We had a lovely time at Magnetic Dreams (Unit 1). The deck next to the pool was very relaxing! Unit was clean and comfy - no aircon in second bedroom but wasn't a real problem for this time of year. Would stay here again.
This property could not have been more lovely and Cindy could not have been more helpful!
Thanks :)

Ideal holiday house
Loved the kitchen windows opening onto the deck. Cleanliness not 100 percent and ants problematic. The electric jug and frying pan need to be thrown out.
