Upon arrival for key collection there was a little difficulty getting hold of someone in the office to sign documents and collect keys, a sign of a very busy time in Broome. Despite that we were delighted when arriving at the house - which is perfectly located a short distance from Broome's main attractions.
Set on a very large block and surrounded by well established trees, a very comfortable setting to relax and enjoy the swimming pool and cubby house (we have 3x kids under 6yrs old!)
The house layout combines the original build with a few more recent updates. If we were to be picky, one bathroom is a slight limitation, but a separate toilet helped out.
Our kids got used to showering too (no tub), but honestly spent most of the time either in the large swimming pool, playing with the abundant children's toys found in the playroom or hunting for "critters" in the 1600+ sqm yard. The established trees bring a range of lizards, frogs and bugs - which delighted our critter crazy 4yr old son!
The kitchen is quite new, large and links with a dining area - sadly the child's table and bench seats shown in the listing images - is no longer there (our 6yr old daughter was quite disappointed). Also missing was the cot, which did cause us a difficult first night given the house wasn't configured to suit our booking (2x adults, 2x kids under 6, 1x baby/toddler).
A baby seat and cot were supplied the next morning - which helped greatly.
Bedrooms were well equipped, plenty of storage and very spacious.
Wifi is good, but struggles to cover the house/lounge (not great for streaming to the TV).
Laundry facilities allow keeping on top of clothing whilst you are away (no catch up when returning home).
Parking is in abundance, but I made the mistake of parking under trees that dropped a lot of debris - which required a thorough clean before returning it to the hire car company (my fault).
One item that needs to be mentioned is the owners do have another "house" on the property and they were staying there on and off during our stay. This was mentioned at the time of booking, but it wasn't clear that the dwelling is a large garage which must have toilet and shower facilities inside. There was a few moments with the owners coming and going and us entering and exiting the pool which did cause some awkwardness - but it's not a deal breaker.
We were provided a late checkout - which was a godsend given we had an evening flight out. This was VERY, appreciated and as such we spent a lot more time giving the house a deep clean before we left.
Overall we were very happy during our stay and would book the house again if it was available.
