Sue communicated with us extremely well prior to our arrival. We enjoyed our stay at Aero despite experiencing exceptionally heavy rain for the first 4 days. We did not meet the caretaker but the house was clean overall, well prepared, nicely furnished with lots of room and space for 5 of us. The kitchen was well equipped and we enjoyed our family meals using the large dining table. There were lots of CDs and DVDs and games. The area is magical. Our children enjoyed kite-surfing and surf-boarding on some of the nearby beaches once the weather improved. I found the best bit of the day was sitting on the upper balcony early in the morning near the tree canopy and listening to the lovely cacophony of bird song as the sky lightened. We visited 'Frothy Coffee' most days where you can rent sailing dinghys and small motor boats. In good weather there is certainly a lot to see and explore in the area. We hope we will have an opportunity to come to Smiths Lake again.
