Great location on the reef beach and quiet
There is plenty of space and 3 good size bedrooms and well equipped kitchen and open living area with outside undercover area for eating out on barmy nights. Great shower although water pump gets noisy. Fantastic location with tidal flows over the reef, variety of birds and restful seas.

Unfortunately are stay this weekend did not live up to our expectations, when we arrived and the lawns and gardens were untidy the exterior of the house was dirty and the inside wasn’t to a standard expected of shorterm accommodation. Lucky we took our own linen including blankets as they we disgusting. Definitely won’t be staying at this location again

View was beautiful and very quiet location.
The view and location was fantastic! House is tired inside but overall perfect for a family or two families. A few improvements such as new cutlery, a new microwave, improved locks on doors ( can only be locked and unlocked by key, unsafe in an emergency). Would definitely stay again with quiet beach as your backyard and endless rock pools to play in.

Istana house Point turton
House was nice and roomy nice private coastal area, quiet and relaxing. House not so clean, linen that was supplied was all Stained and not very inviting. Working vacuum cleaner wouldve been good. Besides that, would stay again , if I knew it had been cleaned properly.
