Hi Bronwyn,
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback! We're really glad to hear the space and amenities were perfect for your stay.
We’re sorry to hear about the spa not being as clean as it should have been, that’s definitely not up to our usual standard. We will pass this onto our pool / spa cleaning team to ensure it’s properly addressed for future guests.
We truly appreciate you letting us know and hope we can welcome you back again soon for an even better experience
House was perfect for our family of 16, enough bedding & rooms. Outdoor areas were great, pool location with spa was perfect & because we had cold weather in summer the heated spa was well used. We did find that it could have been cleaner. However the host responded promptly to our concerns & we were happy with their response. Would come back again

Nice Location with great pool
Cleanliness can be better, not enough toilets and showers for 16 people, Air conditioning only in public areas downstairs makes rooms stuffy. Otherwise great pool and great kitchen and dinning areas.

We had a very wonderful stay. The house was very clean, beautiful kitchen and dining room and outdoor balcony looking over the pool and views.
The kids absolutely loved the solar heated pool which was perfect. The spa was nice too. We really like that the pool was attached to the house which made it easier to access and easier to keep an eye on the kids.
We also like that the house was cosy and safe and the arcade was great fun for the adults and kids. The location was quiet and only a few mins drive to the beach and shops. The utensils and kitchen was fully stocked and had everything we need, including a working coffee machine! The host was very responsive and detailed and we highly recommend this house to anyone wanting a clean, reasonably priced 6 bedroom house with a pool. Perfect for big families or groups.
