3BRGem. Ideal for Families

AndreRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Het is een heerlijk ruim appartement op de tweede verdieping, alles schoon en goed uitgerust met keukengerei. Groot overdekt balkon. Heerlijke grote bedden met goede matrassen, fijne douche. Alles brandschoon en fris geschilderd. In het gebouw geen geluidsoverlast. Loopafstand van strand en stad. De stad heeft een mooi groot kosteloos openbaar zwembad. Restaurant Noa in Edge Hill is aan te bevelen. Twee kleine minpuntjes: er is geen lift en het appartement ligt in het verlengde van het vliegveld waardoor enige geluidsoverlast met name in de ochtend (geen nacht vluchten). Leanne en Steve zijn zeer behulpzame en vriendelijke hosten. We zouden er zeker terug komen.

Abode Palm Cove Ground Floor Swim Out

KatherineRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We had a wonderful family holiday at Dianne’s place. The apartment was perfect for our family with two young toddlers, beautiful setting, clean, comfortable and all the extras for kids, toys, pool toys and a great outdoor spa bath. We had a lot of fun at the resort beach pool and the location in Palm Cove is perfect, by the beach and restaurants. Would definitely recommend and would love to go back.

The Cabin

EjRating, 5 stars1 month ago
I highly recommend this stay, Especially if you’re wanting a quiet location with friendly hosts. Which was perfect for me as someone who travels for business and just wants to get away from the busy tourist locations and wants somewhere that’s accessible, friendly and quiet.
