We needed alternative weekend accommodation while our house was getting fumigated.
Having the dogs inside with us is our favourite thing!
The Shelly Beach house is the perfect place for that!
Our party of three adults & two dogs (Staffy F & Bull terrier M intact) loved the ocean breeze flowing throughout.
We took our dogs favourite beds, popped them down, hung the leads among the many hooks set up, and then got to sniffing the new surroundings!
The hardwood floors, secure fences and latches, gave peace of mind to us, knowing that our fur kids are always safe.
Regarding pet instincts, like marking unfamiliar territory, there are no 'hot spots' here.
Nor are there 'nuisance barking' neighbouring dogs, which can incite a long, loud doggy conversation.
This means your pets can relax, aswell as you!
Restaurants and beaches are a pleasant, short walk away.
For most meals, we cooked for ourselves, to enjoy the view and breeze.
All ammenities and appliances- kitchen, bathrooms, and laundry, had everything we needed, in good working order.
The host
All communication around organising our stay was pleasant, clear, professional and prompt.
The hospitality
Interaction with the occupants residing below, was genuine, and pleasant.
We were treated to a bottle of champers waiting for us, and treats for the pups.
We were gifted further generosity by way of a late check-out, and a Christmas pudding.
True to the details, construction of the neighbours' new home is occurring, and while present, the noise was not bothersome.
Transparency on the proprietors' part is appreciated regarding this situation.
All in all, a great place to stay.
I'm excited to see what other little goodies the next guests might get!
