First time on K'Gari (Fraser Island)

The house is just beautiful, we really enjoyed our stay here. It was one of the nicest and cleanest Airbnb/rentals we've stayed in. Easy booking process, communications with the host were easy and reliable. All round a great experience, thank you!

Great Fraser Island stay

We had a great time staying in Marks property. The house was perfectly set up and a great space. It isn’t exactly walking distance to Kingfisher Bay as there is a very steep climb and the walk takes around 10-15 minutes, but if you speak to the resort reception you can take the courtesy bus.

A great place to stay for two families who were exploring the island 4WDing. An easy drive to all our favourite lakes and sites. Easy walk down the hill to the resort and a courtesy bus back up. House is well set up with everything you need for the week. Good size fridge, freezer and stove. Big bbq on the deck. Outdoor table to fit everyone comfortably. The house sits atop the hill. No AC is not an issue (October). Big louvres throughout the house allows for great airflow and cooling. Ceiling fans are also in the bedrooms. Kitchen has good bench space, coffee machine (Aldi K Pods), microwave and dishwasher. Plenty of pots, pans, cups, plates etc. Owner was fantastic to deal with. Very responsive. Thanks for a great stay.

Location was great and property was clean and kitchen was well equipped. However, weather was very humid therefore, it needed aircon or at least fans in kitchen, family and deck areas. Hand wash was not provided in one of the bathrooms and No lock for upstairs bathroom.

50th birthday celebration!

Had the most wonderful week with my family for my 50th. There were 3 families in total and the house suited us perfectly. It had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable.We would be out for most of the day exploring the other side of the island but when we did have a rest day it was great that we could use the resort facilities. It was a short drive down the road or you could walk if you dont mind hills or have no children. The only suggestion I would make would be to put locks on the bathroom doors.Thanks again Mark for sharing your beautiful home!Michelle

Great Location

The house is fantastic and set in a beautiful location. Beds were comfortable and bathrooms were good. Communication with the owner was great. The cleanliness of the house was however extremely poor. Bathrooms, floors, windows, the deck and the kitchen were all dirty. We left the house cleaner than when we arrived. Considering the cost, we expected better.

good not great.

a house able to sleep 10 people should have a dishwasher! This is a big fail. Also no fans or aircon means hot days are hotter than they should be. BBQ on deck ran out of gas after one use so this obviously wasn't checked and filled for our stay. All the utensils plates cups were dirty and we had to wash them b4 using. Nothing in the way of extra blankets or pillow etc. Overall it was basic. Could find better value for money elsewhere. Too expensive all things considered.

House has a dishwasher and the bbq has continuous gas supply. Every room has fans and Louvers and you don’t require Air conditioning. I have replaced plates and make sure the cleaner looks over the plates to make sure they are clean from previous stay. Thank you Mark

Well below expectations

The property had a nice views of trees, on the other side of the road from the spectacular ocean views, set 15 minutes walk from the resort down (and then up) a steep hill. The beds were all good but the kitchen was very poorly set up with only 7 plates (some chipped) and 7 bowls for a house of 10. Pots and pans were old, falling apart and mostly unusable. Set top box on downstairs tv was broken and DVD player would not work - so the kids tv area wasn't used. The speaker for playing music was was also broken, as well as the flick mixer on the downstairs bathroom. The communications with the owner was patchy, with issues being disputed, rather than resolved. Overall, the property had potential if it was better cared for and some money spent on basics, but unfortunately in its current state it doesn’t represent decent value for money.

Beautiful House but unclean and run down

This was the second time we had stayed at Kingfisher Heights but in two different houses. We had high expectations based on the pictures of the house and our first stay. With the experience I have in the travel & tourism industry, I am used to reviewing properties. Unfortunately, Sandy Escape did not meet expectations. The following were the main issues: - The property was quite unclean with piles of dirt left in the downstairs bathroom. - We advised there would be 10 adults staying but were only provided with 7 bath towels, even though information states bath towels are provided for all guests. - Only 2 burners on the 6 burner stove work. - The ice or cold water dispenser in the fridge did not work. - The media/tv room on the first floor was very dirty with stains on the couch and the blinds unable to be used due to being damaged. - All floors were very dirty. There is a broom but no dustpan and brush to be able to sweep up the sand/dirt. - Although hand soap containers were in both bathrooms and kitchen, they were empty and we needed to buy soap for them. - No dishwashing liquid was provided to be able to wash dishes. - They do provide dishwasher tablets for the 1 drawer dishwasher. - Not enough plates or cutlery for 10 adults. We were very disappointed with the state of the property and felt that it was a long way from being value for money. We would not be able to recommend this property. It is way overpriced for how it presents presently.

Could not recommend this property at present.

Nice home but attention to cleanliness needs a lot of work. Windows dirty Pillows very stained, Sheets on King bed stained with bleach. Dead flys in all window and door tracks. Bedroom door didn't close so banged all night. think owner needs to visit more often if they want top dollar.

Fraser Island is not a 6 star resort and the house was very clean and equipped. All reviews on other sites and this one have 5 stars rating always and the linen is always dry cleaned. You are type of person who will always give a bad review because you were looking for a discount. Please owners be aware

Great holiday house

The house is conveniently located within Kingfisher Bay Resort. The owner is responsive and only a phone call / text away. The house fit our travel group of eight perfectly (four adults and four kids aged 2-5). The indoor fireplace was a lovely touch for cool winter evenings. We had a great time and would definitely consider staying in this property again.
