Fabulous location, lovely spacious home

We loved the proximity to the beach and the size of the kitchen and living areas - made for a very easy stay with teenage children. The rear deck was fabulous, albeit the blinds need repairing. Clean and comfortable. Would recommend and rent again.

A guest from VIC,

The Goolwa house

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was very comfortable and beautifully clean and tidy. There were several points that detract from the property;1. There should be hand rails on the front and back stairs for the elderly.2. The knives were blunt.3. There were no instructions for the exhaust fan4. There was no tumble dryer despite it being advertised in the property description.

Fantastic Location

This property was fantastic. It was in a great location so close to the beach and a nice stroll into the main street etc. I love the open plan kitchen, dining and living area. The backyard was well maintained and a great size for playing a bit of backyard cricket. The only downside was having no WIFI and the reception being very poor it was hard to get online when needed.

Excellent accommodation. We have already reviewed with Unwind Holidays. We appreciated the complimentary bottle of "Organic Hill" wine but it was undrinkable (all 6 of us wine drinkers agreed with that assessment)

A clean, comfortable and well located rental

Our 5 night stay ending this morning Friday 20th January, 2017, was most enjoyable. The property exceeded our expectations in terms of location, cleanliness, facilities, comfort and space for the 5 adults of our group. The air conditioning and ceiling fans were very effective during a hot spell. We appreciated both the proximity of the Encounter Bikeway and Goolwa Beach, and the provision of basic supplies.
