We arrived to a dark, empty house so were a bit disappointed that we didn't seem to get the same welcome as other reviewers reported.

The house was (mostly) clean, comfortable and modern. The pool had alot of sand in it (as did the front porch) and the spa water was very milky. The house is nice on the surface/ in the photos but when actually staying there, you soon realise that it is fairly 'haphazard'. There are open gaps between walls, plaster/ paint missing and old electrical points covered by old electrical tape.

Although the owners description states that there is aircon, only the living area has aircon leaving the rooms very hot and stuffy. There were ceiling fans in the rooms but they had 3 speeds; slow, slower and slowest and weren't worth having on because of the awful clicking noise they made as they wobbled from the celing.

We could only sleep in 1 of the 3 rooms because the front room got the sun first thing in the morning and the back room got the afternoon sun making them resemble an oven. The bed in the middle room is a double made by 2 singles being pushed together. The join is hard and uncomfortable and a mattress topper would make a great improvement.

All in all our stay at this property was very disappointing as we stayed in Byron for the renewal of our vows. We feel that the photos of the property did not reflect the reality accurately and it is overpriced.
