Great family holiday

House was perfect for a holiday for an extended family group. There was plenty to do even in the event of bad weather, the pool table room at the back provided a great option for those who want something more active than board games. Location, provides excellent base for walks.

We loved our time at Jakara! It has everything you'd need and more, and perfect for our one year old with high chair and gates at the bottom and top of the stairs. A very comfortable stay, in the perfect location. We will certainly stay again, and recommend this place to everyone!

Fabulous family holiday

8 adults and 2 children stayed here 4 nights for a family holiday and for a local wedding - it was fabulous. We also could take our small dogs and it had an enclosed back yard. Fabulous location with great sea views and was brilliant for family meals and chilling on the balcony. Lots of extras and great cooking facilities. Would definitely stay again.

Short family stay

Fantastic experience from start to finish. Tanya was amazing to communicate with and made life really easy for us. The property itself was really great and so well set up for children - cot, high chair and safety gates at either end of the stairs made it a lot easier for packing and also our time while there, really relaxing!! Thank you, we look forward to visiting again!!

Port Elliott Gem

The owners have put a lot of effort into ensuring that so many things are available for a fully enjoyable and comfortable stay from kitchen to leisure items, extra blankets and towels etc. Rooms and bathrooms are spacious and location is excellent . Check in process very simple. Great place for 2 families or families with more grown up children with an upstairs and downstairs living area. Highly recommend .

Family Fun Weekend

We booked Jakarah and the house next door, Southerlea for our mum's 80th birthday celebration. The houses were perfect for our family of 16 and two dogs. It was the first time we took extra items of our own (like sharp knives) as many rentals don't have great kitchen items BUT we didn't need anything that we took as the houses were totally equipped!! Great spaces, great views, great location! We will be booking again during the summer season for sure!!
