    Good emaiil communication & prompt repltly with host Chrys who was very accomodating. The house was spectacular & modern. Would suite any family enjoying a relaxing time at Moonta Bay. All bathroom, linen and toiletries supplied. We enjoyed playing ball in the evenings after a nice visit to the Simms Cove beach. Will book again without hesitation.

    Everything was perfect. However, I would like to suggest supplying, gladwrap and more kitchen cloths (Chux).We had an amazing time and will most certainly be recommending A House on the Beach. Kind regards Christine - Classic Katering Staff weekend.

    So lucky to find this getaway last minute for a family of 3 with the added bonus of being right on the beach and have a pool table for our teenage son who has a healthy obsession with the game!! Adding to that, the upstairs balcony provided a fantastic viewing point over the Spencer Gulf to watch the beautiful sunset after a lovely day on the beach (a perfect beach less than 2 mins away, with gentle waves and popular with young families) or on the not so nice weather days, the storms rolling in and the numerous rainbows they produced, all from the inside comfort of the house. The house had ample space and everything we needed, it was lovely and clean and Chrys was easy to communicate with and so accomodating with early checkin and late checkout. We highly recommend this property and would love to come back in the summer!

    A great stay we discovered a lot of history in neighbouring towns, so staying at the House on the Beach was a central location
