10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Mar 2025
We had been attending a family reunion further North. In the past, we had stayed in several separate locations but being able to book a beautiful home in a beautiful locale that was able to accommodate 16 (yes.... 16) of us..... it simply ticked all the boxes. Ranging in age from 6 to 78 and with a bunch of younger and older teens, having the two houses separated by a very comfortable outdoor fire pit area just worked. With the large flat lawns, the estuary directly across the road, and boogie boards, paddle boards and kayaks on hand, the kids, young and old were kept occupied and nicely worn out. The property itself was incredibly beautiful, well provisioned and built for comfort. Lovely linen bedding and a kitchen with every conceivable mod con..... can't wait to go back.

Great spot with plenty of options either on the estuary or surrounding beaches. Nice separation and flow between the two houses allowing kids to hang out independently.Nice amenities and finish throughout with kayaks and paddle boards to make the most of high tide.

This accommodation was perfect for our four family holiday. There was plenty of space, plenty to do (walks, boating, snorkelling, SUPing, games...) and plenty of fun was had together. Thank you for sharing your space.

It was a perfect getaway with the family for Easter break! We had a wonderful time in such a beautiful home which had everything you need for a restful vacation! From home amenities to cleanliness to improvised activities at home then add the proximity to serene beach spots plus a very accommodating host Alex just made it a worthwhile and memorable place to stay! Just an amazing experience and highly recommend for group/family travel! Worth every single penny plus more! Will surely be back…thanks again for sharing your Amazingly Beautiful Home!
