Dutchie's Beach Oasis - Private home with pool, walk to beach and town

8/10 Good

"Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed as two families and had a wonderful stay. The house is very spacious (particularly if the weather is good and you can use the outside areas). The rooms are all good sizes. The lounge room area s a little cramped for two families but we didn't spend much time there. Good kitchem=n facilities and lots of utensils, etc. The only reason for 4 (rather than 5 stars) is that the induction hotplate was truly awful. Very unusable, it seems to be faulty because it was flashing a symbol that it was overheated - then it shut down. We didn't have the opportunity to finish cooking our pasta which was REALLY annoying. Pls invest in a decent (good brand) hotplate that is easy to use and reliable. Also beach towels would be good"
