Spa was the highlight, being able to relax in the spa by the bush setting with complete privacy. Ultra quiet. Private style road leads to the entrance. Bed was comfy. Shower was great. About 2 min walk to beach with your own private beach access directly off the rear of the property. Coffee and shops only a quick 3 min drive away. Very easy access via lock box process.
Loved hearing the waves all day and all night. Coming from Canberra, I miss that after growing up near the beach years ago. Illaroo is so close to everything, yet far enough away from the hustle and bustle. This place would be amazing for several guests or a family with plenty of space to kick back and relax. Being just me, I love having the space all to myself.
I just wanted a large space for my family to spend some time together with easy beach access. This place had everything we needed, including a travel cot for my grand son. So I was very pleased. Great BbBbQ area quiet area for the baby.
Absolutely loved it location and just a beautiful house as you would expect for a beach home and more. Will be choosing to stay there again in the near future
Illaroo is very well managed and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. We stayed with extended family and were pleased the location and accuracy of the listing. It was very clean and well maintained. We stayed in June and even though there is central heating, every room had additional heaters to make the stay comfortable. The views are amazing and its barely a few mins walk to the beach. You can spot milky way on a clear winter night. We did some amazing astrophotography. Only thing we missed was a outdoor fire pit. Overall very happy with the Illaroo and hope to return back soon.
Very peaceful, and can hear the ocean from inside the house! Kitchen and bathrooms were fully stocked which is a massive bonus. The spa was amazing, the outdoor areas were great for reading or relaxing. Great location, perfect coastal hideaway but the local woolies is still only a 4 minute drive away. Only issue my group had was the hot water in the bathrooms played up, but Professional Holiday Homes were very helpful in sorting out the issue. Overall, loved it, would stay again, the house was beautiful!
Nice home, beach is very accessible, more than enough activities to do on site. Not a great selection of takeaway places nearby. When the heating gets sorted I would rate this as excellent. The portable heaters were ok but really need to be improved on. We stayed in the first week of July. Otherwise it was great!
The house is in an excellent location and has everything you could possibly need the facilities are excellent, But 4 senior ladies found the stairs challenging after our sporting events.
The place was great for a getaway spot, we had a wonderful time. Had an issue with the hot tub during our stay we were disappointed we wouldn't get to use it, we called the property manager who was so helpful and had someone out to fix it so we could still use during our stay. Highly recommend 'Professional Holiday Homes'.
Direct access to the beach from your private bush track. Peaceful, private and sheltered location. House is comfortable and well-equipped. The site is steep with lots of internal stairs which some might find challenging. We enjoyed our stay and are happy to recommend it to others. Would suit families with older children.
What a beautiful place to stay! We all enjoyed the home itâs location and definitely the spa, everything we needed we would love to stay again! Thank you
Wonderful holiday house. A short walk from being on the beach. Very relaxed feel. And the hot tub in nature makes unwinding so easy. The one downside we experienced was the insufficient central heating, which was disappointing for a winter stay. However, the team at Professional Homes ensured heaters we delivered for each room ASAP.
This house is amazing! We spent a very short weekend here - 4 adults and 2 kids, and it was perfect for all of us. Unfortunately it rained all of Saturday and we were very comfortable lazing around the house and chilling in the outdoor spa (we brought our own gazebo as there is no shelter). There was lots of space, we never once felt cramped or that we were on top of each other. We wanted for absolutely nothing! Everything was provided from linen, bath towels, extra pillows & blankets, outdoor cushions, books, loads of board games, a Wii + games, loads of DVD's & CD's for the kids, table tennis, bikes, beach toys and a kitchen that has everything you can think of +++.
The booking agents were amazing. Very responsive, very friendly, helpful & pleasant to deal with.
There was construction work on the house next door, but we must have lucked out as we heard them for about 15 mins on the Friday arvo and that was it, so no issue at all!
Very happy, just wish we had stayed longer.....
Illaroo was a fantastic property to stay in. A very short stroll off the rear deck and onto the amazing beach..The house itself was large, comfortable and whisper quiet. Our only regret was that we didn't book it for longer, we won't make that mistake again!
This property delivered everything promised, to a high standard. The attention to little details, especially the equipping of the kitchen, was top notch.
