We had a fantastic stay for our weekend away. The property was clean, comfortable, spacious and had everything we needed for a great group weekend. It was exactly as advertised and made the whole trip really easy.A big thank you to Colleen for being a great host and making everything so straightforward. We’d happily stay again and definitely recommend the property to others.
We loved our stay; perfect for families with busy toddlers! Colleen was fantastic to deal with, super accomodating and easy to reach. The house was clean and well equipped.
Amazing property that meets expectations from listing. Lots of space and everything you need for a great weekend away. The only thing that might have improved our experience was access to another fridge.
Fantastic property and very family friendly. Property manager was amazing with communication and helping us out with specific needs we had. Highly recommend and will definitely be back

Hi Calvin,
Thank you for you lovely review, we love families being able to spend time together. You were a pleasure to deal with.
Beautiful property to entertain all ages. Private and secluded but close to everything that you need. Couldn’t recommend more and caters for large groups with any mobility.

Hi Rochelle,
You were a pleasure to deal with. Thank you!
Having stayed at this property 3 times now, it is always such a pleasure to enjoy the amenities - the putting green, the hot tub, the cinema room and the latest addition of the BBQ area. We had everything we could want and more and Colleen was a pleasure to deal with during the booking process and in the lead up to our stay. Could not recommend this place more for groups who are interested in maximum comfort and plenty of space.

Hi Paul,
As always it is a pleasure to have you all stay!
We had a fantastic stay at this property for a golf weekend for a group of golfers. Bedding arrangements were perfect and the communication with Colleen was outstanding. Pizza oven and putting green were also put to good use, would definitely look to stay again.
This place is the best! It's in a beautiful part of Rye, close to the back beach - so gorgeous in winter! We were blessed with wonderful weather and enjoyed walks, mini golf and spa sessions in the back yard, and movies in the indoor theatre! Colleen is a fabulous host and made all arrangements so easy for us. The house easily accommodated us all (10 adults & 3 children) with numerous big gathering areas and we wanted for nothing! We loved our stay here - thank you Colleen!
Great facilities, fully equipped kitchen, there was nothing missing. Pizza oven was a hit, the putting tee was well used. We would have loved to stay longer so we had time to sit in the theatre room and watch a film.
Highly recommended for groups or families. We will be booking again.
Kitchen very well supplied with glassware, crockery and equipment.
We very much appreciated the midday check out as did not need to rush the way we usually do.
We had 8 adults and 6 children stay at this property. We were all very comfortable and loved spending time with each other at this house. The outside areas were amazing for our 6 grandkids who were all 5 and under.
We highly recommend staying here. The host was responsive, friendly and exceptionally helpful.

Hi Debra,
Sorry it has taken so long to get back to you but we have been busy trying to get all out renovations tidy! We know how important family is ... that's why we have tried to make the house as family oriented as we can. You were a pleasure to deal with.
We had a great stay at this house. Colleen was the very responsive and helped us out for whatever we needed. The space was larger than the photos looked and the backyard areas was great for all our kids, that were 5 and under. Felt like we were every secluded but only a short drive to beach, shops and golf. We will be booking here again when we head back to Rye.

Hi Kerrie, Thank you! We have been very lucky to have such lovely people stay at our home. Your group really did go above and beyond what needed to be done!!!
Well laid out, spacious house for a group of people looking for a get away. Little putting green, kids cubby slide & swing, BBQ, woodfire pizza oven and hot tub - it offers something for all ages. Colleen was easy to deal with, clear in her communication and very responsive. Wouldn't hesitate to go this house again if heading back to Rye.
The communication from the owners was 5⭐️.
So much space and options for everyone aged 2-73. Kitchen was well equiped with everything you could need from pots, platters, serving boards, heaps of crockery and glass options.
The cubby house and playground was a hit as was the putting green.
Unfortunately the jacuzzi had issues from the previous guest. The owners even drove from Melbourne when we couldn’t get the spa working. Parts had been ordered to fix the spa but unfortunately not during our stay. Quite a few of the jets didn’t work. The inside spa jets also didn’t work which the little girls were looking forward too.
Like all things there are a few things which are a bit tired eg the recliners in the cinema room. But all in all we had a fabulous time and would HIGHLY recommend the property and hope to return.

Thank you for you lovely review Simone, it was a pleasure to have you.
Unfortunately trying to get parts for the outdoor spa has been a challenge - as everything is at this time. We are in the process of replacing all the jets so we don't have issues with any of them. In regards to the indoor corner bath, we only advertise it as a corner bath as the pump was blown up 3 times in a month from misuse. With the price of pumps it was not worth having a spa bath inside. We are however in the process of revamping a number of things on the property over August, including the main bathroom. The corner bath is being replaced with a free standing bath.
Again thank you, we are so pleased you had a fab time even with the spa jets not all fully functioning.
Would definitely welcome you back anytime.

Lovely property, poor service
We stayed in this property 2 weeks ago and I am still waiting for my bond to be returned. During our stay, there issues with their sewerage which meant we were mopping up 2 over flowing toilets and unable to use them for 12 hours. The owners were very difficult to contact and when we got through to them to report the problem, they advised us to wait until the morning when they would come and fix the issue. We were then left in a house which we paid good money to stay in with only 1 toilet/bathroom working between 12 people and the downstairs area, including 2 bedrooms smelling of faeces. Overall it wasn't the most pleasant stay and the fact that I now have to chase up my bond adds to an unsatisfactory weekend.

Firstly, I am very disappointed with the tenants concerned. The Tenants were given very early check in on the Friday and did not leave till late on the Sunday without extra charge. We had a phone call extremely late on the Saturday night, missed the call, but returned the call within the hour. They informed us they thought there was a blockage as the water was not draining. We were unable to get someone on site as it was late on a Saturday night, however had it attended to early next morning (Sunday) at around 8am. It was discovered that there were hand towels in the pipes, creating an extensive blocking the system, despite notices in every bathroom stating not to put any foreign objects in the systems. Our terms and conditions stipulate cost or charges can be withheld from the bond should there be damages caused by the tenant not following our guidelines and instructions. Not only were there hand towels blocking the pipes. there was more than the stipulated 12 people staying. This would explain the excessive water coming out of the system at the blockage. We have a strict person policy and explain to everyone due to the waste system we have, we do not cater for more than the allocated people . We are in a Wildcoast Reserve and houses in the area are under the same systems. There are occasions when the bond is withheld until a problem is dealt with and dispute our suspicions and our cleaners recommendations not to return the bond in full, we had returned the bond in full, some days before this review was written - within the guide-lines of our terms and conditions. The location is clearly on the website and we bought the property for its quiet location. We do not want to be know as a "Party House" We only wish we had a review system on tenants so we could avoid certain tenants. Overall unsatisfactory tenants that we would not invite back again.
Colleen was a pleasure to deal with and went above and beyond to meet our needs and ensure we had a relaxing time away. The house is large enough to comfortably fit three families with young kids and the kitchen is equipped with everything needed for large family meal times. The outdoor area including golf green and playground is very family friendly and kept the kids busy. Highly recommend!
Amazing - better than the photos! But above all the communication with Colleen was immaculate and we arrived at the property feeling well-informed and sure of how everything worked. Large kitchen and lounge, the cinema room was amazing, massive house for our small team and most of us even had our own room. Great location and a fantastic home, could not fault one bit - close all your tabs and just book this property! 10/10. Thank you Colleen for looking after us so well!
