Hervey Bay gem
We had a wonderful time in Hervey Bay, and this home just added to the experience. Very clean, location was perfect for us, and everything you think you would need was provided, it was more or less, pack your luggage and go. We will definitely be back to Hervey Bay, and this holiday home is right up there for our next stay.

Perfect little getaway, great area for the dogs, large yard, dog beach across the road. Small water view from front veranda. Close to shops and restaurants. Not a five star resort but very homely and comfy. Thank you for giving me the pleasure to stay in your lovely little home. Will definitely return. 😊

This was a great property that was pet friendly owners were great good communication as l couldn't get service and couldn't reply to messages. The house had been closed up for sometime as l would say has rained quite alot in Hervey Bay as it has in Central Queensland so house smelt a little musty once opened the house for a while smelt nice accommodation was great clean and tidy very comfortable for us all. My two staffy's had a yard to run around in that was clean and tidy.

Grotty, several cockroaches dead & alive, hair in bathroom, smelt like pee & musty trouble breathing
This property had previous animal poo in the yard we had to clean up before letting our dogs out of the car, it had a permanent musty smell and smelt like peepee in the living areas. The bedrooms, bathroom & kitchen had cockroaches dead and alive and previous people left hair in the bathroom floor, sink and shower. It was gritty underfoot constantly and there was a huge clump of dirty hair (previous dogs??) left in the laundry sink and the cups/plates had remnants to be washed before we used them. This home's inside floor levels (incl shower) made it very difficult to stand without slipping & I fell down the garage/laundry steps & the entry steps were worse. It was not worth the $ stay fee in my opinion and we regretted booking here. My partner had trouble breathing making our actual stay limited to trying to sleep only there, which was difficult on the uncomfortable bed. Yes we tried the single child size bed in the hope to sleep better. We had higher hopes of the cleanliness and comfortability of this pet-friendly holiday home after reading the homes pet cleanliness rules, but were shocked at the smell and previous 'clean' when we entered the property. We tried to be the better person when we first raised the issue ... and we cleaned the home/garage before we left early, better than how we believe it was left for our arrival. Regret paying this to stay there:( unhappy stayer

A sinking feeling.
In need of a update, renovation required , pest control and maintenance lacking. Cleaning of walls required , mould visible , holes in walls , uneven floors and signs of subsidance due to foundations sinking. The Hervey bay hoons have got worse , and no wi fi or bluetooth operating. Did not enjoy location , not beach front. Have requested re imbursement , with no reply.
