    The curtains in the bedroom were too transparent compared to what I'm used to

    Beautiful house. Very clean and accommodating. Would definitely stay here again.

    The two single chairs are not comfortable at all. High furniture works for everyone but low furniture isn’t good for tall guests (especially older guests). They were far too soft and not ideal when spending 12 hours inside due to poor weather. The door onto the patio needs fixing - difficult to open and close. No manual for coffee machine. Decor in master bedroom is great but then is let down in second bedroom. It won’t always be kids staying in this room. Curious why 2nd bedroom wasn’t made up as a queen on arrival when booking was for 3 guests. Dish rack would be handy for drying dishes. Guess won’t always use the dishwasher People at the Golf course park in the parking space for guests. Some little cards for guests would be handy to place on vehicles that do this

    Property was lovely, very high end facilities, quiet.

    Nothing to dislike about the apartment, it exceeded our expectations in every way.

    The apartment is huge and very well equipped. Full kitchen with cutlery, dinnerware, cooking equipment, serving bowls, variety of glasses including wine glasses - everything you would find in your kitchen at home. The porch is huge and wraps around the front of the apartment with plenty of space to spread out. Parking right out front, air conditioning in all rooms, and 2 big smart TVs. The 2 bathrooms are exceptional, with large showers (good water pressure) and rainfall shower heads. Location is right across the road from the golf club which serves breakfast and lunch, and a well stocked bar, perfect for a lazy afternoon. Supermarket is only a few minutes drive down the road, and Nelson Bay is only 10 minutes away. Salamander Bay is a much quieter location than very busy Nelson Bay.

    Perhaps a little more attention to the cleaning of floors.

    The apartment was very comfortable and warm as the weather is getting cooler. Sitting area was spacious and beds very comfortable. Kitchen had everything we required. Even though we were within a golf resort, the location was very quiet.

    I wasn't sure where I was supposed to park. The other properties on site had a numbered parking space

    The property and rooms were excellent. It was indeed "luxurious". Big spacious living room, with a really nice wrap around balcony. Bathrooms were huge with a rainfall shower head. Kitchen was large and it was a good space to entertain guests
