If you want to enjoy a bit of old world Australiana, I would recommend the shack, it brought back a lot of childhood memories. The favourites were the fireplace, the yard and the well equipped kitchen and the living areas had games and things for the kids to do a nice hot shower too!
The beach was one of the best that Australia has to offer.
It was good and close to Mandurah and also lots of amenities close by i.e. coffee shop and supermarket.
Heather was a friendly host with a lovely personality and an enjoyment and love of her generational owned family beach shack and for the local area.
If your a down to earth person that loves life, you'll enjoy being in the shack.
