Mermaid Waters Week Away
The house was fantastic. There were 11 of us (3 families) 5 kids and 6 adults. The house was big enough to fit us all very comfortably. There were plenty of rooms, bathrooms and beds. The house was in a great condition and looked exactly as it did in photos. It was a very short walk to the beach and there is a woollies around the corner. The house is in such a great location. We all had hire cars but you could definitely use public transport to get around as the house is very close to the main road. We all absolutely loved the house and would definitely book it again. The check in and out was easy and instructions left by the owner were very clear. Thanks for everything Wendy.

Thank you Wendy for a wonderful stay. It was a perfect getaway for our family and the location was amazing - so close to walk down to the beach or grab a few things at the supermarket to do a cook up. Very spacious with ample room for multiple family members and it was lovely to relax by the pool with the great weather. Wendy was responsive and lovely to deal with. We would definitely stay again!

Ticked all the right boxes
Property was perfect for our occasion allowing heaps of room for 8 family members. House was comfortable, had everything you need and a few nice little touches supplied by the owners that make that little difference. Checkin was super easy and location was handy to many facilities. Yes there are a few maintenance and little TLC jobs that are evident but they do not detract at all from a pleasant and very comfortable stay. I would stay there again

Wonderful stay
Had a wonderful stay at Wendy's place. The house had lots of space for our large family. The pool was a lovely way to cool off after a long day at the theme park. Wendy was a great host from the time of initial enquiry and throughout our stay. Highly recommended!!!

Wendy was easy to communicate with. Was disappointed we had to clean the house when we arrived especially when the rate included a cleaning fee. Due to the cleaning problem we wouldn't stay again.

Fantastic house and location
We stayed at Wendy and Peter’s house for 10 nights and were totally thrilled with it. The location is wonderful and so easy to get to all attractions on the Gold Coast using the public transport at the end of the street. The house is beautiful and well appointed with plenty of room for the 6 of us to be able to relax very comfortably. I could not recommend this property more highly. We will be back that’s for sure. Thank you.

Our group had a good time in the house. The house is spacious
We enjoyed staying at the house. However the manager’s husband arrived at the property at time 10:00am Sharp, the checkout time when we were taking our food and bags out to the car. He came with cleaners. We over heard him telling cleaners to start cleaning straight away and to push us out. Mind him we paid $$$$ for a week stay with two toddlers and two children under ten years of age. There was no kindness at the end of our stay, it almost felt like our worth is money and nothing else. What a disappointment!

Gold Coast family getaway
The property housed a family of 9 including couple with two children under 3. The 'granny flat' was great for the little family to afford separation and quiet space for little ones. Pool and outdoor area were north facing and comfortable all day. Open plan living allows for cool breeze to circulate. Single air con in that area provides cooling for all bedrooms in hot summer if you leave bedroom doors open and fans on. One ensuite bedroom in house. Others share sizeable bathroom with shower and tub. Only discomfort was smelly bins waiting for collection. Perhaps a commercial collection could be arranged as we had to leave quite a lot of rubbish after 5 days also. The vanity units were slow to drain and had to clear hair and muck from under plug waste. Cleaners should be made aware. Overall location to beach was great. Good amenities with shopping strip 2 minutes walk away and larger supermarkets a short drive. Close to Pacific Fair for a big shopping day out. Fox TV and Netflix provide back up entertainment. Overall very satisfied with this choice.
