Traveller reviews

“Fabulous experience both with the property and the owners.”
10 Jan 2025
It’s a gorgeous house amongst stunning rainforest.

“Relaxing, private, spacious house, very comfortable.”
10 Jun 2024
space, comfort, wide verandah. We had 4 teenage/young adult kids. They all enjoyed their own room/space. it was a bit of a spoil to have all 6 of us in such a comfortable home. The pool table at the property was the deciding factor in booking this place. It rained for 7 days straight so we really appreciated the pool table and wide verandah so we could still enjoy the outdoors and BBQ. The swimming pool was great too.

“Superb”

The most beautiful home in the most beautiful location. A private, well equipped teopical paradise just a few minutes walk from Cows Bay and plenty of cafes and restaurants within short driving distance. .

“we wanted something off the grid but still very comfortable, where we could shift our minds away from work, we were not”
