Blacksmiths Beach Shack

Lovely place for one or two families with young kids. Host was great to deal with.

The floor wasn’t that clean when we went in , bed covers and blankets don’t look like been washed.sofar a little too old no towel no soap . Doors are not that clean I am sorry to say all this .over all the cleaning doesn’t look like professional cleaning

Clean, stocked with essentials (games, bbq, aircon,, close to Swansea Belmont Surf Club, Orana Hotel, Grannies Lagoon and only 2 hours from Sydney!

Not as advertised and unsafe! The ad said there was a pool, linen/towels provided and a playground on the property. The pictures advertised in the ad was not the same as the condition that we met. The backyard fence and side gate had large gaps/holes that the children could fit through, no advertised beach chairs and also large gaps under the house. The yard had garden rubbish piled up. Outdoor furniture, toys and cubby house had major wear and tear from age. There were no water views as stated in the add. The house fuse stopped when we tried to use the vacuum cleaner, so I checked where the fuse box was and the side gate fell on me. The washing machine left the clothes dirtier than went in. The dishwasher not cleaning well. Laundry sink was not attached and could be easily moved by the 2year old. The bedroom cupboards floors dirty/dusty. Uneven floors unmarked. The shower was not great and no floor drains in bathroom. Damages to walls, doors, blinds and window latches throughout. Broken step on ladder to top bunk bed. Bed sheets marked/stained. Only one hand towels and one floor mat provided, no towels. A/C only in the lounge/common area. Bedrooms are fans only. And note you will be charged an international transaction fee as the owner uses VRBO.

A beautiful place to stay. Great location as it is close to the supermarket and the beach. The host is very kind and friendly.
