Sorry long review but thorough. Beautiful place at a great location just a short walk to Elizabeth beach and about 20 mins from Forster. Much quieter than Forster. Double garage was perfect for our two SUVS. Feels like a very friendly and safe area, looks like mostly retired locals out and about walking and saying hello to each other. Some very friendly kookaburras visited us on the upstairs balcony too! The property at the back appears to be owned by another property rental company. It’s totally secluded and very privately separated from this place. No shared driveway or shared garden or anything shared. The private Outdoor shower w hot water was perfect after visiting the beach. The place is bigger than it seems in the pictures. Plenty of space for our party of 7 adults even with only the one open living/dining/kitchen space. Two large bathrooms one downstairs and the other upstairs with a shower and toilet each. Shower water pressure is amazing. downstairs bathroom is an ensuite that the two bedrooms share. Big tub in the upstairs bathroom. Also there is another toilet in the laundry area downstairs. Washing machine and dryer were so handy. Kitchen is modern and well equiped with utensils. Only one tv downstairs which could be bigger. I would recommend this place and would stay here again.
Please ensure to bring fitted sheets for all the beds, the beds all have a doona and doona cover but no flat sheets if it’s hot. (Place has aircon) there are also some extra blankets. All beds have two pillows each with pillow covers but maybe bring some extra. Also bring towels, this place has no towels at all, you will need hand towels and bathroom towels.
Key collection was super easy, very close by and we were able to easily collect after hours late. I wish there was two sets of keys available, makes it easier for a bigger house with guests going out and returning at different times. A smart lock would be an awesome addition with some key fobs or passcode.
Only Downfalls are that there are very limited supplies of things like toilet paper, Garbage bags and larger kitchen bin, cleaning utensils in the kitchen, paper towel, soaps. No extras like shampoo or conditioner. The place as others have said could use a deep clean. It was tidy and clean in general but a few things needed higher attention - The bbq was very dirty and was in need of a deep clean, after we had spent some time cleaning it, and got it set up, it ran out of gas after 5 mins of use so we then had to cook everything on the stove as the place where they advise you to swap and get a new gas bottle (free) wasn’t open late. The exterior Windows all need a deep clean as lots of cobwebs. One of the fly screen doors did not lock (main doors all lock well) and the bedroom carpets downstairs had stains (drink spills) and could use a good deep clean. Bottoms of the Kitchen drawers need a clean. If these little minor issues were fixed this place would be perfect.
Regardless of these minor issues I had an awesome stay and would love to stay here again. Book this one!
Oh and just a note - the next beach down from Elizabeth beach is a beach named Shelly beach. FYI this is a nude beach.
