Best holiday ever

This was such a joy for the whole family. The children didn’t even register that there was a tv they were so busy outside. The garden and the reserve outside the fence made it a sporting paradise. Will book again without a doubt

View to Die For.

We had a lovely stay at Minnamurra. The position was just wonderful with the lake and Mystery Beach our side your back door not roads to cross and a lovely Cafe up the street the local IGA is about 3 minutes drive away. The Kiama coastal walk starts at your back door also. The villa was clean and very comfortable for the 4 of us. A few spiders webs around and the villa is a little worn .These were the only concerns. The beds were comfortable and would definitely come back again. Thanks for the lovely stay.

A relaxing little haven

The aspect and location of the property is perfect for a quiet get away, but is close to many attractions, so you can choose either the peace and quite or many outdoor activities. Property was clean and kitchen appliances were both well stocked and good quality. The only improvement would be the sealing of the door frames when using the mesh doors as there are gaps which allow a few mozzies in. Would throughly recommend and would return

Pre Christmas holiday

Thank you for having our family, it was a perfect break leading up to Christmas. We have stayed at your Villa several times and love the location, the river, Minnamurra and Kiama towns. The villa works well for a family group, the deck is spacious and perfect for relaxing. Perhaps you could supply some unbreakable plates and cups for the younger family members. Thank you !

Disappointing accommodations but had a great view

This property was misrepresented on VRBO. Clearly someone had staged it for the photos but it did not look good in person, at all. If a place is staged on VRBO, there should be a disclaimer saying so. Other than the place being very "tired" and unappealing, the kitchen tile floor was cracked and when you stepped on the floor, water came up through the cracks! We had to leave early due to the leak and I assume it was repaired. This little "cabin" needs TLC. An area rug or two, a rug in the bathroom, soap in the bathroom, decent artwork, decor, and better beds. The "master" bedroom has an old 4" mattress sitting on 2 X 4's on a standard bed frame. Not good. I hate to be all negative - the view was phenomenal and it had nice little grassy fenced yard. Great for containing small children and dogs.

Hi Sandy, thanks for reviewing Minnamurra Island View. We are disappointed with your feedback. Our photos are styled and represented accurately. We haven't had this type of feedback before so do not agree. The kitchen is being retiled as the dishwasher had leaked under the floor. We have taken your feedback on board and suggested all of this to the owners and working on improving this property. We are pleased to hear you still had positives during your stay as the views are what makes this stay so special. We hope to welcome you back again reassuring that these issues are rectified.
