Not up to par.
We have stayed at different villas at South Shores over the past five years, and have thoroughly enjoyed it. Unfortunately we found this villa to be a bit lacking in the basics compared to all the others we have stayed in. There was no coffee pod machine, no hairdryer and the television wasn't a smart tv so unable to watch anything other than basic television. It was also very small and low for the area in which it was in. The quilt cover in the master bedroom was dirty as were the cushions in the living area. The door handle was very loose and the some of the knobs on the side tables came off when opened. All in all for the price it was a tad disappointing.

Our favourite holiday home :)
This is our second time here as a group of 3 generations and it ticks all of our boxes: - lots of spaces in the villa for everyone to have some me time - pool for the children - lovely walk to a lovely beach - plenty of space for the children to play - quiet, private and secure location - plenty of places to eat nearby, plus a supermarket - day trips to Victor Harbor, Goolwa and McLaren Vale Just one request for next year - yes we have booked again - could we please have some lovely comfy chairs /sunbeds on the deck for reading, evening drinks, and naps?! That would be awesome :) -

Perfect location
I stayed here with friends over the weekend and we had a great time. The house was ideal for us (4 adults) as we could each have our own room. We had an issue with one of the internal doors but a quick call to the owner had it sorted out. We walked to the Main Street each evening which took around 20 minutes along the main road which is not lit but has a wide walk way. Perfect access to the beach. It was cool while we were there so we did not use the pools but we would love to return in warmer months and make more of the facilities. We may even bring the children next time.

Great family stay
Wonderful spot and great set up for our family with bunks and seperate rumbas room with fold out futons, tv and table tennis table. The pools, bike track (kids) and beach made for a relaxing stay. One small issue was the amount of spider webs in the eves and outside - a bit more focus on this would have made this a 5 star for us.

I was disappointed to find you actually expect people to sleep in garage as part of the accommodation to cater for ten i don't even know if that's legal. I think you need to revise your accommodation status. t he place is looking old
