Guest Reviews

• Carol (9/5): Fabulous Apartment in a Great Location - Spacious apartment with lovely views of the town and the bay from inside the apartment as well as from the large balcony. The modern kitchen is fully equipped and the spacious bathroom offers soft fluffy towels and quality toiletries. The laundry is a bonus and the outside back yard includes a BBQ. The position is ideal, it's an easy walk to the town centre for shopping and to the coastline walking track. We enjoyed a very comfortable and delightful 3 days here.
• Lupytha (10/5): We loved our stay at Apartment on James Street nice! - Great location, very spacious and the view was amazing!!
• Linda (8/5): -
• Isabelle (10/5): - Exceeded our expectations in the space, facilities, view and cleanliness. Can't rate our stay highly enough 11/10 Nothing
• Alicia (8/5): Very enjoyable would stay again - Central location, well furnished Could very easily hear the upstairs neighbours (they weren’t intentionally noisy) talking kids crying and walking. Could do with some insulation/soundproofing.
• Steve & Inez (9/5): Perfect place to stay. Would love to have stayed longer. - Loved staying here. Beautiful large apartment with stunning views. Well appointed. Would love to have stayed longer. Cute town & lovely beaches. The shutters were fiddly & tricky to slide - looked great but curtains would be easier.
• Elicia (9/5): - Great location. Everything was clean and comfortable. The oven did not work, but we used the air fryer from the upstairs apartment on the first night and then we were provided with an air fryer the following night.
• Smitha (10/5): Modern clean property - Modern clean property. None
• Susan (9/5): Comfortable and caters for all needs - Space, clean, up to date, everything we needed The only place where there is a washing machine and no washing powder - not a buggy but given there was so much else to like.
• Geoffrey (10/5): Excellent place to stay, in a good position. - Very well fitted out, comfortable and lovely view. Rough driveway.
• Luke (8/5): -
• Mick (10/5): -
• AINING (10/5): -
• virginia (8/5): Relaxing and comfortable - Location, size of the property and its facilities On warm night it would be great to have a fan. Also could you pls replace the large plastic chopping board. Everytime we used it strands of plastic would come off the board with the knife and end up in our food. Encountered this 2 years in a row.
• Sunil (10/5): -
• Helen (9/5): All good - All good The shutters
• ANITA (10/5): Lovey short stay in the beautiful Bicheno - Amazing location, beautiful views, stunning apartment.
• Anna-Lisa (9/5): Can’t wait to come back, but for longer next time. - Clean and comfortable - great location. Needs a dryer. Carpet must be hard to keep clean in a beach town.
• Katrina (7/5): Lovely beachside location, lots to do close by. - Direct ocean view with no buildings in front. Quiet location, spacious. We loved Bicheno the town, walks and proximity to Freycinet. Similar comments to other reviews re no noise insulation between upstairs and downstairs apartments. We were fortunate the guests above were not up late or early. For the price the amenities in the kitchen were not at level expected. Both fry pans need replacing - non stick coating has peeled off in many places.
• Terese (9/5): Very comfortable with a touch of luxury. - It had a nice location to the coast. There was a lovely view. Very close walking to everything. it catered for every need. The driveway needs repair. It’s difficult to navigate for no damage to a hire car.
• Sue (7/5): Great location and close to town - View was amazing We could hear the people upstairs
• Reva (9/5): -
• Mariah (10/5): -
• Hassan (10/5): - The apartment was spacious and clean. We can see the ocean from the balcony and we walked everywhere. Nothing
• Ann (10/5): Beautiful place to stay thank you and very comfortable - Loved the choice of rooms both with a King Size bed. Awesome view Ducted heating Everything we needed Tv in bedrooms and lounge area Parking on the hill
• Kylie (3/5): Would not book again. We left a night early just to have some quiet time without listening to upstairs. Would not recomm - Location, comfortable beds, roomy The fact it said entire home when booking when there were two couples above us - so it’s a little misleading and should read “entire apartment” shared home. The above apartment you could hear EVERYTHING. Each time they moved a chair, opened a door, walked, talked and the rest. It certainly did not feel private at all and we heard everything!
• Lucy (10/5): -
• Siobahn (10/5): - Very clean, great location with sea views. Walking distance to shops. Nothing
• Lynette (8/5): Apartment on James did not disappoint. I would highly recommend . - The presentation, size and comfort of the apartment was excellent. The location and views were amazing. The bed was super comfortable. First impressions of the entrance and stairwell appeared to be somewhat unkempt . The stairs are quite a pinch and definitely not for anyone with mobility issues. The apartment is beautifully decorated yet lacks a decent sized refrigerator. A small bar fridge would not be enough should a family be staying for any longer than a weekend.
• Farrow (10/5): All in all very comfortable and exceeded my expectations. - The view was amazing. Loved looking out over the bay. Central heating worked well, place heated quickly. Loved that there was a cotton blanket option for the bed, as I prefer blanket to quilt. Kitchen was fabulous, plenty of space and utensils to cook a great meal. Good only one flight of stairs. Even though it had a one unit above hardly heard anything. Would definitely stay again Minor, difficult to open sliding door to laundry, plus a wind block along back door would be good. Also bathroom sink didn’t have a plug
• Shaelene (10/5): Would definitely recommend. Great place for families to stay - Great location, easy parking, lovely place, very open with beautiful views No clothes dryer - but we used the clothes airer and put in verandah. Coastal breeze and sunshine did the job
• Arkadii (8/5): It is a nice place to stay but really expensive in my opinion. - The apartment is great and new, however, for this amount of money I would expect some personal touches on arrival. The BBQ was dirty and we cannot cook anything unfortunately.
• Luke (8/5): Amazing location with great views and Fairy penguins walking done the road. Equipped with everything you need for your s - Location, size of the apartment, it had everything you needed. It was noisy when people were up stairs. The bed wasn’t very comfortable and the pillows were the same.
• Christine (9/5): Superb -
• Patrick (8/5): Very good -
• Kathryn (8/5): A very enjoyable stay, Thank you. - The beds and pillows were very good, allowing a good night's sleep. The shower products were great. The shower head was also good. The kitchen was well set up for our needs. We could not close the key safe after opening it, despite trying several times.
• Alan (9/5): Superb - Spacious Light Balcony Big beds Best place we've stayed in Tassie
• Lauran (7/5): Carpets and matting needed to be cleaner - Nice property shame garden area wasn't more inviting Modern spacious comfortable
• Vikki (9/5): a great place for a holiday. - Great views from the front deck. Spacious, spotless and comfortable. The unit had everything needed for a stay in Bicheno.
• Yan (10/5): We had an enjoyable stay! - Great location, nice decoration with home feeling, large apartment, kitchen was stocked with everything we need. Nothing to complain.
• John (10/5): Exceptional - The pictures do not do it justice. Lovely spacious, well equipped apartment. Great location.
• Rodney (10/5): Exceptional -
• Tracy (10/5): Highly recommended. - Great views. Very spacious. Very comfortable bed. Very clean. Fantastic shower.
• Nicole (7/5): Good - Good location Has views Modern bathroom and kitchen Needs some updating re carpet and furniture but bedding etc great
• Lily (10/5): Exceptional -
• Wendy (8/5): Very good - Look there's nothing wrong with this apartment. Spacious, modern and comfortable. Good location although I'm not sure which location in Bicheno wouldn't be a good location. We had a great time but found the apartment a little impersonal and massive for the 2 beds. More flexibility on sleeping arrangements for the price would have been good. First night noone was above, 2nd night three adults checked in and it was very noisy. I don't think they were really noisy but the floor is rattly. It was not awful, but we've had much better stays.
• Donna (10/5): Exceptional -
• Adam (8/5): We all had a great time and loved the location. - The location was really good. You can hear everything from the up stairs unit. There must be an old laundry Shute between an upstairs bedroom and the one under it and you can hear everything.
• Walker (10/5): Exceptional - Fantastic ocean view, well presented property. Wish we could have stayed longer.
• Karthik (10/5): Perfect accomodation for a family stay. - Great accomodation, very spacious. Furniture was very comfortable. Location right in the middle of Bicheno. Nothing to say against the property.
• Kay (10/5): Exceptional - First impressions was Wow! So big and comfortable with fantastic views from both inside and from the large balcony with everything you need for a comfortable stay.
• Leanne (9/5): A whale's eye view - The location, the beds & the view. all that and so reasonably priced. Spotted a whale from the living room. nothing not to like
• Tenniel (10/5): Convenient location, stunning view, comfortable! We would definitely stay again! - The property was comfortable with a beautiful view! It was a convenient short walk to town to local cafes and bars Nothing
• Jodie (10/5): Exceptional -
• Nirmani (9/5): Superb -
• Collette (10/5): Exceptional -
• Fiona (8/5): Very good - Comfortable and roomy. Plenty of seating in the lounge. Need some microwave dishes and sharper knives in the kitchen.
• Routledge (10/5): Slice of paradise at Apartments on James - Highly recommend for a relaxing beach side get away. The apartment is very comfortable and well set up. I had some issues accessing the keys inside the lock box. However, staff were promp answering calls for assistance and were able to resolve my questions immediately.
• Gary (9/5): Wish we had longer than the one night stay. - Property presented well.had everything we needed.central location,off street parking, clean and great views Nothing
• Jo (8/5): Very good -
• Jan (9/5): Superb -
• Josephine (9/5): Superb -
• Pamela (8/5): We were high and dry and warm. - Great view and ducted ac worked very well. Entry is up a very narrow steep staircase. Only one bathroom available and located away from bedrooms. Only three chairs at table so the four of us couldn’t eat together. Doggy door to backyard not lockable and large enough for someone to access the property. Rock basket at front of the building on a lean so I wouldn’t advise parking near it.
• Lynda (10/5): I would highly recommend this property if you are staying in Bicheno. Close to lobster shack and shops. Very large comf - Large open apartment with amazing views N/a
• John (6/5): Comfortable but not high end - Kitchen was well equipped and bed was comfortable. Nice big lounge and balcony with lovely views. There was no coffee table at all in the apartment. For a two bedroom apartment with a large lounge and balcony, we had to use a chair each from the dining setting to rest our coffee cup or glass on. It was unlevel and unstable. Also the dining table only had 3 chairs for a supposedly high end 4 person holiday rental. At more than $200 per night, perhaps a trip to Fantastic Furniture might now be possible.
• Leonie (10/5): A fantastic and pleasant stay - Just a fantastic apartment . Spacious , clean , all facilities, great views from the large balcony , great location to commercial areas. Great shower too. Minor but two large holes need to be repaired in the bitumen driveway access.
• Tracey (10/5): Exceptional - It was just great, just parked car when arrived and walked everywhere. Everything so close.
• Sherrie (8/5): Very good -
• Krista (8/5): Very good -
• Madonna (7/5): Good -
• Free (9/5): Spacious and well laid out apartment in an ideal location - Spacious and well laid out apartment. the location was ideal for attractions at Bicheno and for exploring the Frycinet peninsula. Many of the restaurants and bakeries in Bicheno close very early (compared to in cities)
• Jacqueline (9/5): Loved our stay here - beautiful apartment in a great location by the coast. - Large apartment, very modern and comfortable and presented to a high standard. Loved the large balcony with its gorgeous sea view - used this every day for breakfast. Also, we were in a convenient location, with a short walk to the coast and the town. A few basic amenities were missing - place mats for the table, and a colander in the kitchen. Would have been useful too to have some coat pegs near the front door.
• Deborah (8/5): Coastal Retreat - Very roomy apartment great views , comfy king bed , kitchen well stocked and washing machine all you need to unwind for a couple of days to explore the surrounding attractions. There are a few stairs to the entrance apartment .
• Brenda (10/5): Thoroughly enjoyed staying in this spacious apartment. Kitchen well stocked. Modern and clean. Backyard space and a wond - Spacious, clean, luxurious and an amazing view. No iron or ironing board.
• Babsp (8/5): Very good - Lovely view. Good location. A couple of minor maintenance issues reported to property manager. No acknowledgement.
• Sharon (5/5): Passable - Location and views were great Drain overflowed in shower and no plug or grate in bathroom sink, shutters were hard to open/close and outdoor light shined straight the entire night and couldn’t be turned off, furnishing becoming old and damaged.
• Todd (9/5): Excellent, spacious and well-appointed townhouse with beautiful views. - The location is ideal, moments from the beach, shops and restaurants. Huge space.
• Ben (10/5): Exceptional -
• Helen (10/5): Perfect place for us to explore Bicheno for the first time - thank you Emily - The accommodation was in the perfect location and had everything we needed for our 2 night stay - couldn't have asked for more :)
• Janine (8/5): Very good -
• Huimin (9/5): Superb - The property is in a luxury size, very tidy and clean.
• Julia (9/5): Fabulous comfortable apartment with great views and easy access to Bicheno -
• Mark (5/5): Noisy Neighbours spoiled the stay - The place was nice no complaints about this, nice views, very homely, had all you could want and a little more Bad communication from owner. Then when you arrive it’s a bit of issue lugging your gear up a narrow staircase, especially if you are elderly. At around 4pm we had people turn up staying in the upstairs unit - And all we could hear for just over 2 hours was people walking around like a heard of elephants. It was by this time we had enough, and I sent a message to the owner! It again started again for my wife’s elderly parents at about 5am and continued on into the morning. We were all awake because of the people upstairs just after 7am no one could sleep any further. All I can say is that had the owner told us of this situation we probably wouldn’t have stayed there. Adding insult to injury is the fact that we had made arrangements for the owner to organise a seafood platter on arrival. This was because we were married 2 days prior and I wanted to surprise my new wife - but when we got there nothing. When I asked her about it- I was basically told we could go and get it ourselves- I certainly won’t be staying there again.
• Ralph (9/5): Superb - Lots of space and view
• Margaret (9/5): Superb - The whole apartment is bigger than expected. Other than staircase up to apartment, everything else is really good. Highly recommended 👍😃
• Cheryl (9/5): Superb - Extra services offered by host which was appreciated and utilised.
• Celia (7/5): First impressions were good but disappointed overall for what we paid. - Location was fine although we found it difficult to locate the right property at first. Two apartments in the building, ours was up one flight of stairs. Apartment was nicely laid out, clean and comfortable. The gardens surrounding the property, including a rear deck were very neglected, giving the wrong impression for what was rented as a high end property at a high end price. We reported this to the agents who handle the property before writing this review so hopefully it has been improved. Also there was a huge kitchen but not very well fitted out with cutlery, utensils, saucepans, crockery and glassware etc. A tiny microwave that would have been more suited to a caravan. A large range type cooker but no instructions.
• Audra (9/5): Beautiful Bicheno - Ducted heating was great. Lovely beds, very comfortable. Beautiful ocean view. Very pretty area. Loved the nearby whalers lookout walk. Great local bakery. Excellent location to visit Freycinet from.
• Joan (10/5): Exceptional - Everything. It was presented beautifully we loved it. Nothing
• Fay (10/5): A STUNNING 2 NIGHTS IN BICHENO - Apartment on James exceeded our expectations. This property is absolutely gorgeous. The attention to detail in every room is top class. Emily has thought of everything to make your stay as comfortable as possible. And the unspoilt view of the ocean from the spacious balcony is stunning. I can’t recommend this property highly enough. Thank you also for the uno cards which we greatly enjoyed. Don’t even look anywhere else if you’re visiting Bicheno. You won’t find any better. Congratulations Emily We didn’t stay long enough
• Simon (10/5): Superb property with everything you need for a relaxing break - Fantastic - spacious, well furnished, good outdoor space and good views in a great location! Nothing! But a tumble dryer would have been useful.
• David (9/5): Perfect - Great location easy walk to town & the Lobster Shack The shutters. Difficult to open & shut.
• Graeme (9/5): Superb -
• David (8/5): great break in a very lovely unit in a very nice place - location great 5 minute walk to shops ,both bedrooms were a decent size and both king beds, kitchen was great 900mm electric/gas stove and worked even better once we found where the cutoff switch was, big shower with a rain head shower unit was great as there was plenty of water pressure and three decent size TV sets Being a bottom floor of two units wasn't ideal mainly for the last two nights of our stay the people above us sounded like they were rearranging the whole unit all night long ,not the most considerate of guests.
• Susan (8/5): Fabulous views. Delightful location - Sensational location good air conditioning Rough driveway. Very noisy with people in the upstairs. Sounded like a heard of elephants
