Our recent stay here over the new year period was great. This a fabulous house for a large family or two small families to stay that has an amazing view high up in the hills. On New Year’s Eve we had 180 degree view of the fireworks! The house furnishings and amenities were nicely done, spacious, and rooms were very comfortable. Our host was extremely attentive to our requests and was so very helpful. I recommend this place for a great getaway as it is close to the beaches, shops and golf courses, and yet is very quiet and removed from the school holiday chaos.
