Waurra A Cosy Moana Beach Getaway

The location of the house was great. A 5 minute walk to the beach. Drive on beach 10 minutes drive. Nice cafe down the road. The kitchen could have been better stocked, a big pot for pasta, a larger pan. A bit more cutlery.Also the house could have been cleaner. Overall great stay and lovely house for a small family.
