Although property is dated, it was clean and tidy.
Amenities were certainly satisfactory.
Location is fantastic and close to other communities along the Peninsula.
A perfect spot for a family holiday close to the beach.

Middleton Favourite
We have stayed in this property on a few occasions due to the location and proximity to the beach. It is one of the older 'shacks' but good to see that the property was clean and everything was functioning including a new TV.

A week of groundhog days…. Waking up to the beach, surfers, seals…. Beach walks with the dogs, neighbour hood walks, starry nights, puzzles and books. Our fifth visit was wonderful, hopefully stay number 6 isn’t too far away. Love it!

Girls getaway
Property was no frills neat and tidy. Was good for what we wanted but with stairs in the middle of the room would not like to stay with young children. Tea/coffee and small milk was supplied but it would have been nice to have a few other basics such as salt and pepper would have been nice.

Reviewer Comments:
Loved the location and chilled-out no-fuss vibe of this truly beachfront property. Yes, its exterior has been subject to the full effects of salt spray off the Southern Ocean, but inside there's every provision and it's lovely and clean.It didn't take our dog long to get to know the way to the beach! Perfect for an off season escape.

This is a very unloved and unclean property desperately requiring upgrading. Non functioning split system for 8 of my 12 day stay, filthy unusable oven, stained furniture and carpet, black mouldy bathroom outlets etc etc. Great view but I had to clean inside of windows to see out. Good WiFi but I definitely would not stay again or recommend to any one else. Balcony is extremely dangerous as missing downward rail leaving a large gap. I was aware this is an older property but did not expect this very poor level - quite insulting. Communication with the booking agent was prompt but ineffective and quite frankly useless.

Reviewer Comments:
Unwind are not very professional in handling the property. At one stage they randomly canceled the booking and then took final payments from incorrect card they were not authorised to.The oven stopped working. While we understand it may be difficult to get service staff during holidays, late January is hardly peak season and sending a ‘brush off’ sms is not acceptable. We were forced to use the very small BBQ and were clearly told we would be charged $50 if we did not clean it.While we enjoyed our holiday, we will never use unwind again nor stay at this property again.

Bit rundown and there is still a light bulb shortage in Middleton, but the overall experience has been good
