MALOLO, MACMASTERS BEACH - RELAXED COASTAL RETREAT, 500M WALK TO BEACH, WIFI

Mouldy mattresses under bunks in outhouse- put under house by agent. Oven not working-agent promised to send someone out to fix but no one came. Inside main house really only accommodates 6 adults comfortably. The 2 living areas are not together & only one of them would just fit 6. The dining table would only fit 6 people-8 at a stretch. Upstairs bathroom & downstairs bathroom/laundry only has space to hang 1 bath towel each. Screen doors leading out to deck need replacing as they fall off the rails constantly. Sun lounges filthy- cannot sit on them. Rotting window sill in upstairs bathroom & front door extremely hard to open. Outside travertine near bedroom covered in mould? Screens & window sills filthy, especially the laundry door. Outside lounge area fab but is different to photos on the website. Lucky it was great weather as we could all sit out here together and chat/eat.Outside dining furniture setting very tired. The whole place needs a deep clean, de-clutter(2 chairs in front of fire in dining room-why when you cater to big groups?) a lick of paint, couches & bed heads cleaned. Lucky we did not need the outdoor heaters as they were rusted out. Sadly would not stay again at the price.

Lovely outdoor sitting area. But, the tiny TV room can only fit 4 adults comfortably in a house that accommodates 12 people. Insufficient fans/aircon. Old AV system, so no Bluetooth speakers etc. No pantry and no view. However, it’s well positioned and takes 5minutes to walk to the beach. Easy to get supplies 10 minutes drive.

Great outdoor dining/entertaining area. The bunk room was a great retreat for the kids. Short walk to the beach and cafe

The location was advertised as dog friendly, but it wasn’t . There is a wire fence between your property and the neighbours, they had two dogs that understandably barked whenever we came out onto the porch or the outhouse, which meant we couldn’t let our dog out in the morning, as the barking was constant. Therefore I had to take my dog for a walk to the beach each morning at 6am , so the rest of our family could sleep . Their porch also sits right on the fence line of your property, so if the dogs were in the garden or on their porch , they could see us and bark . I have absolutely no problem with dogs but I don’t think you should advertise this property as dog friendly. I was happy to get home and sleep as I was exhausted.

The property had lots of beds and rooms, so we all felt like we had our own space. I think the property can sleep 10 people (including the sleep out) however we struggled to fit 4 (almost) adults in the lounge room to watch a movie. Great coffee machine and kitchen and outdoor space, I think the property would be AMAZING in summer.
