Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
The Ducks Nest is an excellent place to stay. It is very spacious (and there were eight of us), very well kitted out, a nice size garden, including a large BBQ, with plenty in the house to entertain the kids (we had two in our group). The location is perfect for the beach, Rockingham, Mandurah or even Freo and Perth. Tony is an excellent host, very helpful, courteous and welcoming. Everyone in our group thoroughly enjoyed our stay and all commented on what a lovely place the Ducks Nest is. I thoroughly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.
