Great location plenty of parking space
Good quiet location with plenty of parking for the cars close to the beach. We did find lots of mouse poo in one of the cupboards but once we cleaned the cupboard it didn’t come back so probably no mice in the premises now.

Family Catch Up at the Beach
The clean well maintained property suited our family group of grandparents, parents and children without being on top of each other. The spa was a big hit for young and old.
Access via stairs maybe not so good for the elderly with mobility issues and lack of wi-fi was a disappointment for the kids. Overall excellent.

Fingal Bay Getaway
Great house for a family vacation. Well layed out, very neat and clean. Peaceful area, lovely views and close walk to Fingal Bay. Spa bath in the backyard was a hit, especially with teenagers. The only issue was the room downstairs, it was a little musty and could use a screen door but other than that we were very happy with the house and our stay.

Great holiday house for a summer get-away
House has a good floor plan and offers ample space for two families. The interior is new and clean. Nice, spacious back yard to relax after a morning at the beach. The spa is a bonus, however the temperature was set too hot and we couldn't locate a manual to check how to adjust it.
Location is great - 4 mins stroll to the local cafe and 8 to the beach (with young kids in tow). Would definitely book again.

Great 3 bedder
Upstairs was lovely, easy flow into outdoor entertainment area and the kids loved the hot tube. Downstairs rom was less than expected. Not only was it stifling hot, the bathroom was still in 1970s condition complete with dingy broken light, mould and a few dead cockroaches. Very disappointed with this. It needs to be renovated with air conditioning or not offered as an ensuite room.

Family holiday 2021
Internally the house was spacious and reasonably well maintained ,the kitchen needs sorting out one saucepan and one of the frying pans need throwing out ,10-12 people need at least 12 plates and 12 cereal bowls , the washing machine rubber needs replacing or cleaning as the door is very hard to open ,
The downstairs room which my wife and i both in our seventies stayed needed 20 minutes of painting the peeling pint and nail hole to show the owner cared ,a second side table is needed ,nothing fancy on the other side of the bed and the base of the gyprock in the bathroom needed replacing .
The fan needed replacing in the children’s bedroom as the broken fan blade was in the garage , there were a couple of fly screens needed replacing , the patio was good and we used the BBQ several times the Hot Tub was well used by all because we brought a 3m cover to go over the top otherwise with the not sun coming down we would not have used it ,i can send photo of the side cover if you like .The top level of garden needs some TLC lawns uncut, the front of house plants also are overgrown and unkept .the trolley for the beach was great and used daily .TV ,s worked but WIFI is a must in this day and age .
Don’t get us wrong we had a great time , the beds were comfortable and towels upstairs were new ,pity our towels down stairs were old and not good ,
Our two son-in-law’s who are handy around their homes estimate approx $500 to fix most of the issues.
