We had one of our most relaxing holidays ever. Enjoyed fishing for crabs & the quiet location. Felt remote yet only a 5 minute drive into Ardrossan. Retro beach house with everything you need.

The location was great. Overall the place was clean except for coffee machine that had green allergy growing in water container. The only other comment, the mattress was not comfortable and both of us woke up with bad backs.

Dream View is a Dream View
As we have family close to this location we had planned to catch up and spend some time together. Dream View was ideal and we could not have been happier with the accommodation. We all had a very enjoyable time and the sunrises and sunsets from the back verandah were wonderful. It was just lovely sitting on the verandah and enjoying the view and watching the waves roll in. Dream View had all we needed for meal preparation in the kitchen, it really is a great little place and the damage bond was refunded within the seven business days as advised.

Beautiful view but the cleanliness of the property left a lot to be desired
We were looking for a spectacular view and we definitely found that at Dream View. Having said that the cleanliness of the property left a lot to be desired. Considering part of the fee is charged as a cleaning fee it was quite obvious that not a lot of cleaning had been done, including black mould in bathroom.

Three sisters getaway
Views from the deck were absolutely amazing. Surrounds were absolutely peaceful day and night. House and furniture adequately fitted out. Bedding comfortable. Whole deck area needs a deep clean, lots and lots of cobwebs everywhere. Couldn't reach the switch to put on the fairy lights. Bathroom needs a deep clean. BBQ had months/years of grease and time, we couldn't use it.

Relaxation to the maximum
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A lovely quiet location in James Well. The house is small and compact, perfect for the 2 of us but can also sleep up to 6 people.We had perfect weather to sit outside and enjoy the view from the balcony. A small complaint, is it would have been nice for the outdoor table and chairs to be clean, we did have do do this ourselves before using them. We would definitely stay again in the future.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our second stay at Dream View within three months was as enjoyable as the first time. We could relax and enjoy the view from inside when it was too cold to sit outside.The property was clean, the air conditioning worked well and we were comfortable. We spent one day exploring the peninsula and have now eaten at most of Ardrossan’s cafes. We can recommend the property and the management.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: With this property you get what you pay for. The whole place needs a renovation. We arrived to a big cob web in the kitchen and dirty water left in the sink, chairs turns over on the ground outside in weird positions. We followed the instructions for the aircons however the ones in the individual rooms do not work. This place could be amazing with some love and care and could be a good investment If executed right...overal nice view this was more just a place to sleep at night so it did the job.

Reviewer Comments: This property was pretty much exactly what we hoped for - the only negative was the queen bed, very creaky and not very comfortable (we have an ikea bed at home that is much more comfortable).The views and quietness though, top notch.Id give it 5 stars if the bed was comfortable

Dream View- a perfect name
Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had an excellent time, enjoying the beautiful view whilst relaxing on the deck reading or dining. From the living area the view could still be enjoyed. The house was comfortable but still had a nice beach shack feel about it. It was lovely to walk on the beach watching the tide coming in, and to see the beautiful sunrise over the sea. James Well is a good place from which to take leisurely day trips on Yorke Peninsula. The property description was accurate and the property clean. We can highly recommend this rental.
