Good value
We enjoyed our stay at Copa Beachside but did encounter a few issues with a couple of things. We found it well equipped but a couple of things were not in good repair and we needed to fix them to be able to use them.

Response from VrboOwner on 3 April 2020
Dear Penny, Thank you very much for taking the time and submitting a rating. I know you reported a broken lock on your arrival which according to your email was ok for you not to get fixed during your stay. That was the only thing you reported - but reading your review there seemed to have been more maintenance issues you were confronted with which we were not aware of. I am very sorry to hear that as of course we want our tenants to enjoy their stay and not to repair anything before they can use it. We have maintenance staff employed for these things. Can you please send an email to jess@copacabanapropertymanagement.com.au and advise what needed to be repaired by you and we are happy to reimburse you for this. Thank you very much! Warmest regards, Jess
Brilliant place- everything you need and more plus dog loved the beaches. Can’t imagine anything worse you’d need for a few days, so much space and so many walks was perfect
we booked again for next year, the location and feel of the whole house is just perfect. the outhouse allows everyone to have their space, well-stocked kitchen, access to boards, great outdoor area. the only thing i would say is the photo's need updating as they do not do the house justice.
What a wonderful property right in the heart of Copacabana and a short walk away from the beach. This was a family getaway with 7 adults and 2 small children and 2 small dogs. The property was so well designed to provide good space and comfort for all. The layout of the property was perfect, the outdoor dining and garden was very pleasant and we especially loved the parents retreat outback which gave everyone there own space if needed. The property was very well equipped but as advised by other reviewers we took extra dishwasher tablets and toilet paper. I would highly recommend this property for a family gathering.
Great property for a large family or friends to get together. Very spacious and in an awesome location. Everything we needed was provided including towels and linen.
We had a wonderful visit over the Australia Day long weekend. The house is thoughtfully equipped if you wish to cater yourself as well as walking distance to the small selection of shops in Copa. Our pup especially enjoyed the close proximity to the dog friendly lagoon.
We loved our stay with five adults and five children. There was plenty of space for everyone. Kitchen is well appointed with everything you could possibly need, like home away from home. Outdoor decking at the back was invaluable as it rained. Hopefully will return sometime in the future.
This is a great property for the whole family. We had 7 adults, a baby, a toddler and 3 dogs and there was room for all of us comfortably. A minutes walk to feed the ducks on the lake and 3 minutes walk to the pet friendly beach. Highly recommended for families with furry friends. Great communication with the owner and friendly neighbours who lent us candles and a torch in the wild weather blackout.
The house was perfect and we all had a great time together with our fur baby grand children (our dogs) celebrating 26th, 32nd and 35th wedding anniversaries. It is spacious, has a lovely atmosphere with great decor and suitable dining chairs to sit in when still a little bit damp from a swim.
Jess was a lovely host and was super efficient. Her responses to our questions were immediate. Thank you Jess, we are already planning our next stay.
We booked the house for our extended family reunion and it was just perfect. We used the paddle boards to explore the lagoon near by and saw plenty of birds and fish. The house is well vented that we didn't have to turn on the air conditioning. The kitchen is well equipped as well. We absolutely loved our time at Copa beachside. We will definitely be back.
Thank you Jess for responding to my after-hour SMS, as well as a prompt refund of the security deposit.

AMAZING WELL-EQUIPPED HOUSE HIGHLY RECOMMEND
We loved our stay - 2 families, 2 dogs. Had a beyond wonderful time, beautiful rooms, plenty of room for all of us.
The kitchen is the MOST well-equipped kitchen we have every holidayed at. All sorts of games are available if weather is poor.
The backyard looks like a scene out of Bali - so lush and beautiful.
The self-contained unit out the back is amazing.
There are soooo many beds in this house.... then they've each got a mattress under each bed!
Short stroll to dog-friendly lagoon, turn left to Copa flags, turn right to McMasters Flags.
Tame ducks come to the door each day for a feed.
Completely forgot to write in the beautiful, rustic guest book. Obviously people revisit this beautiful house, going by the guest book.
We will be going back for sure! Thanks to Jess for your communication at the office.

Enjoyable Schoolies
We stayed as a group of 10 for our end of school trip, and I'm glad to say that it was overall an excellent experience! We all had a great time- Copacabana is a beautiful place and the property is well situated. Jess, the property manager, was contactable at all times and made sure any problems were fixed immediately, which gave us peace of mind and a comfortable stay.
You need to be aware of some things though- basics like toilet paper, dishwasher tablets, salt/pepper and wipes/tissues/paper towels are minimal and we had to restock these things ourselves. Some of the crockery/utensils weren't in the cleanest condition (although we just chucked them in the dishwasher which wasn't a problem) and the couch was sandy.
Overall, it was an excellent stay still and I would highly recommend Copa Beachside! Thank you for having us!

Great property Excellent location
House is excellent for sleeping a few families. Beds comfortable and linen supply option we took advantage of was good, crisp and clean. Kitchen needs a bit of an overhaul and a really good clean. The lounge area is smallish for such a large group if the weather is not good but that was not a problem for us. Great weather, great games and books and a lovely outdoor area at the back. The studio was a blessing for my daughters family with 4 month old twins. this enabled them to relax and not worry about impacting on everyone else and their rest. Close enough to walk to everything. Would definitely recommend.

Many thanks for your comments - this might be a little late but I remembered your comments about the kitchen. We are now actually replacing the kitchen in April/May 2016. I agree entirely that it needs an overhaul and it's amazing how quickly time passes and suddenly you think - oh yuk! OK it function quite well - but it's time! Kind regards Julie Byrnes, Copa Beachside.

It was okay
Excellent location, size of house was fantastic and allowed 3 couples plenty of space to move around. Some areas of the house had not been cleaned well (oven, pantry, entrance glass doors, front and back). The house heated up well however, if you stay in the studio there is only an oil heater as the main air conditioner did not work. Only blankets are provided - just a "heads up" if you plan to stay in winter as you may prefer to take your Doona. Otherwise, the house provides all you could possibly want for a weekend away. We would like to come back again and have provided our feedback to the managing agent.

Dear Sue, Thank you very much for your feedback, which we really do appreciate. The timing of your stay was just prior to the regular spring clean which covers all the areas (and much more) you mentioned. Please be assured that all comments, observations or suggestions are taken as an opportunity to improve as we would like to see clients coming back in the future.

Great Place!
Copa Beachside was a fantastic place my friends and I were able to stay and relax. It was in close proximity to two patrolled beaches, many shops and restaurants, and a national park with scenic lookouts. The property exceeded our expectations especially with the fully equipped kitchen and many amenities which were provided. Copacabana Property Management provided great service and booking was very convenient. The property allowed a very enjoyable stay in the area!

Fantastic family friendly property!
We have just returned from a wonderful family holiday at Copa Beachside. This property has everything you could ever ask for in a holiday rental. The beach, lagoon and shops are only a short stroll away, the kitchen is fully equipped and the house is very child friendly. The self contained studio provided a quiet retreat for the grandparents and the lagoon across the road was a huge hit with the kids. We can't wait to come back!

The whole experience at Copa Beachside was amazing. Such a great property with everything you need for a wonderfully relaxing family holiday. We loved the beachy, funky decor, whilst still keeping a modern and immaculately clean appearance. The garden area/bbq/outdoor shower were fantastic for relaxing after a day at the beach. We will definitely be back next year! Thank you!!
