Getaway House - Great Value 5 mins walk to beach - Family friendly holiday home

We had a great host Wendy who made our checkin and checkout process easy. The amenities

This property was close to shops and the beach. It is located on a through road which is busy during the day but fairly quiet at night. It was difficult to get on street parking. The house had a lovely pool which was well used by the family, overlooked by a great patio with a bbq. A gas bottle was provided but it was running a little low. There were plenty of towels provided, some pool noodles and lounges and even sunscreen. The rear garden was basic and unmown. The bin area was a little untidy. Inside had a lovely beach vibe and was a great relaxing family space. There was plenty of comfortable seating provided and the kitchen was well stocked with basic groceries, cookware, wine glasses etc. There were a couple of maintenance issues, eg. loose skirting boards, dishwasher left some dishes with residue, no body wash in main bathroom, of the 2 hairdryers 1 wasn’t working. The house was very clean except our bare feet became dirty from the floors on the first day before we had been outside. Beds and pillows were all comfortable. There were plenty of cupboards and storage space, books for toddlers and adults, a couple of games, a good iron and ironing board. Thank you Wendy, we had a really wonderful stay in this spacious family holiday home.

Wendy was very helpful and responsive. Travellers looking for a pool should be aware that the pool is not heated, it was not usable during our trip due to being too cold, (July) the sea was actually warmer. It may sound obvious as it is brisbane’s winter when we visited, but the pool is listed on Vrbo for searches and we booked the house specifically because it had a private kpool. If it is not usable for half the year, I think this needs to be mentioned in the listing on Vrbo. So If a pool is one of your main criteria, just double check it is going to be usable for your trip and big enough for your needs. It would be great for small children and for adults to take a cooling dip in the Aussie summer.We’ve had a fantastic time at the house though, Netflix and prime video available of the smart tvs and good WiFi We would definitely come back and stay again. When they finish the G-Link Tram works, it will be fantastic for easy connection to Broadbeach, Surfers Paradise and Burleigh heads.

Property was as described, host Wendy was fabulous to communicate with, excellent location, the only downside we encountered was the cleanliness was not up to standard. Linen was perfect however the floors and showers were not clean.

The house was fantastic. There were 11 of us (3 families) 5 kids and 6 adults. The house was big enough to fit us all very comfortably. There were plenty of rooms, bathrooms and beds. The house was in a great condition and looked exactly as it did in photos. It was a very short walk to the beach and there is a woollies around the corner. The house is in such a great location. We all had hire cars but you could definitely use public transport to get around as the house is very close to the main road. We all absolutely loved the house and would definitely book it again. The check in and out was easy and instructions left by the owner were very clear. Thanks for everything Wendy.

Thank you Wendy for a wonderful stay. It was a perfect getaway for our family and the location was amazing - so close to walk down to the beach or grab a few things at the supermarket to do a cook up. Very spacious with ample room for multiple family members and it was lovely to relax by the pool with the great weather. Wendy was responsive and lovely to deal with. We would definitely stay again!

Wendy was an amazing host! She was incredibly helpful every step of the way! The house was fantastic! Perfect for what we needed! Excellent location! Felt like home!

Great location! Short walk to great food & the beach! Pool is perfect for the kids too!

Perfect location, great space, very clean and room for all the family. There was 7 of us so the extra big dining table was super handy.

Great
