Great location
We enjoyed our Easter holiday. The house was in a great location to the main street which was wonderful for walks!

Fabulous location! 5/5
Fabulous location walk to Main Street and beach. Lovely house with everything catered for. Fully fenced which is great for our pooch Rosie. We were there during a very hot weekend and the house was so love and airy and cool. Thanks again for a great stay!

Booking review
Relaxing, happy and wish it could have been a long stay
Was great for family that came over from the UK. My son-in-law was happy that everyone was under the same roof with 3 bedrooms and all the comforts of home. They had electric blankets on all beds, heaters incase it was a little chilly. Just very roomy. Thank you for having the dates available at short notice. Our other hosts from smugglers inn at Victor Harbor were very rude and cancelled our booking even though we paid our deposit. They almost weren't going to give our deposit back. That was the woman from smugglers inn, not her husband
Wasn't anything we didn't like, only that we wish it could have been longer stay. Thanks again

Charming older home close to amenities in Port Elliot. Unfortunately, there was a loss of power in the area on our last night there which was going to last into late evening, so we decided to return home. Otherwise the stay was comfortable and enjoyable.

Great location - walk to beach is a little way away but easily doable and you’re very near the main cafes etc. My teen appreciated the second living area and view.

Large house.
A few attention to details required: chipped/ cracked plates on top of fridge, frying pans that are so scratched they are probably cancer causing, Champagne glasses would be good (especially if renting for Xmas and New year).

Great getaway cottage!
Such a beautiful character property! Great location, just a few minutes walk to the Port Elliot hotel (which has an amazing beer garden!) and the shops. Loved having 2 living areas so kids had their own space to watch TV, and 2 toilets is def a bonus! Had pretty well everything we needed for our weeks stay. Would be perfect to have a new bunk and matresses or 2 singles in 3rd bedroom for the kids & the 2nd QB was quite hard for our sons liking, but the 1st bedrooms bed was comfy for us. Having said that, we'd stay again! Check in and out was easy at LJ Hooker Victor Harbour. The agent and property owner was very quick to respond and try to resolve issue when we noticed a water leak. Great value for money, and very glad we booked here!

Great position as rather quiet and close to local shops & close enough for walks on the beach or the great walking track. House rules are quite intimidating at first & confusing as a cleaning fee is paid but vacuuming is expected to be done by the renters. Also very confusing regarding rubbish & recycling. Discussion with the managing agent cleared up a few things but I suggest owner and management need to come to an arrangement to sort out these problems. Fantastic to find a pet friendly place. Thankyou

Good location
Loved the location of this house, with it being walking distance to the local restaurants, bakery, pubs and Horseshoe Bay. However there are some things to mention which could be improved. The aircon is only in the kitchen and the unit is a bit out of date and probably due for an upgrade as it wasn't very effective. In order to avoid a rubbish collection fee we had to take our own rubbish with us even though they had wheelie bins available. This seemed unreasonable when there is already a cleaning fee. Not sure how much of this fee gets put into use as we found rubbish from the previous tenants in the backyard and under the couch; and found the floors dusty and the rugs sandy. The vacuum cleaner and mop was broken and the drains in the bathroom smelt a bit mouldy. This place has potential to be 5 stars if it's spruced up a bit!!
