Our Glenelg holiday

Our accommodation was very comfortable and was well set up for guests.I just wish there had been more than one laundry sachet for washing clothes. Apart from that we had all the basics we needed. It was well situated with an easy walk into Glenelg shopping area and to the beach and the tram into Adelaide.

Good for a Sailor

I stayed for 10 nights during the sailing championships. 5 minutes drive to the club and close to Jetty Road for restaurants and shopping. My only slight complaint would be the queen size bed. King size would have gained the 5 stars.

Nice Place, Great Host

The place was exact as advertised, everything we needed for a great few days away. Close to Jetty road and all the good bits of Glenelg. Jeff the host was amazing, we originally had to postpone this trip from earlier in the year due to COVID and Jeff was great about rebooking, and helping make the trip great for me and our young family when we finally did get there.
