We stayed in Serenity 3 nights during Easter Holiday and it was an awesome break for us. We are 2 families from Sydney and among us we have 3 primary school children and a toddler.

The house is amazingly beautiful. Sitting on the slope among gum trees, the house is created and designed in such a way that is fully harmonised with its natural environment. The house is bright with big windows and doors opening to a spacious balcony, so you feel like you are outside while preparing the meal or watching the movie. French industrial elements were combined to create modern look in a very big open space compromising of kitchen, living room and dining room. The rest of the house is wonderful too. The beds were very comfortable, so much that I am looking to buy a same mattress for my house in Sydney! The house is spacious, and at no time during our stay we felt it’s crowded with having two families staying. Also, the house was immaculately clean with no clutter throughout the whole house.

Most of the time when we were inside we spent on the balcony just relaxing and talking. We took children to a few nearby beaches including Boomerang wich is my favourite, Blueys and Seal Rock beach. Boomerang and Blueys beaches are just 5 minutes’ drive while Seal rock is a little bit further but if you have children I would recommend you going to Seal Rock. It is safer for children and it’s beautiful too. In the morning I went for a walk with my children to Froth Café which is located in prime location sitting on the water edge of Smith Lake. The walk is about 2 km one way and while I would recommend the walk because it’s so peaceful and inspiring, I would not recommend Froth café. There is nothing outstanding about this place.
On our last day we finally got organised and used kayaks that the owners so kindly offered to us to use at no additional cost. This proved to be a big hit with children, especially my 10 years old who was able to kayak by himself on the lake. He was so proud of himself.
Communication with Rebecca was efficient, responsive and polite. Oh yes... I almost forgot to mention; we had a bottle of Champaign waiting for us when we arrived on Friday, and some chocolates Easter eggs for the children. It was a very thoughtful thing to do. Thanks Rebecca for everything.
