We had a lovely stay with our pooch. Great secure yard and undercover outdoor area that was great for having friends stop in for lunch. Didnt have the best weather for the beach but the surroundings were relaxing and quiet and we could watch the new years fireworks from the beachfront. I didnt see the property before the renovations but everything was comfortable and well presented. :)

A great place to take a break

Maxine's shack is all you could want in a beach stay complete with the sound of crashing surf. By bringing your own linen and leaving the place clean you get a really affordable experience. Can recommend...

Great property and great location

This is a great little property with everything you need for a cosy stay, and it is just 2 minutes walk from the beach. Pros: Has everything you need for a comfortable stay Cons: It needs a few fixes minor fixes (a proper fix for the tape around ceiling vents/exhaust fans, and the door locks stick a bit (time for some graphite powder)). It could do with a decent clean (it was pretty good overall, just not spotless). You cant see the fenced back yard in the property pictures but it is off the back patio through a lockable gate and great for dogs. There is also another lockable gate from that small yard to the front yard, so great for access. Overall a great spot and would recommend.
