Perfect for us

Our family travelled to Adelaide from various locations around Australia to celebrate our youngest's 21st birthday. This house gave us a base to meet, get ready and then relax and recover the next day! We enjoyed having the large outdoor table to relax around and the pool to cool off in. The area is very quiet and surrounded by trees, making you forget that you're in the city, however shops and eateries are nearby. We would definitely re book again and have already recommended this place to friends.

Poolside great fun!

Good time for all family and pets but disappointed with oven not working, coffee machine inoperable, one cupboard handle semi-attached and very noisy floor boards particularly in corridor leading into secondary corridor, it actually sounds like a gunshot! Made contact with management about the oven and owner did not call us until well over an hour and texts back and forth were totally unsuccessful. Owners' English was hard to follow.

We were never told that the property has security system facing the pool and entrance and the recording is stored. The front door is opened with a code but gets jammed when you open it manually from the inside. We were effectively trapped inside the house a few times. The pool

Central oasis

We really enjoyed this home mostly for the pool and location. The beds were all very comfortable . Our negatives were very dirty widows that ruined the ambience of the home, made it feel grubby. There was no mattress protectors. Generalcleanliness was low .

Peaceful and relaxing

A large home that is comfortable and quiet and having air conditioning in each room was great. Swimming pool was just perfect for those hot days we had. Local shopping was great and we experienced good takeaway. Overall this was perfect for a 2 week getaway, I would recommend.

Great Team Base

Sincere thanks to the property manager - very easy to get hold of and was super responsive to getting the hot water sorted out. The property worked really well for us, being a group of six adults. The group appreciated the warm welcome & the pantry supplies. Well appointed house in a great location - really good for sports event at SA Aquatic Centre. Thanks again

Seacliff Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a lovely 4 night stay at Seacliff Poolside Escape. The house easily accommodated 8 people with enough bedrooms and 2 lounge areas and great outdoor entertaining spaces. There was a fire pit area out back and good BBQ area. We were so impressed by the BBQ, we ended up buying one ourselves when we returned home. The house contained alot of toys and games for children and had many household items. It is an older house and the furniture is quite used and some coverings damaged, but functional. Location is great, close to shopping centers and very close to the Brighton Hotel and the beach. The house backs onto a park and playground area. One issue we were not happy with was cleanliness. The bathrooms, loungerooms, toilets and kitchen were clean, but the bedrooms were not with really dirty floors. In the main bedroom with the ensuite bathroom, the wardrobes were full of dust and cobwebs, the floors dirty and sadly when we were checking the drawers before leaving, found a used sanitary pad in the drawer next to the bed. Made us feel sick that we had been sleeping next to it. We did the right thing and removed it, but if we are paying $300 for cleaners, then we expect a clean house. The outside of the house could do with a good clean up, with huge spiderwebs around a lot of the windows. We feel we left the house in a significantly cleaner state than when we found it, as we vacuumed the floors and wardrobes. This definitely reflected in our rating for cleanliness. We've tried to be fair in how we scored the other questions, as overall we did have an enjoyable stay.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our stay in Seacliff. Plenty of provisions were supplied. BBQ a great size .The Pool and Park next door were very popular with Children. Beds were comfortable but an extra blanket for some would have been appreciated for cooler nights. Our only complaint is that house needs a thorough clean. Under beds, skirtings, window and door screens were very dirty,
