This was our second stay here, took my family who is visiting from Europe, we stayed for 2 nights, wouldve loved to stay for few extra nights because it is so relaxing. We went crabbing off the jetty, so conveniently, the house has everything to cook them in, just perfect. My family absolutely loved this place, we had exceptional stay yet again. Can't wait to come back again!

We stayd here for our daughters Galentine's birthday, the teenagers had so much fun swimming, paddle boarding, sitting on the beach listening music and we can supervise them from the balcony. Had everything we needed, the tv didn't even get turned on as you spend most of the time outside anyway. The view is just stunning! We will definitely be back!

The view was spectacular. The air conditioning and fans were not effective so it was really hot and yucky (although it only reached 31 yesterday) so definitely something to keep in mind if staying in the really hot weather. But the view was magical.

Hidden Gem - Value for money

The property has a unique charm about it. Fantastic views overlooking the beach surrounded by natural coastal vegetation. One of the best-stocked holiday houses I have visited. Very clean and functional. Plenty of fans for cooling, and equipment for water sports and board games to keep you busy. Value for money and look forward to returning.
