Absolutely perfect!

Sunburst Retreat was the perfect getaway for my wife and I. The spa is in perfect working condition and the whole house is spotless and has everything you need. Plenty of room for a family too. Vera made the booking and check in process easy and I'd definitely recommend this property.

A pleasant experiencw all round!

This is hands down one of the best places we have stayed as a family. The place was immaculately clean, extremely comfortable and amazing views outside the windows. Our kids enjoyed the place very much and the town was the most friendliest towns we have visited. Everyone so nice and helpful We would definitely like to come back again.

Great house in pretty location.

Overall we had a lovely visit. House was a good size and very clean and well supplied for cooking and entertainment. The bread maker and bread flour was used and appreciated. The wood heater was great and plenty of wood available. We loved the spa although it took a long time to heat up. A couple of things to consider - I know it's winter, but the house was so cold when we arrived and for some time after, and wondered if possible to have heating on before arrival (if arrival time is known)? Also please check batteries in the remotes and perhaps have washing up gloves?
