Great house in great location and pet friendly

House in great walking location to all that Torquay offers. We had two dogs which the house catered for well. The dogs slept on outside decking and the dogs loved their morning walk on the dog friendly beach.

Fabulous place to stay

The property was perfect for us. Had everything we needed. Was great that we could take our 2 dogs (who loved the garden) which was very secure and a great space for them to run around in! Beds very comfortable and nice pillows! Slept well! Would love to go back!

Comfortable and cosy

Great dog yard, secure. Did find a white tail spider. Would be good to have a tv upstairs. Upstairs shower leaked. More comfy chairs outside like a hammock. But over all, decent.

Great location and lovely backyard

We enjoyed our stay, the property was as described. Us and our 2 small dogs liked the backyard. The living area is quite small but the undercover patio adds to the space. Improvements - maybe an update of crockery and glassware and bedside power points in main bedroom - only point was in the middle behind the bed. Awkward for phone charging.

Perfect house for family getaway

We had a wonderful stay at Ananda - perfect for the adults, kids and dogs! Was lovely having linen and towels included. Lots of space, and very clean. Appreciated all the extra touches like shampoo/conditioner, soap, kitchen essentials, bikkies, boardgames and dog bowls. The dogs loved the enclosed yard. So close to Taylor Park, the beach, cafes, supermarket and surf shops. Could walk everywhere. Can't wait to come back again!

We really enjoyed our stay, appreciated being able to have our two dogs with us, the enclosed yard was perfect for them. Plus is only a couple of streets away from the beach. The house has everything needed for a comfortable stay, thank you!
