- "Peaceful place to stay with amazing sun rises" - "Unfortunately we were unable to stay due to Cyclone activity in North Queensland. At late notice, Matthew willingly processed a refund for us. Would definitely stay at his property in the future if the opportunity arose. " - "This house is in a truly stunning location, right on the beach. The beach itself is peaceful and beautiful — perfect for long walks or just sitting and watching the waves. The house has everything you need, including a handy granny flat with its own toilet, which made things really convenient.The kitchen was well-equipped, and the space was clean and comfortable for our stay. The only small downsides were the internet, which was a bit patchy, and the TV, which barely worked — but with a beach like that out front, we didn’t really mind.Would definitely recommend for a relaxing, beachside getaway."
