Boatshed

Cylinders Beach a short walk away. Bus stop conveniently located out the front.
IRL Boatshed is not as it appears in the listing, it is a much older & sadder. It is also not a 'rare find'. Although the place was tidy, it was not clean - it felt ick sitting on the lounge, opening up cupboards etc.

Each and every room & cupboard had its own disgusting smell which was really hard to get rid off, especially at night as none of the windows/doors had screens. If each room wasn't closed up (and kept shut) by 4pm you were eaten alive by the island's mossi population. Mossi coils should have been supplied to kill the mossis AND hide the smells.

Other things that guests should be told:
- the house is on a shared block meaning that the neighbours are close, real close
- the 'breezeways' are actually outdoor hallways that connect separate dwellings eg. the upstairs bedroom is separate to the the lounge/kitchen and each of the bedrooms downstairs are stand alone, as is the bathroom
- much maintenance is needed - I shouldn't have to give Ray White a list! Take a walk through, turn on the lights, try the keys in the locks, turn the shower on.

I would not stay here again if you paid me to.

Beautiful home in a perfect location

Beautiful home in a perfect location

Good location, nicely presented and good for families but needs updates. Surface cleaning fine but maintenance and Spring Clean required. No keys left as indicated and had to chase them from real estate. No A/C on an unfortunately hot weekend. Could do with hooks and some hangers in the downstairs bedrooms. But an enjoyable stay.

Lovely house great outlook and living area
There was no gas for the cook too when we arrived

Bad rental. Bad agency. No working television (no reception, old analogue TV. Super cheap landlord). No wifi or internet. No phone reception. Not built in sections of the 'house'. Spiders.. MOZZIES. dirty property. Bad value. Good location if it was insulated or noise proofed. Will not return nor will I use agency again. Complained about tv and they were indifferent.

The property was suitable for our holiday but the cleaning of one bath room and toilet had not been carried out and were not in a good state.The washing machine was not working when we arrived and took nearly 2 weeks to be repaired.

Don't let the plain exterior fool you - this is a comfy holiday home with newly refurbished kitchen & bathrooms. The kids loved the 'treehouse' feel! No ocean view, but just a short stroll to Deadman's Beach. Recommended.
