Great place to stay. Clean and modern
Great holiday home to stay. Clean and modern and roomy for what we needed. Only issue which wasn’t really a big issue was house was a different colour ( recently painted) and no name sign so we struggled to find it. New sign coming apparently so no doubt next visitors will have no issues. Thanks again it was excellent. Pete C

We were very impressed with the house. Was large enough for the whole family. 8 adults kids 12yr, 8yr and a 2yr old. It had everything you needed in the kitchen. Filtered water. It was clean on arrival. The host was good with communication and the property managers was also very nice and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay and would book again

Just for your information, your listing and documentation sent to us said it slept 12 but in your email to me it said it's slept 11, I think maybe your should adjust your listing with the correct number of occupants.

Right from the first initial contact with Anne, to the end, could not do enough for us to make sure our stay was perfect. The house was perfectly clean, had all you could possibly need and the location in the middle of the island was perfect for our day trips. Will definitely stay at Banksia again.
