Guest Reviews

• Stephanie (10/5): Relaxing seaside location - Beautiful sea views, lovely apartment
• Peter (10/5): - Location was excellent the unit was large and all needed appliances provided. Outlook overlooking the beach was bonus. Nothing
• Helen (6/5): - Room was comfortable, but no personal contact with host at all. Only one tiny soap & one tiny shampoo for 2 adults for 2 days. Room wasn't serviced and no dry, clean towels provided. No milk in fridge & only 4 coffee pods for 2 day stay. Very dark path to our room & sensor lights not good.
• Jeff (10/5): - Great location, clean unit, easy check in
• Jo (9/5): Views for miles, great location. - Excellent location opposite the beach and walk to all amenities. Small touches from hosts to make stay enjoyable were great
• Lucy (10/5): - The retro themed apartment was so cozy!
• Robyn (10/5): Wished we could have stayed longer - Location and it was very comfortable and well equipped
• Koetsier (9/5): Thanks so much to amazing host. Wonderful location - Great location, terrific host and good facilities
• Carolyn (8/5): Beautiful central accommodation which is beautifully appointed. - The property was ideally situated on the Main Street of penguin. There were lots of memorabilia around to engage you with the area There were a few things missing like milk coffee pods, tissues
• Barbara (10/5): Beautiful place. Terry & Libby excellent hosts. Well done . Thank you for making our stay so enjoy -
• Graham (10/5): -
• Nadg63 (8/5): Pleasurable. - Very nice accomodation, very clean and tidy in an excellent location for exploring Penguin, walking to shops, restaurants etc. Nice to sit out on the front balcony watching the sun rising. The 2.30am goods train that noisily passed by pretty much out of the back bedroom window and the bin men/truck that were doing their rounds at 4.30am were a bit of a surprise .................... !
• Michelle (8/5): Limited sea view. - Nice homely atmosphere. Close to walking path, great bakery and other town facilities. Nicely appointed and furnished. Somewhat quaint and quirky. Good parking. Electric blanket and heated bathroom floor. Comfy bed. The little plate of welcome chocolates and sweets were a lovely touch. Labelling the room as ‘sea view’ is misleading. We booked on the sea view premise but were sorely disappointed. It should read ‘partial or limited sea view’. This studio, whilst lovely in itself, is on the ground floor with quite a high fence in the front. With only a small window to look out you can only see a partial sea view if you physically stand up and look out. You cannot sit, relax and enjoy the sea view. Sitting is too low and the only chairs at the window anyway are the dining chairs at the table. You must be upstairs in a more expensive unit to have any real decent view. If a caravan, coach or truck pull up outside as often happened when we were there, you really have no view at all. It is a long, large room with high ceiling so it takes quite some time to heat up with the sized heat pump that is installed. I would take a portable heater to use as well next time, especially in autumn, winter and spring. Be aware, there is no balcony or outside private area. The photos can be a little misleading if not studied well, as the upstairs apartments figure most prominently on the booking apps.

• Debbie (10/5): A beautiful way to stay at a beautiful location. Thank you - Great communication from the host. Everything was of high standard. Funky appartment. Amazing location. Perfect for what we needed. Only a small thing. Our towels were not nice and soft.
• Iuliia (10/5): Очень приятная хозяйка. Шикарные апартаменты, я в полном восторге! - Понравилось абсолютно все! Неплохо было бы добавить две бутылки воды, так как мы приехали поздно, магазины уже не работали, а своя вода почти закончилась.

• Jayne (9/5): - Lovely modern apartment with huge balcony with ocean views right in the heart of Penguin. Wish we could have stayed longer.
• Graeme (5/5): Disappointed in the cleanliness and care of the property. Nice location - Great location Property had to be vacuumed on arrival. Dryer filter was filthy and the door needs a thorough clean. Washing machine is out of balance and rocks noisily when in use. The sofa bed had no sheets on it. Some old, balled up, pilled ones were found in a wardrobe. The mattress on the sofa bed was also unbearably uncomfortable as the springs dig in to your body. There are no block out curtains so first light has everybody up. Chairs outside had to be cleaned of dirt and spiderwebs in order to use.

• Siew Yoong (10/5): Lovely beach walks - Nice water views. Lovely walks on the beach and track. Short walks to restaurants and cafes. Spacious, comfortable unit, quiet. Little things like no body wash and box of tissues. We had to buy them ourselves and the towels were really rough and scratchy.
• Patrick (10/5): -
• Debra (9/5): -
• Joanne (10/5): Other than that, we would definitely stay there again. - Location Location Location, was brilliant, couldn’t be any better, right in the heart of town, yet quiet. Bathroom, shower, perfect. Kitchenette was good, no stove, oven or microwave, but it had a wok which we could be creative with. As tall people, we loved the height of the kitchen bench. Loved the retro decor, enjoyed playing some 45s records! Our only minor negative, considering the size of the room is that it could do with a King Bed. My husband & I are tall people & there aren’t enough King Beds in accommodation places.
• JILL (9/5): Excellent - Location and views More heating
• Butler (4/5): I thought it was a motel of some sort not a room joined to a residence - Was on the bottom floor joined to a residence. The ocean was behind a fence

With a large, airy, open plan lounge/kitchen/dining area, every room was immaculate, beautifully appointed and well-equipped with everything you might need for a very comfortable stay.
