  The house was well positioned , spacious and very clean, unfortunately the wi fi was poor cutting out regularly while watching movies or using lap top , also no vacuum cleaner in the house as our stay was for 2 weeks , a regular clean up was required we had to purchase one ourselves . Management were informed .

  Our stay at Captains hideaway was lovely , our only issue was navigating the shower , large shower head in the ceiling , difficult if not requiring to wash hair , shower taps on opposite wall to shower door , so have to reach in to turn on and get wet with cold burst of water before temp regulated .

  This property was excellent. We enjoyed the view from the back door. The house was very clean. Upon arrival there was fresh bread and local jam.
  I did have trouble finding the WI fi password as there was no "house rules" book.
  The only additional thing for the house would be a dryer as it is hard to get clothes dry in the winter.
  Overall the place was fantastic and we would like to return

  Damian B from Edithvale, VIC recommends this vacation rental

  The house was well appointed, nicely furnished and very comfortable and clean. The owners have put a lot of thought into what a short term tenant might need while staying. Location was great too.
  
  I had to get my tech hat on to sort a couple of the TV's out as HDMI connections were unplugged downstairs, but that was probably just the previous renters.
  
  The included wifi access worked, but was not brilliant, but that is indicative of Optus 4G in the area. If you are on Telstra, you're better off using your phone to hotspot. It was not working when I arrived at all, but a reboot of the router in the master bedroom fixed it.
  
  Unfortunately, there was no "house manual" so we had to hassle the booking agent regarding a few things like mooring location. There was no security door key for the front door and the agent also assisted with this which was appreciated.
  
  The neighbours were very friendly, and were content with our kids playing in the court which was greatly appreciated.
  
  We would definitely go back to this property as long as the house manual is there!
