This is quite a well equipped homestay. Its true that it has room for improvements, however, the owners are so lovely and helpful. I recommend the artists room. Very comfy bed and lovely outside bathroom. Lots of space for chilling out in the garden. Conveniently close to everything including the beach!

Booked last minute. No one onsite to check in. Owner eventually rang me and turned up with a key. Room was small but reasonably comfy and clean bed. Shared shower and toilets clean. No tea and coffee available. Outside BBQ with full ash-tray and needed cleaning and spruce up. One room was flooded. Owner was nice. Parking was on the property, but not enough spaces for the number of rooms. Definitely overpriced for what it was. Would I stay there again? Probably not!

Not the best kept place I've stayed at. Empty bottles & cans strewn around bin, old, manky outdoor furniture. Shared toilet could be cleaner. Room a bit musty. Outdoor dining facilities aren't too bad. A bit overpriced for what's delivered.

The hostess was very rude, loud and had a language barrier. It's advertised as a hotel Holiday inn and when you get there it's a old house with a couple of bedrooms downstairs, over the two days I stayed there I saw so many people walk in and out because it is not appropriate to stay in, it should be closed down. they don't get a refund, they can't. it's a trap, it is a scam. it should be taken off your website . We paid $518 for two nights we had no TV no microwave the room was disgusting we had to clean it on arrival. I can show photos,i have shown photos, I have more photos.
And here's a picture of the toilet that barely flushes it's a real lovely visit that one make sure you go before you get there
Here's a picture of the microwave area inside but it doesn't heat
Here's another picture of the backyard there's a fence over by the bathroom window at least you know there are no peeping toms anymore
This is a lovely backyard area where you'll be spending most of your time when none of the amenities work

Massive hole in the door broken glass everywhere. The owner was very rude, arrogant, dismissive and unapologetic. Absolutely no care about a person’s safety or wellness due to safety issues. I can’t stop writing about this place. To list everything would take a while. I’ll finish like this, I haven’t been able to leave this he’ll hole yet because there is broken glass trapped under my door to move my stuff out.

It was not clean, one bathroom is shared by 3 bed rooms, front door couldn't close, the wall insulation was terrible, I can hear next door bed movement noise clearly. There were trash bags left near the stair to 2nd floor. Some lights in the room were not working. The room is very small. There is no desk in the room. The back yard had very tall grasses. The property was not maintained well. It should not be served as a hotel. I don't recommend anyone to stay there.
a very small hallway to connect 3 bedrooms, the ceiling is low. It smell bad like mold due to moisture, and room window couldn't open.
The front door couldn't be closed, someone can get in without the key.
Trash bags were left at the stair to the 2nd floor

U cant fond the place then no one was there. There was building pallets in the drive way overflowing rubbish bins that stink. Wotif should not have this place on its site unless wotifs standards have dropped so much. Couldnt find anyone so had to book another place more costs. Dont be fooled by the Seaside name its not the place is a complete opposite to what they advertise. What a disgrace.

Not what was advertised, unfriendly service. About $100 to much for what was falsely advertised. Beds were uncomfortable, facilities not what was expected. No where near the beach. Parking is a major issue. No one there when arrived and when owner turned up would not refund. Absolute con job, considering going to fair trading.
