  • What if something breaks during my stay?

    We understand that accidents happen, and we would appreciate it if you let us know if any property is damaged/stained during your stay. Usually, we will hold the bond and then obtain a quote to replace/repair the damage and then organise to have paid from the bond. If something was damaged on your arrival, please let us know immediately and we will endeavour to have it fixed as soon as possible. We also provide a guest and maintenance form in your welcome pack and would appreciate any advice you can provide on the property.

  • What should we bring with us?

    Each property will be set with a welcome pack of supplies i.e. toilet paper, shampoo, dishwashing liquid, washing powder etc that will cover the initial few days of your stay. If staying longer you may need to bring additional and or purchase from local stores. No food or condiment items are left in the properties and you will need to bring them with you if you require them during your stay.

  • What if we leave something behind?

    Please contact the office as soon as possible and we will endeavour to locate the item and have it returned to you. It is the guest’s responsibility to organise postage or a courier to receive their belongings back at their own cost. If a housekeeper brings lost property to our office, we will contact you.

  • How do I find the address for my accommodation?

    Upon arrival you will be given exact address details for GPS and or we will provide a map that will show the location of the property within our welcome pack.

  • Are we allowed to bring our pets?

    We do offer a range of pet friendly properties. Please advise us at time of booking if you are intending to bring a pet and there may be additional information or terms and conditions we need to advise you about, depending on the property. Unfortunately, due to common allergies we do not allow cats in any of our properties.

    If you bring your pet to a non-pet friendly property you will be asked to leave immediately without refund and and extra clean fee will be charged.

  • Do we have to clean the property before we leave?

    As stated in our terms and conditions, you need to leave the property in a clean and tidy state upon departure. This includes washing and putting away dishes you have used and taking out your rubbish, cleaning the BBQ and giving the floor a once over sweep or vacuum if you have brought sand or dirt in from outside.

  • What if the house is not left clean on our departure?

    Once the housekeeper enters the property, depending on how bad the property has been left, there may be an extra cleaning / rubbish removal fees deducted from your bond. Fees start at $50.00 and our office will call you and discuss the excess fees if applicable.

  • What if the house is not clean on arrival?

    We endeavour to check each property prior to your arrival, however should you arrive and something is not right please contact our office immediately. We can send a housekeeper promptly over as soon as possible to fix any challenges you may be having with the cleanliness of the property.
