'Rubys Retreat', 44 Achilles Street - animali domestici, aria condizionata e parcheggio in barca

A LOT MORE Information is needed about this property for guests to make informed choice to stay and hire - it is not well sign posted - it is very difficult to see the house number when it faces down the street on the mail box instead of out towards the street; the driveway is not open and easily identified and is very steep and could be tricky to navigate in a bigger vehicle; specify that air con is only in the living area; advise linen is required in the listing before people book; say no basics in kitchen like sugar and a tea towel; the property needs a thorough clean - corners of rooms need attention; gaps in floor boards that you can see through to the ground; exhaust fan in the separate toilet is very noisy; all exhaust fans in bathrooms need cleaning; front screen door doesn't lock & screen door in back bedroom has no lock - not secure; need handrail on other side of front steps; we were told there were 2 queen sized beds - 1 queen 1 double; the double bed wasn't the best - too low; there were far too many messages from Real Estate agent - I would prefer 1 email with all necessary information rather than multiple messages each day e.g. not aware of needing linen until 2 weeks before stay; not aware of having to put the bins out until AFTER we had left Nelson Bay; even though we had a great time with friends I would not book this property again

Comfortable, clean, pet friendly.

This beach cottage is comfortable and accommodating. If you love walking, you can walk everywhere from here. We hardly used the car except for shopping. Great swims at Shoal Bay. Shoal bay shops are a 15-20 min flat walk through the reserve and beside the bay, Nelson Bay a 30 min walk. Mostly flat. The only down side was the kitchen facilities were a bit light on, with no pantry items at all (bring salt etc) or washing up stuff. I would also suggest you bring sharp knives and a good pan. Apart from this a wonderful stay, very clean and comfortable.

We booked the house originally as it was pet friendly and the photos and description of the house. Unfortunately our 17y old Maltees passed away 2 weeks prior to us leaving to go to the house. The house expectations
