Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family and friends enjoyed a weekend in May. Hemston is spacious, light filled, warm and inviting. We loved the expansive front garden and for our family pet and the fire pit was enjoyed in the evening. Close to Sorrento town, peaceful and quiet surroundings. Furnished well and comfortable bedding. The converted garage lounge retreat was a hit with our teenagers.

Great house

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Fabulous layout excellent location. Absolutely loved it all. Back room was so perfect for kids as an additional living room. Could walk to town and shops and close to beaches. Lots of space and great interiors Only downsides were- ants everywhere even in the bathroom when we obviously don’t eat in there. Disappointing. Also for the price having one air con in that heat with very few blinds in living room made it way too hot

Hemston a coastal haven !

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very unhappy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A beautiful light filled home, welcoming and tastefully appointed with ample room for our large family getaway. A secluded location but within easy reach of town, plenty of amenities and games to keep everyone occupied without ever leaving, plus a great outdoor deck area for long relaxed lunch and afternoon sessions. Everyone loved the stay and already talking about a return visit.
