    “Having stayed here two years ago, I was surprised to see that the loud squeaky exterior doors and loose bathroom door handles were still there.”

    Also disappointing not having any music set up, not sure if it was broken or just old and out of date but we couldn't have any music on at all. Great that the TV has been replaced with a smart tv that we can log into Netflix with! Makes those rainy days with the little ones so much easier. The gas cooktop knobs don't close properly so you can smell gas. The bathrooms aren't very clean, especially the tiles, as well as under the tables and couches (dead roaches and other things, a hairbrush). And ...

    Also disappointing not having any music set up, not sure if it was broken or just old and out of date but we couldn't have any music on at all. Great that the TV has been replaced with a smart tv that we can log into Netflix with! Makes those rainy days with the little ones so much easier. The gas cooktop knobs don't close properly so you can smell gas. The bathrooms aren't very clean, especially the tiles, as well as under the tables and couches (dead roaches and other things, a hairbrush). And I was surprised to see that there is no maintenance to the gardens, lots of dead leaves every where, building up in the garden and outdoor seating area. The second bathroom also has hot water issues, it will go hot and very cold constantly, even if the shower is only two minutes. Whereas the ensuite shower has no issues. The lockbox also wouldn't unlock and I think the numbers weren't engaging properly. I feel bad for the owners who pay for the services and it's not being done. Pans could do with some replacing. And with linen, it would be good to have face cloths for the little ones. Comfortable beds though, generally well equipped (except for lack of sugar and salt). And the place is big enough to accommodate two families.

    Thank you for your review, Chantelle - We appreciate your feedback. Sometimes when the sun is beating down on the doors, they can squeak a bit when opening. As with the bathroom door handle, the property owners have looked into the issue which has now been resolved. As for music/sound system, this is not mentioned on the listing so guests should bring their own source of music if they wish to have this during their stay, however music can be played through the Smart TV as well. With regards to gas stove top, this was replaced last year so still relatively new. I will check with our local services team to see if there are instructions available for guests to refer to. Cooks Beach is renowned for cockroaches, especially over the warmer months so you may see the occasional one from time to time. The property does have a maintenance person who does the lawns and gardens on a regular basis, however depending on the time of year and as we are coming into Autumn there may be more leaves falling than usual. We haven't had any other reported access issues for the lockbox but will keep an eye on this. For the hot water, if someone does run a tap or use the water at the same time it can affect the pressure and hot water if someone is shower. Bachcare
