This is a classic beach house in a great location.
We have three boys and had a great time enjoying the beach which is literally only a few steps away. Casuarina has also kicked along nicely since we were there last.
Communication with the host was good and they were responsive when we had issues such as running out of bbq gas.
If you are Southerners like us and struggle in the heat...take note that there is no air conditioning!
This took away from the trip a little bit as it was incredibly hot upstairs and we all struggled to sleep. We slept with all the windows open which created its own problem with bugs.
However, this is clearly stated in the ‘not included’ list on the listing so it was our fault for not noticing. It was not top of mind when we booked as there was AC available last time we stayed in this house.
Also note that there are no block out curtains and no blinds on one side of the building. Unfortunately the neighbours sleep with their lights on which means the master bedroom was well-lit all night.
All in all it is a good house in a good location and the host is first rate. It is on the expensive side at peak season given the lack of blinds and AC.
