It is common in the region for some linen to be provided for bookings, and some linen to be available as an optional extra. By default, a booking at this home does not include optional linen (top & bottom sheets, bath towels and pillowcases). What is included are doonas (quilts) with covers, pillows without covers, tea towels, hand towels and bathmats. If you would like the optional linen included in your booking, please let us know, including which beds you would like it provided for. The additional cost would be a one-off charge of $30 per bed (some sites add a service fee to these costs) - and we prefer 7 days' notice prior to your arrival to get that arranged.

It was ok
Over all we had a great time nice and close to beach but a few things that I did notice wasHouse not very cleanDust cobwebs dead moths and rubbish under beds.No oven trays.Washing machine sounds like it’s going to die.Dryer wasn’t clean and would stop working.Air conditioner again not clean don’t think it’s ever been cleaned. And should be one down stairs tooNo locks on any of the toilets or bathroom doors. Curtains are see through no block out ones. Would have been a Nice place long ago. But not kept up with the little things. Shower heads need scrubbing and mould in shower needs to be re grouted. If you pay for cleaners I would be looking for new ones. I think all they did was try and make the beds cos they were not even made good. The games and toys in tv unit are broken or missing bits Tv isn’t a smart tv definitely should be this day and age.No air fryer BBQ absolutely disgusting

nice for what it was
Overall it was good but the blinds didn't block the westerly sun very well which flooded the whole living room with light and heat.
