The property was in a good location. However the house was poorly maintained, lamps didn't work, sofas had a strong smell and were grubby. Previous tenants had left toys lying around and general cleanliness was poor. Also found broken glass when we were cleaning up.

Lucky enough to get this home in the April school holidays. Located on a quiet street less than a minute walk from Abbey Beach, the house is an older style but has everything you need for a family holiday. And pet friendly too! Will be back for sure

I love this house! It’s not new and it doesn’t need to be because it’s comfortable and welcoming. Everything you need is in the house and shops and conveniences are just around the corner. The location is perfect and I can’t wait to visit again.

Great older style home with all you need...
House was clean and tidy. Kitchen was fully equipped, bedrooms were spacious and beds were comfy. Great location within walking distance to the beach, great enclosed yard for the pooch, and brought back memories of my Nan and Pops house back in the day.. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Great Location
Old property but everything you need is provided (just bring egg-cups if you're partial to a boiled egg!). Kitchen was definitely retro but functional. Heaps of games available, a cosy little TV room, outdoor area is lovely in the evening with possums for company, beds were comfortable. Only a few steps to the beautiful beach at the end of the road so location is great. BBQ looked a bit grime but we used trays so all good. We were five adults staying and the lack of a second bathroom/ensuite surprisingly wasn't an issue, shows how pampered we are at home :-) Overall, a great little house due to the location and we'd definitely go back.

Quiet getaway
This property is very well located, just a short stroll to the beach and a short drive to the local grocer store. The house was comfortable and clean; sitting out the front in the morning sun is delightful and the back yard is warm in the afternoon sun. Abbey is well located for daily drives in the beautiful countryside.

Dead dog - almost!
Only stayed 1 night. The pooch tried to commit suicide. Ate a bloody blow fish. Back in the car and off to the E ward at WAVES in Perth. Just in case she shut down and needed a ventilator. And considering there are no ,(yep - NIL), of said pieces of equipment in the South West it was a high speed trip back home. Life saved !! Super dog. Snake bite - win ! Blowie - win ! Next ?

Love staying at this property, this was our second stay. The area is amazing and the “locals” are very welcoming. The area is super dog friendly. We had a great Christmas Day at the property and had all the facilities to cook what we wanted to. Look forward to coming again with our dog in the future.

Comfortable and conveniently located
Nice little house close to the beach with small shops less than a km away. Plenty of toys for the kids, clean good size rooms and excellent communication from the manager. Appreciate them allowing us the extra night at late notice after car troubles. Doubt we will ever stay in other forms of accommodation now and will stick to Stayz properties.
