Beautiful views, but in need of a deep clean
The views from this property are beautiful and having the pontoon was great for fishing and mooring boat, but when booking you should consider few issues. There are no block out blinds in the bedrooms, this mean the kids were up at 5.30am and I woke up in the middle of the night, as the moon on the water is quite bright - bring a mask. There are no flyscreens in the whole property. A lot of windows were locked, but some open and obviously others had kept them open, as there were lots of inspects and even spiders in the house - we get the occasional huntsman at home but this was more than usual for Australia. The house is covered in cobwebs and leaves and needs a good going over with a leaf blower. My friend who arrived first said she also had to wipe down all the outside tables and the coffee table inside before using them. The balcony was full of leaves and she also had to sweep them up. The tiles were filthy and so we did not use the balconies as much as we would have liked. The whole house needs a deep clean, or a review of the current cleaners - there is mould in the grout in the ensuite ect. The design of the bathrooms is poor with no fan in the ensuite and tiny vanities with no space to put stuff. Oh and the ensuite does not have a blind, so while I was having a shower I looked out the window horrified to see a man in a neighbouring property. Luggage racks/stands would also be a welcome addition, as the wardrobes are tiny and everyone put their suitcase on the floor. In general the property isn't really suitable for kids, as the stairs are very steep and part of the upstairs stairs had no balustrade.
