Gerard sent us a detailed information on checking in and checking out. We all love the large spaces where we spent time talking and catching up with the rest of the family. A flock of kookaburras visited us on the back deck for a feed.Tim went kayaking on the lake early in the morning.

Relaxing home

Jacaranda is a lovely comfortable home which gave us space to have time together and apart! The 2 living rooms and the 4 bedrooms were spaced apart perfectly, giving us a more relaxing break. The lovely outside deck and lounge gave us another space to stretch out! Everything from the booking to arriving, settling in and checking out was so easy.

Great place to stay for family with kids of school ages. Full length of the house balcony with filtered views of Smith's lake and the ocean, 2 minutes walk to the lake.Fantastic covered outdoor lounge area. Best of all, upstairs and downstairs living areas and bedrooms meant that kids had their own space. As did us "adults" & our canine companion.Kitchen was well equipped and Webber bbq.Calling all holiday ental property owners, take a leaf out this owners book.Call me weird, but very often preparing food in a holiday rental kitchens is fraught with angst. I'm usually trying to chop and cut swathes of vegetables, meat, bread and fruit with a kitchen implement that has the cutting power of a butter brick. I can't call these knives, more lightly edged metal set squares. What should takes 20 seconds to chop, takes 10 minutes and your going at it like a lumberjack at a Timberfest. The result looks like you've tried to cut it with drill.But, at this property the knives had an edge that actually cut and it made it just that more enjoyable. It's amazing how these small things make the big things better.

Great vibe, had everything you wanted. Lovely clean house, whilst we stayed upstairs due to dogs not liking stairs, i have to say that down stairs looks amazing. It is very peaceful, the owner was fabulous. Would stay again. Loved it.

We found Jacaranda to be very clean and comfortable. It was great having another living area and 2 of the bedrooms downstairs. Plenty of room for the grandkids to spread out. Quiet and peaceful location. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The kookaburra visits were a bonus.

Relaxing & beautiful Smiths Lake home

We enjoyed a most relaxing & comfortable winter holiday at Jacaranda. The space is ideal was well suited to our teenage family, with 2 levels and entertainment areas, everyone had their own space to relax. The home is comfortable and well styled, with a lovely outlook through the trees, toward the lake.

Great location and house

Jacaranda Beach house is the perfect house for couples, families or a group with pets. In a great location so close to Smith’s Lake, the house is so spacious with separate living areas upstairs and downstairs and with balconies on both levels perfect for afternoon drinks and a BBQ. We will definitely be back.

Spectacular!!

Jacaranda Beach House exceeded our expectations in all areas. We had an amazing four days of relaxation and fun catching up with family (including our puppy) to celebrate two birthdays. The views are fabulous and the property is very well equipped. Having towels and bed linen supplied was a massive bonus for us as it meant we did not have that worry or hassle on arrival. Plenty of space with two lounge areas, two bathrooms and outdoor areas to chill out in. Gerard was always awesome and we would most definitely stay again.

Wonderful stay

We arrived to a beautifully located home with a picturesque view of the lake through tall gum trees. The house was as described and pictured, clean and well appointed. There was plenty of space to spread out and have your own restful timeout. We especially loved the upstairs deck area. Gerard was a great host with very clear communication and he kindly allowed us to have a late check-out so that we had time to pack up and fit in with the grandkids nap time. We would happily stay here again.
