We loved our stay. The property was fabulous, we especially appreciated the aircon over the 2 very hot days we were there. We came down to the island for a wedding and the host was kind enough to let us leave our dogs in the house while we were at the wedding so we knew they were safe. We had a minor issue with check in but the host was quick to respond and fixed the issue quickly. Would definitely stay here again.
A super nice home with 3 spacious bedrooms and a fantastic large family/entertainment room. A beautiful large outside area (although not covered against wind or rain, maybe some clear blinds would be nice) with a large table - ideal for groups. The kitchen is well equipped and has all facilities needed. The check-in was super easy. The only thing which needs urgent attention is the door to the bathroom. It is almost impossible to close it (it drags on the floor) and when attempting to close it the noise is horrible and wakes everyone up (if the toilet is needed during the night). We would have loved to stay longer and will definitely keep this place in mind for our next visit. Thanks!!!

Could not get hold of anyone host or customer service on the app, my booking dissapeared from the app , had to call and book a last minute motel room at 10pm after trying for hrs to contact host and thru the app. I dont want to give 1 stars for the property as from what i could tell was clean and what was advertised. I dobt blame host so much as more the stayz app is the worst app ever

Response from VrboOwner on 19 November 2025
Mark did not stay at our property despite his booking being active on our side. He was sent check in instructions via the Stayz/Vrbo app 2 days prior to check in. Mark did not wait hours at the property, he was responded to within 30minutes of us receiving a message that he had no check in details. He was given the key pin again straight away. Not a fair review by Mark given it was a system glitch not a host caused error. Disappointing.
This was wonderful accommodation set up to cater for families. It offers a large living space and large external deck. Good internet and a kitchen that was very well-equipped. Large deck for al fresco dinners and evening relaxation. Great shed. Very clean and tidy. The owner was quick and overall the experience was extremely enjoyable.
