a bit disappointed

Beware there is no Wifi! The property is lacking some maintenance. It is very dusty in the corners and the beds needs to be replaced. And it is a disgrace to advertise for a spa when you see the state of it: inside the garage and old with lots of tiles missing. No wonder there is no pictures of it advertised. The positive points are the walking distance to little beach and the tennis court.

Do not stay here

The property is at a lovely location , stone throw away from Little Beach and right next to the communal pool. Unfortunately, this is the only positive. The house was clean for an older property - however if you have respiratory issues DO NOT STAY HERE. Horrible mould smell throughout the property, especially from the kitchen cupboards. There were diffusers in every room trying to "mask" the smell. The fans in 2 of the rooms were from 1970s and still had the 1970s grime on it. I had to cover the couch as i felt dirty after sitting on it. No wifi in the property and poor recpetion. The kids beds sounded like they were going to collapse. I think the owner purchased the property and kept the same furniture. Dissapointing as it has potential. The property manager was fantatsic and help my family and myself move from the mouldy place.

Comfortable property in great location let down by onerous booking and check-in process

The property was as described except that there were no towels on arrival and these took over 3 hours to be delivered. Our stay was let down by the booking process which involved the hosts Alloggio, their own booking agency Port Stephens Accommodation and the shopfront in the town of Nelson Bay run by Winning Holidays, which did the check-in and key handover (except on Sundays). I can't recall any of this being mentioned on the Stayz site. After booking and paying 50% through Stayz we were immediately contacted by Port Stephens Accommodation to pay the balance even though it was not due for another week. Stayz and Alloggio advised us to ignore these emails (a systems issue!!) but the 'overdue a/c' emails persisted for a further week until we paid. Thereafter Port Stephens Accommodation demanded that we do an on-line check in (as we were arriving on a Sunday when the shop was closed). This involved providing copies of driving licence, credit card and vax certificates by email which I was not prepared to do for security reasons and agreed instead to take them into the shop on Monday after some negotiation with Alloggio staff. We were still able to collect keys from the secure safe outside the shop on the Sunday . All in all a most frustrating process, the like of which I have not experienced anywhere in the world when booking accommodation.
