Stunning location, fabulous accomodation that suited all age groups. Unfortunately the maintainance side let it down. Windows, and there are a lot of them, were filthy as were the fly screens.

The Mainsail Boat Harbour
We had a great few day's away here with family to celebrate my Mum's 70th birthday. The house was beautiful and we loved being able to look at the water everyday. There's plenty to do and see if you have the time. Plenty of shops close by, Salamander Bay Square is great and has everything you need. I needed help a few times and contacting someone was very easy, they were polite and able to help. We look forward to staying here again

Amazing House in an Amazing Location
Very grateful to have had the opportunity to stay in this beautiful house that is right on the beach. It has everything you need for a beautiful vacation. Our only negative was that it is not really suitable for small children. The handrail to the second storey verandah is very dangerous with big gaps around the bottom and corners. Would definitely stay there again in an adult group.

A FANTASTIC PROPERTY IN AN EXCELLENT LOCATION
SAILS IS IN AN IDEAL LOCATION OVERLOOKING A SMALL BEACH WITH WALKS EASILY ACCESSIBLE. IT IS PROBABLY NOT SUITABLE IF YOU WANT TO BE IN AMONGST THE NIGHTLIFE. SALAMANDER AND NELSON BAY ARE BOTH ABOUT 12 MIN AWAY. THIS PROPERTY IS IDEAL FOR TWO FAMILY GROUPS. WE WERE VERY COMFORTABLE WITH OUR FOUR FAMILIES.

Fabulous family holiday
The magnificent views of waves crashing onto the rocks on the northern side of Boat Harbour, even from the top of the drive, ensured a wonderful holiday week in this amazing home. The long hallway led us to the dazzling views of the beach, headlands and the ocean. Every day we had the excitement of seeing whales and dolphin from both levels of the house and from the beach. Some of our party whilst paddling in kayaks or on a SUP in the bay were fortunate to see a pod of dolphin very close to them. The walks to the headlands were easy even for the three-year old twins. There were great views of whales, the pounding sea and the long stretch of sand hills to the south. The house has three separate bedroom areas, the wonderful, large main bedroom with complete bathroom was perfect for the couple with the toddler. The walk-in-robe being a great location for the travel cot! The amazing downstairs area suited best the twins and their parents with another complete bathroom plus a bonus lounge room and kitchen. The twins' older brother was upstairs in a huge bedroom next to his ancient grandparents. The third bathroom adjoined these bedrooms. The wonderfully appointed kitchen, the dining and lounge areas were perfect with fantastic views. The upstairs deck was well used and the enormous televisions in each lounge were much appreciated by the little ones. We enjoyed a perfect holiday together in this extraordinary home.

The property was in a beautiful location. The house was stunning. Kitchen was very well equipped.
We were very disappointed with having to check in at 3pm and check out at 10am with absolutely no leniency. The house was actually ready for us at 1.30 because we arrived early and checked it out, then left so that we wouldn’t be breaching any rules. We actually only got to spend 1 out of 3 days there, because we spent Sunday morning doing the cleaning for you. The cleanliness was definitely not to the standard that we were expected to uphold. Dusty floors and carpets not properly vacuumed; Dusty fly screens covered in cob webs; Oven rack was dripping with grease. The whole experience for us was actually insulting. If this is how Stayz treats everyone, we will not be using Stayz again, preferring to spend our money at a hotel, where we can actually get out money’s worth for a whole weekend away.
