Salmon Row @ Smiths Summer

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: House is in the perfect location. Lovely quiet street. Kitchen and bbq were spotless and really well stocked with plates cutlery bowls etc. downsides were state of deep cleanliness - thick dust on all surfaces,, filthy flyscreens thousands of cobwebs and spiders throughout, and sliding doors almost impossible to open and close due to build up of grit and sand.Finally: what kind of holiday rental has no wifi??? Particularly when the whole street is in a 3/4/5G blackhole for both optus and telstra. A weekend i can deal with... 9 days without internet for 2 adults and two teens is near impossible. When i emailed agent to find out if there was any wofi i never got a response. Pretty average.

Great location

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: A short walk to the beach so it's easy to just walk back for lunch or get the board. Clean, well equipped kitchen, plenty of utensils etc. Living room and decks are nice with good natural light. Garage is large with plenty of height if you have boards or kayak on the roof. Just needs an outdoor shower and new wheels on the sliding doors.

Old and tired - disappointing

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property was in need of upgrade and good clean. Windows did not close, mould on internal window sills. No heating down stairs. chairs in kitchen covered in stains. BBQ rusted out and dirty. Floor had been given a quick sweep but was still dusty around all the furniture and positively grotty at the back of furniture (found a scrunchie behind the bedside table along with lots of dirt). Roller door to garage cluncky and remote did not work. Garage ceiling has large mould spots and shows signs of water damage from upstairs bathroom / toilet. We have stayed in these units and even the house that existed on the block prior to them being built for many years. This is the worst experience we have had. Great location but the owners need to put some money into the unit if they wish to continue renting it out. I would be embarrassed to rent this out in its current condition at any price. (it was not cheap). We experienced and arctic blast whilst staying and could not fully close the bathroom window or some of the others due to corrosion. No room in the kitchen cupboards to put our groceries as they were all full with the owners food.

Disappointing…

Our family of 6 spent 3 nights here and were not at all impressed with the state of the property. The previous occupants left dog poo throughout the backyard and a large bag full of dog poo sitting at the back door that we had to dispose of. This was nothing however compared to the interior. This house is full of mould. There is a large patch of it on the garage ceiling (along with what appears to be significant water damage) it is also growing on the front door, over all of the window frames and blinds and some of the door frames. The smell was so overwhelming and unpleasant, and we were so concerned about the health risks of staying in such a mouldy environment that we kept all of the windows open for the entire duration of our stay (which was not at all practical or convenient given the very cold outside temperatures) I emailed the agents on our second day there to let them know and sent photos of all the mould but disappointingly, 3 days later, I am still yet to receive a reply. On top of this, the dishes were not washed properly, the bunk beds are not stable and the upstairs television frequently loses reception. It’s also worth noting that you cannot get 4G reception inside the house. The only redeeming feature of this house is its location. It is an easy 2 minute walk to Smiths Beach, which would be ideal during summer when getting a car park is a nightmare. The location alone however does not justify the $300+ per night that we paid for our stay. We feel it was overpriced for the poor condition of the house and would not return.

Simple Yet Cosy

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: I enjoyed my stay at this property. It was nice and clean. The best thing is it is only takes 1minute walk to the beach. It will be great if the house have an internet connection/wifi as the network coverage in the house area was so terrible. Overall it was 9 out of 10!

House was clean and had everything we needed. If I had to say one thing for improvement it would be new mattresses upstairs, a bit uncomfortable. We will definitely be back!

Think again

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Given the extra competition for holiday houses this summer, we were grateful for this stay. Apart from that, we were very disappointed with this house. It had broken furniture, windows difficult to open, muddy footprints inside the house upon arrival, food scraps still in the dishwasher and sand still in the bath. The house has potential to be great but just hadn’t been maintained well. Given its condition it was well over priced.

Perhaps a little more attention is needed in the cleaning, fresh doona covers wouldn't go astray. Secure backyard for our puppy which was great. Location awesome!!! We would definitely book again.

One of the best holidays my family and I have had. The house suited everyone’s needs including our two children. It’s a two minute walk to the beach with a lovely cafe around the corner. It was near perfection and we can’t wait for the new year to do it again!
