Aranda - 3/25 Townsend Street

Spacious,clean and warm..with a really nice view of the lake..I highly recommend it! We will definitely be back!

The place was comfortable, and felt very homey. Amazing lakeside views, close to the main town and had a lot of kitchen utensils and appliances to use. Beds were comfortable and bathrooms spacious and clean. Laundry was great with two clothes racks to place wet clothes in. I loved the fetch TV set box. We watched the Grinch as a group. Only small issues: there were some minor stains on the couch and knives were blunt. All in all, a great place to stay in.

Clean, warm with all the facilities we needed, great value

A quick walk to all the activity in town.

Older style apartment in a good location with ok facilities. BUT. The heating issues are not addressed despite the response to the earlier review saying they were - there are 4 hour timers on tiny radiators, our kids were very cold and not cosy. No gas in bbq so buying meat on the last night turned out to be a waste - most probably I should have checked first rather than assume the advertised bbq would work. Three rude and surly cleaning staff who deliberately parked us in at exactly 10AM - we left the apartment prior to 10AM but lugging all our stuff up the narrow stairs to road level and then trying to pack our car took a few minutes longer than expected. When asked to move their car they were snarky to my wife. Unpleasant end to a very average stay.

Stayed recently at Aranda (Aug 17). Apartment was clean and tidy, with plenty of linen. The apartment has a good location overlooking the lake and fairly close to the town centre. Heating is definitely an issue which needs addressing, 4 hour timings using tiny heaters are just not acceptable. Internet connection also needs to be included in future.

The apartment was very comfortable and roomy. There were a few negatives. After a 4 & 1/2 hour drive with 5 children to arrive and still have to make up all the beds was disappointing. This was after many failed attempts to park our 4 wheel drive and trailer. Although the property is listed as having car parking and boat parking, it is only suitable for smaller cars and as a result we had to park on the street each night. The property is also advertised as heated, whilst this is correct, to keep the unit warm we were required to press a reset button every 4 hours to keep the heaters going. This meant that during the day while on the slopes the unit became very cold and through the night many trips to the front door to reset timer. For the cost of the unit per night, heating should be 24/7 given the location and use of the property and to arrive and be able to go to bed in comfort should be taken into consideration by the management.
