Our stay was great and memorable. The property is so very much true to the photos. There is so much sun light through the house, the views of the ocean are beautiful, it’s tastefully decorated, it accommodated us all (9 adults) quite comfortable, the kitchen was fully equipped with all that is needed for a great stay. However, the biggest tick for us all was the property’s cleanliness. Tina and Fran thank you so much for listing your beautiful property so others can enjoy it and we hope to return to your gorgeous property some day real soon.

Look for Properties Not Managed by Otway Retreats
We loved the look of this property and it read to meet all our needs [Linen Provided, reasonable rates]. Once you pay and are given access to the details of the property you learn that yes linen is provided but to have the beds made is an additional $61.28. It is a shame as the property has good features but Otway Retreats is only advertising through Stayz and you cannot contact them by phone, only by emails.
