  Kenneth N from ., NA recommends this vacation rental

  On entering the house you are surprised by its size and spaciousness.The house was more than enough for our big family.The master bedroom was huge with large floor to ceiling windows to frame the beautiful landscape.The teenagers loved the huge and comfortable Media room and the Pool room.The kitchen was adequate for the size of the house.A good feature was the the Filtered water tap on the bench. On the negative side the tile floor in the kitchen was very sticky underfoot and ea had to mop it again.Probably too much floor cleaning liquid.I feel that the kitchen stove and range hood need a good clean.The ice maker in the fridge does not appear to work.The Dyson vaccuum cleaner does not charge...either the battery or the charger.The Exhaust fan in the main bathroom downstairs is coming away from the ceiling and the shower head in same bathroom is faulty...water comes out of connecting pipe to shower head making it difficult to shower.The toilet in same bathroom has trouble flushing....slow to operate. The outdoor BBQ was excellent and it was a good idea to have a spare bottle og gas as the one hooked up to bbq was empty.OVERALL IT WAS A PLEASANT STAY.

  The 8 of us had a wonderful stay here . The house is beautiful and so is the decor. The view was spectacular a shame the 3 days we stayed here we had extreme winds so we could not make use of the outdoor deck area . All bedrooms were a great size . A remote for the garage would have been handy . All in all I would recommend a stay here you would not be disappointed.

  Jonathan C from ., NA recommends this vacation rental

  We loved the home but there were a few things that were needing attention.
  The dishwasher didn’t work (we suspect the previous guest had the same issue as a dishwasher tablet was in the bottom still.) We tried all the troubleshooting in the manual but no luck.
  The kitchen bins are a terrible fit and it was a struggle to open the draw every time, and near impossible to close unless you manually held one of the bins up so as not to catch on the base of the cupboard.
  We expected necessities such as salt would be available.
  The Dyson vacuum in the garage didn’t work.

  Tim F from Winston Hills, NA recommends this vacation rental

  This was an amazing house and the view was beautiful from almost every part of the house.
  Enjoyed everything the house had to offer, cinema room, outdoor area with the bbq, pool table and comfortable bedrooms with decent bathrooms. Only thing to note is you need to drive into town and beaches. Parking is limited with a steep driveway and road doesn't have much space. We had a boat and jetski and it was difficult to keep out the front. Lastly, neighbours are close to the house so need to be considerate about noise. Would go again if available.

  The property was well presented and we needed nothing apart from food and drinks . The managers were great and property was easily accessed. Position was good for views and privacy but car needed for all shopping and beach .cinema room well used being winter , sound bar proved a challenge also pool table good . I feel in summer a property with a pool would be a better choice . House was warm with no heating needed all beds were comfortable.A great choice for group of 10 would stay again.

  10 of us had a really great weekend. 5 lovely bedrooms and multiple ensuites. Outdoor Space and views are stunning. We found fridge space limited for 10 adults self catering as there is just one fridge/freezer. When I contacted the management company to ask if there was a second small fridge elsewhere in the property I was surprised that the suggestion was for me to go to KMART and buy an Esky. We bought ice and improvised with a large plastic container one of the group had brought with them.

  Wayne C from Blue Haven, NA recommends this vacation rental

  The house and property lives up the the photos and once you pull up into the driveway we just said WOW until we reached the rear deck.
  But the little things did take some of the shine off
  - After advice the coffee machine is there and you take your pods as advised, we unpack and go to make a coffee and find the coffee machine doesn’t work. After a phone call to report this the machine was replaced the nest day.
  - In the theatre room the sound bar and TV didn’t work, no sound, have to use the TV speakers
  - salt shaker was there but there was no salt in it
  - weeds on paths and in pot plants
  When paying top dollar for accommodation you expect that these little things do work and are presented to match what you spend

  A lovely weekend stay with our family for my Mother's 80th birthday, the house was as pictured with lots of room to relax or play that fun game of pool. Kitchen was huge and perfect for the caterer to work his magic on our birthday dinner. Just a suggestion, more coffee mugs required for a group of 10, also the coffee machine did not work and the BBQ was in need of a clean before we used it. Overall a beautiful house with fantastic 180 degree views of Nelson Bay and the surrounding bush.

  The palace looking house siting at the corner of the hill with impressive views and very specious space every rooms , spotless clean in the kitchen and all rooms , all sheets are snow white cotton made which made the bed so comfy and warm , everything are like brand new , all of us were extremely happy with the stay . Each of us were so exciting when we arrived at 3pm in the afternoon , the golden sunset just in front of the gate which made a beautiful look picture , and the back yard with far ocean view and a lots greens surrounding the decking ....we had unforgettable happy hours there and we took a lot of photos to show our families and friends and also made video to post on media . The best thing is there are 4 bathrooms which is so convenient to us . To be honest nothing need to complain at all, we are very appreciate that the owner has left us two bottles of wine which made us feel really nice and kind. Thanks very much for such beautiful represented art designed home . I will give it a five star hotel grade .

  Sarah M from Manly, New South Wales does not recommend this vacation rental.

  Gorgeous house and amazing views from every room. Huge kitchen, relaxing outdoor deck and great cinema room and pool table. Nice furnishings and finishes throughout the house.
  
  A few improvements could be made however, particularly because of how much you pay to stay here. There was no toilet paper or paper towels for the property, would think this would be included in the rental. Kitchen was pretty bare also.
  
  Be prepared to feel like an intruder in the ‘community.’ We found a neighbour lurking on the doorstep and peeking in the windows. When asked if we could help him he complained about having a car parked in the street. There were 9 of us and 4 cars so we couldn’t fit all of them in the driveway and garage. He was very entitled and we didn’t appreciate the way he spoke to us. He asked us to move the car in front of the neighbours house which would have stuck out in the middle of the street. You can tell the neighbours don’t like having this house as a rental and will let you know about it.
  
  We received a call from the property manager at 8:15 pm on Easter Sunday as we had just sat down for Easter dinner. The owners had apparently come by the property and thought that we had too many people in the house. It was Easter weekend and the neighbours had guests over, cars parked in front of their house. The owners assumed they were our guests and accused us of having extra people at the property. To say we were annoyed was an understatement. We paid almost $6,000 to stay here and we were constantly being made to feel like we were doing something wrong when we were just trying to enjoy a relaxing long weekend. For these reasons I would not book this place again.
