internet were great as we were able to watch a movie with the family in the evening. Quiet, nice and beautiful neighbourhood.
