Hideaway Retreat

This place in no way represented the photographs online. This was such a disappointment as we were so very excited about our trip. We arrived at the property and drove around twice as we thought we must have gone to the wrong address!! The bottom set of apartments, which we stopped at and walked around were in a state of disrepair with tools, curtains and rubble strewn around. We then drove back up to the main area and house, to be told that we were not expected, even though this had been booked 3 months prior to our arrival and i had email and printed confirmation with me. I was shown to an apartment that I was told they could, 'clean it up for me, as it was not that dirty'!! It was in no way up to my expectations or what was depicted on their website. They had tradies on site working, which I understood, but in no way was this property suitable to be inhabited. I was also told that if they had known we were coming the lawns would have been mown!! Such a disappointment, and after a trip into the Tourist Bureau we found suitable alternative accommodation. Please do not get caught out and I would definitely not recommend this property.

Hideaway is quiet, except for the rooster, clean and comfortable. The pool looks bigger in the photos, but is only a plunge pool. Stove and microwave dated, but owners in process of updating. Driveway was narrow and needed a lot of attention. Definitely need own car to get there and around and only self catering on the property. Owners approachable and helpful, a

Cockroaches everywhere. They offer wifi but you have to drive up the hill to get it. Basic amenities for the price. Awful stay. Roads not maintained and potholes everywhere. Expensive accommodation and you have to pay for washing machine. Place up for sale. Charge for everything.
