RoolagoonHomestead large deck and large gardens ideal for families. Pet friendly

10/10 Excellent
"Good location in the middle of the island. Nice house with lovely garden surroundings where native birds can be seen from the windows. The hosts are very welcoming and friendly which is helpful in a fairly isolated area. We had some cold items and early check in could be accommodated so we could use the fridge. The hosts cooked some pizza for us on Saturday night which was good as there are no local restaurants and driving at night is not recommended due to wildlife on the roads."

"The property’s rural location is fabulous and offers outstanding views across Snelling beach. The ambience is lovely and the property is well equipped. Each pod is well separated from its neighbour. The bed is very comfortable and there is absolute silence at night. Our two night stay was delightful. However, as it is off grid there is no microwave, toaster or washing machine. We were disappointed there were no coat hangers to hang our clothes. It would be advisable to take some insect repellant as we had quite a few mosquitoes gain entry on our last night."
