The property was lovely and clean. We had a very enjoyable and relaxing long weekend. It is in a very quiet neighbourhood but still close to the shops in town and a short drive to the beach and great walking trails. Also wineries and restaurants are not too far away.
Check in process was incredibly easy, and we were also able to check in early on the day of our arrival which was a really nice bonus.
The directions were simple to follow and the house was easy to find.
The house was clean, modern, and well appointed. The beds were very comfy and the bathroom was modern and worked well. The 2nd bathroom is actually detatched from the house, however this was not a problem at all for us. The detatched bathroom was also nice.
The garden and deck was really nice and got a lot of sunlight. We enjoyed having our coffee out there.
We found it good for our group with enough living space for all of us to be comfortable.
Overall we really enjoyed our stay.

Thanks for your 5-star review David, we appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with us. We are thrilled that you and your guests had a great time at Sorrento Ocean Sounds and were happy with our services! It is a comfortable, well-appointed home surrounded by peaceful, private coastal gardens. The large outdoor deck is perfect to enjoy coffee in the sunshine or alfresco dining under the trees. We hope to welcome you back for another enjoyable stay in the future! Best regards, the Coast and Country Getaways team
Das von Bäumen umgebene, grosse Haus liegt in einer sehr ruhigen Gegend. Zum Lieblings kleinen General Store ist es ein 5-Miniten-Spaziergang. Da treffen sich die Einheimischen zum Kaffe und man kriegt alles, für ein gutes Frühstück. Der Garten ist gross und die Schönen Bäume spenden den ganzen Tag Schatten. Die Kũche hat alles, was nötig ist, allerdings ist da die Sauberkeit in den Schränken nicht oberste Priorität. Die Waschmaschine ist sehr in die Jahre gekommen und funktioniert nicht ohne Unterstutzung von aussen. Wer seine Wäsche sauber was hen will, sollte in einen Waschsalon gehen damit. Auch das hinter dem Haus gesammelte Sperrgut dürfte entsorgt werden.Alles in allem wūrden wir das Haus jedoch wieder mieten, da es gute Vibes hat und den ganzen Tag lichtdurchflutet ist. Auch die Nähe zum Strand ist schön, man direkt vom Haus aus einen ausgiebigen Spaziergang machen. Im Zentrum von Sorrento findet man neben kleinen Restaurants auch viele kleine Läden, Kaffees und Boutiquen.
