The place was beyond fantastic and suited our large group of 9 perfectly. The host was understanding and kind regarding our group size (no other accommodation would accept a group of this size), ensuring our satisfaction and comfort throughout the stay. I would 100% recommend staying here!!!

Shirley G., Melbourne Australia.

The bedrooms, bathrooms,and lounge were very clean. The kichen bench had crumbs on it, we had to wash the cutlery, and crockery because they were not clean, some gad old food on them, nor were the drawers holding them. We cleaned a lot of drawers before putting back the clean dishes etc.The supposed 4th bedroom with a single bed was nothing but a small box room or study with a hard divan set up as a single bed. In the description on Stayz it stated the 4th bedroom had a single bed. It was not big enough to be a bedroom and it certainly wasn't a single bed. Very disappointing. Also we had to bring dishwashing tablets, toilet paper, top sheets and bin liners as the Stayz site said there was enough only to start us off. Very poor.The vacuum cleaner was choc full of someone else's dirt, so we left it likecthat and just swept the floor before we left. It was very pet friendly, which was good, and nice and spacious.

A great house. Just a short drive to the beach. Plenty of space for 4 adults and one teenager. We loved that we could all sit in the lounge area and at the dining table together.

Great property, really stunning and perfect for a getaway! We had a few issues with supplies (not enough dishwasher tabs, no salt, no hand towels, only one tea towel, no shower gel in one shower) which made the stay a little less convenient, but overall our stay was very comfortable.

We expected to sleep 4 but the last room was more for a child than an adult and we did not expect that. The fly nets were in need of replacement in the main living area other than that it was terrific

Lovely short break

We were coming to Tootgarook for a party just around the corner so this property was very convenient. It was also incredibly peaceful and comfortable with plenty of space and the games room really helped make it fun for our small family. I read books on the sunny verandah watching the birds. It doesn’t say explicitly in the listing but towels aren’t included so make sure to pack them! We hadn’t understood that but the hosts were very helpful. They were also very responsive, helpful and thoughtful when we had internet problems.

The host Tanya was super easy to communicate with. The property was excellent, even better than the photos. The weather wasn't so good, so it was fantastic having the pool table and table tennis for the teens to use. Overall wonderful! Thank you for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home!
