Marek
Great place to stay. Really nice house, very clean, with all the things you need. Super close to the boat ramp if fishing. Superb.
Anonymous review
A modern house with every thing we needed. We had hoped it would have a view of the sea, but were not disappointed by its proximity to the peninsular walkway.
Steve Little
Great house spoiled by holiday houses overcharging extra cleaning fee of $100 dollars and failing to remedy after multiple emails from us and owners to fix
