What a fantastic home!!
It worked perfectly for a family reunion for my Dad’s 89th birthday. It was evan better than the photos. All the bathrooms and separate areas worked well for the different families. Would thoroughly recommend this place to holiday in.

Not received as it promised
We found the property not cleaned properly. There were food rotting inside pantry cupboards and sun lounge cusions were infested with ants and wasn't touched to clean for a long time. Didn't have internet as promised and was fixed only on the day we left and found out there was a broken modem. Toiletries weren't enough for 4 days. In each bathroom there was only one tiny tube if soap and shampoo left for the whole time for 2 people. Toilet rolls weren't enough too Had to get in touch with Verve more than 10 times during the 4 days we stayed because of different problems. Also didn't even have a proper cocking utensils. We had to call and tell them to bring new frying pans atleast to fry an egg. Coolers weren't working in some rooms. Overall we weren't satisfied at all for what we got for the price we paid Asked for a refund and still it has not happened or had any response to it. Very dissatisfied customer.

Great place to have a family reunion, would have been better in the warmer months because the solar heating is useless in the cooler weather.

House in dirty condition, safety issues around the swimming pool/house, extra unnecessary fees
The issues we had with the property are ridiculous. The steps inside the swimming pool were razor sharp and caused 2 of the children to cut themselves. Luckily, we noticed the issue and avoided getting close to the steps. This was obviously not ideal and caused some to avoid the pool altogether. Also, the balustrade on the third level of the outdoor stairwell was missing a vertical rod/ bar. Once again these are serious safety hazards and should have been fixed prior to taking any new bookings. We noticed all the bed cushions placed on beds were dirty and had stains, around every bed there was layers of dust that had never been vacuumed. In the case of the BBQ, we did not use it during our stay. It was greasy, filthy and dirty when we opened it, hence why we decided to avoid this altogether. In each shower only one small tube of shampoo and conditioner was provided. A bottle of soap was in each washing basin with only 20% of soap left. One roll of toilet paper was provided in each toilet for a four-night stay. My guests and I are extremely disappointed with the experience we have had renting your property. Based on the reviews on homeway show other guests seem to have also experienced issues with your property. Coincidently the beginning of that review was also related to parts for the house not being cleaned properly. I recommend any future guests to take photographic or video evidence before and after entering the property.

Perfect gem for celebration
This is an outstanding property with a nice swimming pool, a billiard table, and a built-in look out which is a favorite for most guests. The interior design is excellent, plenty of equipment to use. Very clean. The owner was very friendly and helpful; delivered an extra bed at request; and because it was available, we were granted early check-in and later check-out... thank you! If I must say something less favorable, that may be the double beds which we, the spoiled people who are used to King size bed, find a bit small. Many thanks for offering the place.

Bigger than it looks!
Large and lovely home, perfect for groups and families. Far bigger than it looks in pictures with three living areas, three decks and a separate pool area we had enough space to hang out, and do our own thing. Great entertainment with TV's in most rooms and the living areas, lots of cool air conditioning, a beautiful large pool which got a thorough use on a 38 degree day, a pool table and big entertainer kitchen(s!) All we needed and more, we hope to return again next year.

So many good points!
There are so many good points to this property that it was hard to capture all I had to say. Suffice to say that we were stoked with the property and all its appointments: pool, billiard table, multiple tvs, telescope - all of which were utilised. Easy walk to beach. Overall a very easy booking process for such a wonderful home.

Stunning property, suitable for big groups.
A group of 20+ spent a weekend at the house, we absolutely loved it. House is spacious, clean, well taken care of and perfect for a group getaway. Close to beach, shops, but in a quiet area. Stunning property, suitable for big groups, felt very much like home.

The property was amazing with lots of space!
Great view, also the convenience of group / families staying together and having privacy when required. The booking process was very smooth, clear detailed communication before visit and timely response for any queries. We could not use pool as not heated, but there is enough apart from the pool to spend a few days. Perfect place for large groups. Highly recommended.
