  a guest from Hammondville, NSW recommends this vacation rental

  It was lovely and clean place, close to shops and a very short walk to the beach. After receiving the wrong set of keys on arrival and trying to call after no response we made a quick dash back to town to pick up the right set of keys we were just lucky enough they were still open. This wasn't the greatest start to the trip. But after that we had a lovely stay. Washing machine didn't spin washing was very wet. And limited heating for winter.

  Margaret H from Narangba, QLD recommends this vacation rental

  The Unit was lovely and the location was AWESOME ! We couldn't have picked a nicer view it was just glorious. We were though quite disappointed that the beds were not made up on arrival and all the linen was in a green bag for us to sort out. The washing machine did not work properly at all which now needs looking at as we had to ring all our clothes out over the bath as the spin cycle did not work at all. Overall though it was a lovely stay in a beautiful location.

    We are terribly sorry for the inconvenience you experienced on your holiday away. We agree, that bed must be ready prior to arrival and it would have been much better to have working appliances. Please be rest assured that housekeeping and maintenance team look into these issues.

  Lovely apartment and wonderful location. Winning Holidays seems most interested in charging extras than getting their basics right. We had x1 toilet paper roll, no hand soap, no tea towel, no bin bags, no access to garage car park

    Hi Reuben, Thank you so much for you high star rating! We really appreciate it! If there is ever an issue on arrival, please contact our office immediately and we will send our maintenance team out as quickly and smoothly as possible to rectify the situation without interrupting your holiday.

  Anand S from NA, NOTAVAIL does not recommend this vacation rental.

  I feel sorry for the owner. The property manager is really letting them down. We had no linen or towels for 2 nights. The BBQ did not work. The management company was largely non-responsive to our requests. They did not answer the phone or reply to messages sent via AirBnB or via email.
