Beautiful house with secure yard for our puppy

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beautiful house with lovely decorations and furniture, with fans in all rooms. Really enjoyed our stay. The beds were very comfortable as well. Found we would get some ants if food rubbish was not put outside in summer. Short walk to the beach.

Great stay - highly recommend!

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: property was very clean and well-maintained, so many thoughtful amenities and personal touches which we very much appreciated. BBQ & coffee machine were terrific. Close to the beach and dog friendly - perfect for us! The only feedback we had was perhaps a second (older) fridge could be added to the shed, we found that there wasn't really any room to store our fishing bait and catch surplus drinks. Thankyou so much for a lovely stay, we hope to be back again soon!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Well laid out house with pretty much everything you could need for a family. Studio/shed had the dart board and table tennis. Beach is a very short walk over one street. Very flat and perfect for a kayak, paddle board or a swim. Magical sunsets. Very quiet area and location was great to get to Point Turton and other lovely seaside towns for fishing and snorkeling. Imagine it is the best location if you have a boat. Air con was needed due to the lovely hot weather and so was very grateful for that. Bedrooms have fans only. We enjoyed our stay. Had some ants in the kitchen so take everything in containers and store things in the fridge that they might want to get into. Mgt will look into that but sometimes it can’t be helped. Didn’t impact us greatly.

Comfortable and spacious

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family and I stayed at Royston Retreat for 4 nights and loved how spacious and comfortable it was for a family of 5. Loved the ping pong table and darts too! The only downfall was the cleanliness of the house... eg toilet, vanity (soap scum around taps), dead bugs on windowsills, food splatters on venetians at kitchen window.
