well equipped, good location.the site was a bit misleading, perhaps a better way of describing the bunk beds would be better, 4 singles 2 up 2 down, rather than 4 bunk beds - we expected a bigger room or a crowded room with 4 pairs of bunks. it made no difference to our stay.

Great beach bach

We loved our stay, thank you. Was very tidy on arrival. Had everything we needed. Great location. Outdoor area big enough for gazebo. Very spacious for a beach bach. Thanks for having us. We’d love to stay again next year.

Absolutely the best guests ever! This lady not only washed sheets and towels but also hung on the line and vacuumed too!! Communication was great, she let me know the fishing rods weren't there, a previous guest had taken them. Place was so clean and tidy, I highly recommend to other hosts. I look forward to hosting again. Bless you Kylee, you are a treasure

A cute little beach house, very close to neightbours.

An older style property. Nice to be back in the 60's. I'm not sure how it would be when the neighbours all move in. However it was an enjoyable weekend. Thank you.
