Beautiful and clean, also had lots of towels and only saw the host once accidently in passing. Wasn't bothered by host through messages or presence. Had sky sport which was a huge bonus
Great location, spacious and well maintained property right on the water. Having linen made such a difference to luggage/laundry.Everything we needed for a comfortable stay
We had to find temporary accommodation while house repairs were being done, and we were so lucky to find Craig and Megan with their pristine bach.
While we weren't on holiday and still had work and school drop offs, we couldn't have picked a more suitable residence. The bach has literally everything you need and more.
From USB wall outlets, to blazingly fast WiFi speeds, and super comfortable beds we felt right at home. While also being able to wake up to incredible ocean views that made you think maybe there really is a God, right on our doorstep too!
We had our own privacy right from day one. Craig and Megan would periodically text us making sure everything was perfect for our stay. 10/10 hosts.
If you're gonna book a bach, book this one. Be it for a holiday kayaking on the ocean, or a working holiday to escape the city. It's worth every penny.
Property was above our expectation thanks.
Host was friendly and showed interest in our stay and made us feel at home.
Quiet retreat well worth it.
Thanks
Absolutely loved staying here. Short walk over the road to the beach. Really appreciated the Easter eggs and all the other snacks left for me. Host was very welcoming and helpful. Will definitely stay again.
Location great, cleanliness great, provisions great, access great, nothing about the property could be faulted. Property owner was well prepared and friendly when we arrived, communication before arrival was excellent.
The only (very very minor) request for improvement would be a light on the sign on the road, we returned at night and struggled to locate the entrance confidently in the dark. Noting this did not detract from the stay in the slightest.
