  Tracey C from Sydney, NSW recommends this vacation rental

  Our stay was care free. It was great having linen and towels supplied and the simple things like milk, tea, coffee and a welcome bottle of wine. There was every you needed in the fully equipped kitchen and laundry. It was so roomy even with 7 adults staying there.
  
  The view was spectacular and the pool was great too.
  
  It was a quiet location with plenty of things to do and one mile beach was a great place to swim.
  
  Only down side would be that the airconditioning in the bedroom needed to be cleaned as it was
  full of dust and the ducted in the kitchen was dripping water but still worked well. Also there was a unpleasant smell in the two ensuites, possibly in the drains.
  
  I would highly recommend the property and the Stayz team for their friendly manner with any questions we had.

  We enjoyed our stay at the house.
  It was equiped with everything needed.
  We faced 2 issues in relation to pest control.
  We find couple of cockroaches ( bathroom, kitchen, hallway).
  On our second night we woke up to thousands of small insects dead in the hallway where the long stairs are and the swimming pool was full of those insects as well.
  Otherwise we had a good time.

  Above & Beyond was the perfect getaway for us with our adult children & their partners. Everything was as advertised; everything we could possibly want was provided. The pool was terrific, and the temperature pleasant. The view was amazing, with multiple vantage points. Furnishings were tasteful. There was plenty of cutlery & crockery. Plenty of space, even a second fridge in the garage!
