For the price paid we were very surprised at how dated and tired the property is. As the description honestly says it is an old style bach but the smell of mold when you walk in and the standard of bathroom, walls and kitchen is not what you'd expect. The exterior is also tired and dated. The double bed is small and the mattress is old but the bed linen is nice. The accommodation guide that was left out references a tv and dishwasher but there is none. There was plenty of plates and glasses etc. If the price was lower then absolutely fine but with what else is avaliable I would say either a reno with a new bed and lick of paint or a price drop is needed.

This property is an old beach shack. The only bedroom is very small with a double bed. There are 2 single beds, one in the lounge room and the other open to the dining room. There is no TV and limited cooking facilities/equipment.

Great location

Great place which would benefit from some upgrades such as blinds - which either don’t work or do not block out sun and need a workable fry pan - it had no handle. Other non stick pans had pcb coating and should be tossed.
