Location great, accommodation overall okay. It’s 2025 to not have wi-fi or air con is sad. Only 2 pedestal fans, 1 of which did not work. And photos of accommodation was very deceiving.

Hi Letitia,
Thanks for your feedback. The property isn't advertised as including Wi-Fi or air-conditioning. Thank you for letting us know one of the fans wasn't working, we encourage guests to let us know about issues like this during your stay as we could have had this replaced for you. We are unsure what you mean by the photos being deceiving, the property is a simple beach shack & the photos reflect this. Thankyou,

As in the past we had a great time at Blackhead. There were a few broken bars on bunks and wall sockets and some of the bedside table lights are broken but the new air fryer was a great addition and helped for quick meals.
Fantastic location. The property is clean but lacks some of the nice touches. The queen bed was comfortable enough but the bunk beds were very uncomfortable and noisy.
This place would be perfect with a few small changes. We had a great holiday.

A great place for our family to spend a week at the beach. Accommodation was spacious, clean and had everything we needed. Kids learnt an important life skill of washing up! Loved that we could see the beach from almost anywhere in the house and hear the waves. Central to shops and dining options- didn’t need to get in the car all week.

Imea Blue was fantastic, great views and position to the beach, shop and surf club. Great for two couples with large open lounge, dining and kitchen area with fantastic views over the beach. The front deck was a great spot to relax with a beer or two. Clean and comfortable and the agent was great to deal with. Highly recommend. We'll be back!

Wonderful location and a good house that is in rough and ready condition. The main bed was comfy and clean. The oven is possibly over 60 years old and only cooks the bottom of food. There is an air fryer and an electric pan which kind of compensate. I will say be careful of the driveway which needs repairs if your driving a sedan, impossible to drive over without damaging the undercarriage and I would ask the owner to have the cleaner vacuum under the lounges please, they are very easy to move and dust mites are horrible! That said, its really a reasonable place for the price, with a few fixes it would be brilliant.

We had a great week at Imea Blue Black Head Beach, nice and close to the beach, lovely views of the ocean, nice and quiet and nice walks to shops and pub/clubs. The overall condition of the property is quite old, the flyscreens were all patched and very worn as were the sliding door to balcony and the outside BBQ was old and rusty so we didn't use that. Otherwise the unit was fitted out well with all essentials for the kitchen etc. Will definitely be back again.

Its an absolutely great location, nice feel, but probably but needs some basic upgrades like air conditioning, dishwasher, a new stove, wifi/netflix access etc for families. I'd pay more to stay with some of those additions. Otherwise go in with low expectations and you'll love it.

The location of this house is what has drawn us back to Black Head for a second time. We love being able to just have a short walk down the road to the rock pool and the beach. The view from the house is also a winner for us. It is a spacious and easy home to stay in.
The ocean views where magnificent and the property was very close to the beach.

A wonderfully comfortable town house in beautiful Black Head village. Ideal for 4 teens & myself. Couldn't have asked for a more comfortable, perfect spot. thanks
The property was fantastic. Beautifully located close to the beach. The views out to the ocean horizon were excellent. Very enjoyable experience. Highly recommended.
Nice house, well equipped and close to the beach and rock pool. Quiet place to detox and unwind from the big city. Plenty of space to spread out. The place will need some maintenance soon, but serves well as a 'beach house'.
One comment: Would have been nice to have a few basics supplied, there was no toilet paper, dishwashing liquid or even basic pantry items (salt, pepper, sugar) but maybe this was a Covid thing. So a trip to the local shops. Also wifi would be helpful, as the local phone reception is quite poor.
We thoroughly enjoyed the space in this house but were alarmed by the power point that was hanging off the wall in the second bedroom,the front fly screen that was off its’ hinges and the light switch at the front door that twice gave a shock to family members. One blind couldnt be raised, making the bedroom unnecessarily dark. This house needs a lot of maintenance to make it safe. The beds were all comfortable and we appreciated having a washing machine and dryer available as we were in constant rain. The rock pool was a great bonus for us all. We had a great view of the beach and could walk everywhere. The agent was always available and helpful.
