Pros +
- the manager went above and beyond helping us find a mobile mechanic. She is a gem.
- Comfortable house and clean. Good location. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the tennis court.
- Lovely spacious 3 bedroom accommodation for our family of 5. Had everything we needed for our stay complete with well-equipped kitchen, washer and dryer, and even kids toys! Kids enjoyed the pool even though it was a bit chilly and not that big.Convenient location - walking distance to Bluey’s Beach shops and few minutes drive to beaches.
Cons -
- Smelled too strong of cleaning products. Location was far from the beach. Very generic accommodations.
- Washing machine was faulty, a lot of mozzies around, would be good if they are sprayed. Beach towels would have been appreciated.The common facilities such as kids room were rundown, full of old sticky toys and most didn't have working batteries.
- The Bbq wasn’t very clean the burner holes were blocked up so it could not be used only small pockets of flames would lite. The toaster triped out the power, the shower head in the main bathroom sprayed water all iver the floor outside the bath. The house smelled mouldy when first entering after been locked up. The butchers block in the kitchen area had mould growing on it. I was concerned about black mould being present in the house as you cannot see it. It would be a good idea for the staff to check things like the toaster and that the barbecue is working even after we mentioned it at the office on Saturday morning nobody came and looked at the barbecue or even offered to bring another toaster over

Our house was well set up for a family to stay and cook great meals at home! It was such a quiet spot overlooking the forest
The location is great we have stayed there several times before in different houses and never had the problems that we had in this particular house

Spacious and well appointed especially upstairs
Downstairs absolutely stank of damp so much so everything in the kitchen was stinky and dusty smelling. We ended up just staying upstairs as it didn’t smell up there. Also there were huge cockroaches in the kitchen. Our unit was No. 7 my advice go elsewhere if they offer you this one.
Location was great. Good sized accommodation.
Photos on booking.com did not match the accommodation we were given. Photos were of a higher standard, furnishings seemed tired, fan in front bedroom not working properly.
Beautiful spacious house! The photos don’t do it justice, this place was so much bigger than the photos look. Upstairs was high ceilings which made it feel really open, beds were comfortable, had 2 bathrooms upstairs and a toilet downstairs, lots of seating (lounges, big dinning table, outdoor table plus outdoor lounge), even had an extra fly screen section so that you could comfortably sit outside. Self check in made it super easy and we were even allowed in early. Pool was nice, had big umbrella for shade if you want to use too. Honestly wish we stayed longer !!
Couldn’t fault anything !
The location for beaches Clean and decent bedding / shower
No air con , very scruffy compared to other properties at Bluey’s We couldn’t sleep as so hot Also no prior warning that all places to eat are closed Monday/ Tuesday evening
Great location, very spacious,comfortable and well furnished and fitted out.
The ice trays in the freezer were empty when we arrived so no G&Ts!!! (And the TV was a bit tricky).
It was so spacious and well equiped. We were in the area for a wedding so didn’t get to spend as much time as we would have liked in the accommodation but wish we could have stayed a day or too longer to take advantage.
The house was spacious and clean. Had everything you needed and very homely.
Very hot upstairs with no air conditioning. Fans worked but it was still quite hot.
Houses were neat, tidy and clean.Plenty of items to use in kitchen.Great little village feelClose walk to coffee shops
No aircon upstairs - hot in summer!
Good location, walking distance to shops and all the beaches close enough driving. Big comfortable house with everything needed. Aircon works well, nice outside eating area, closed for mozzies
Sea view, joking the bush view is great listening to the cicadas.....
A great quiet location, with clean and tidy facilities. Close to the beach and local shops.
Love how quiet and laid back this resort is.
The rooms can get hot and would love an aircon in bedrooms but not a huge deal
Staff were exceptional very friendly and offered great tips on the local area. The house was clean and well looked after no complaints at all and plan to return again hopefully on many occassions
Everything was perfect
Located close to the cafe and beach
The interior needs a lot of updating as quite tired. The wifi didn’t work and the main bathroom was locked to guests so you could only use the ensuite which was inconvenient. The animal skull above the main bedroom was really creepy so we slept in the spare room and the pool had scum around the edges, needed a deep clean, so glad the beach was close by. Wouldn’t stay here again as it just seems tired all round.
Spacious, clean property. Great location. Very comfortable.
Loved the location and the beds were very comfy. Very clean and tidy and comfortable otherwise. The pool was great for the kids when it wasn't great at the beach. Would come again for sure cheers
The kitchen could have had salt pepper and oil to cook with and maybe some condiments would be nice but otherwise it was a great place If the washing line could be put somewhere with sun things would dry a lot quicker. Maybe some mozzie coils for people to use would be good too. TV didn't want ti work with the WiFi for some reason and only played free to air. Otherwise we hotspotted it to watch the apps.
