Great location
Handy location to the beach with lovely views. Great to have two bathrooms - and the shower pressure is fantastic, good kitchen and comfortable lounge area. The host was generally very responsive. Unfortunately there was a terrible musty smell that we could not get rid of - and a few maintenance issues that needed to be looked at - eg outside light not working, problems with the dishwasher (which my husband fixed) and a couple of other things which we also fixed. My biggest gripe is that we paid a $90 dollar cleaning fee - but had to take our rubbish away with us. I also did not get any response when I asked where we should take the rubbish to. We only had a small shopping bag full and a couple of plastic items to recycle - but it's a pain having to find a local tip when you are travelling to your next location - then pay to dump your rubbish when you have already paid a cleaning fee on top of the nightly rate.

Bessie’s is Best!
Great place for rest and relaxation. Alfie’s Bay was very quiet, which was just what we had hoped for. Having 4 separate sleeping areas was perfect for our group. Loved the proximity to the beach, and to local attractions. Well appointed house (though didn’t find the hot tub, which was listed as a facility online). Plenty of safe outdoor space for groups with children.
