Gerringong house
This house has a lot to offer but misses a bit in terms of finer details. Also it should be noted the outdoor area is totally enclosed. (Roof & walls) Ie: no grass or garden views, or sky views from the master bedroom.

Mini Getaway
This was a great house for my extended family and I. There were plenty of bedrooms, living spaces and bathrooms for everyone. Some of the furniture is quite outdated and could do with a freshen up. The outside area is spacious but definitely needs a hose down and clean. It was very dusty and dirty so we weren’t able to use it as much as we would have liked to. Overall this was a great place that worked for our little family getaway!

Aptly named "Home away from Home"
This property had everything needed plus more, there were several extra pillows and blankets if needed, which weren't because the air conditioning worked perfectly. I didn't see the table tennis table but everyone loved the pool table and there was a cupboard full of cards and other games to keep everyone entertained. Also LOVED the music USB. Lots of T.V.'s so you could watch what you wanted without interfering with anyone else. Plenty of room. Great location.

Nice house, very easy to look after. Not too far to walk to Werri. Spa needed some attention when we arrived, but otherwise house was clean, neat and tidy.

Plenty of room
We selected this property based on the facilities and living spaces so that lived up to our expectations. My family enjoyed playing pool and the spa however the spa had sand in it so looked like it hadn't been cleaned after the last time someone was there. The cleanliness of the rest of the house was also an issue. There were spiders throughout the house. It seemed like the house hadn't been occupied for a while so the spiders had taken over. If this was the case, it should have been cleaned prior to our arrival. The bedside tables had a layer of dust/girt so they couldn't be used. The outside table and chairs were also extremely dirty so we did not use them either. Being close to the beach we thought there would be no need for air conditioning but due to the layout of the home and the fact that it has a very high retaining wall out the back there is very little air flow. There are fans but it was still very hot in the bedrooms. We enjoyed our stay but there were elements that spoiled our time at Home away from Home. It definitely did not feel like 'home'.

Would definitely stay here again!
Everything about this experience was perfect! Reasonably priced, the house has everything we needed. Linen included, fresh towels for everyone. Even the spa was prepared before our arrival! The agents were extremely helpful down to the last detail. Would recommend anyone to stay here. 10 out of 10!
