Mikhala's place was beautiful! Such a wonderful place to stay with the family - we had everything we needed from kitchen utensils, to extra blankets and firewood! There was plenty of little bits and pieces in the pantry, Nespresso machine, toaster etc. We also opted for getting the linen supplied as my family was flying from interstate, which was beautiful and worth it as the linen was comfy, clean and soft.
For guests - just make sure you check in about the extra payment as we didn't realise ours was owed as there was no notification in the app and nothing comes through the messages either. I assumed they took payment from the credit card since I didn't hear anything else. Not Mikhala's fault at all, luckily the Airbnb Resolution team got in touch via messages to let me know about the additional payment and we made the payment immediately once informed.
My family and I had a wonderful stay at Mikhala's place, we spent many nights cooking in the kitchen as the weather was cold and didn't get a chance to use the BBQ. Though from what we saw, it seems the BBQ is larger than what previous reviews have mentioned. I think it has been upgraded and it's large enough for a family for sure.
The TV is now sitting on the cabinetry instead of hung on the wall with the extendable/tilt arm, so you won't be able to watch the TV from the couches. The dining table and couches have swapped positions from in the photos (dining table is now in front of the kitchen bench). Something to think about if you're wanting to snuggle in for movie nights, you'll have to move the furniture around to get the right spot.
The bins were also full when we got there, but it wasn't time for rubbish day collection yet. So we had to go to the tip for the excess rubbish unfortunately. It's not too far away, but it does mean you have to make the trip out. Location wise it was perfectly located in Skenes Creek - close to Apollo Bay to get groceries, food and even shops.
