The views are spectacular... but we were disappointed with the rest of it. We should have read all the old reviews and noted the lack of new reviews. Maintenance is still a big issue for this property and for the price per night paid we expected so much more in the quality of ammenties offered. Disappointing!

This lovely house is gorgeous with amazing views. Ultra clean and quaint. Very warm air con. However the beds are only doubles and I found them very hard and uncomfortable. But that said I'd still stay here again. The view out to the bay is really lovely

Views galore, 5 minutes from the CBD and it is located in a court so no traffic noise. However it was a little tired in its look, we had a family with active children in the next apartment and at 7am they were running about our apartment and also had a clear view inside.

This property needs a huge amount of updating, maintenance & repairs. Can not possibly be called a 4.5Star or 4Star property. I will only give it 3Stars. Tiling on shower floors are in disrepair. Toilets didn’t flush properly. Minimum setup. Very hot in loft bedroom. No flyscreens so windows can’t be opened for fresh air, as lots of bush flys come in. Aircon upstairs can’t be used as a pipe needs to go out the window, then that lets the flys in if you open the window. For the nightly cost updated maintenance can afford to be done. Unfortunately very disappointed for this price range.

Although this apartment had a great location & a spectacular view we were really disappointed at the condition of the 1 bedroom apartment we stayed in. Many people have eluded to the ongoing maintenance issues of this property but clearly nothing is being done about it. We were seriously concerned about both showers ( upstairs & down) as they seemed to have serious waterproofing issues. The upstairs shower was leaking down the wall to the front door where there are stains on the paintwork. We actually watched the droplets coming down. The downstairs shower has lifting tiles that have rotting floor boards beneath them. There are also boards lifting on the verandah & the upstairs window has a crack right across it - and this is before you mention any of the other things other people have reviewed & nothing has been done. This property could be something spectacular if someone showed it some care & attention.…

We stayed here for one night prior to our Gordon River Cruise. As tour departure time is 8:30am, we were up and about to watch the sun rise after a mix of rain, hail and clear skies throughout the night. We loved the sound of the weather and the views of the stars after the clouds cleared. The apartments have expansive views over Macquarie Harbour with the lights from the distant salmon farms dancing across the water. Booking dinner in Strahan in advance is highly recommended, something we did not do. As such, we enjoyed our takeaway with everything we needed on hand in the apartment, enjoying the sun set as the storm clouds rolled in. :-)

Firstly, the view as you walk in to the apartment is stunning. Ceiling to floor glass with a WOW factor! Unfortunately, other aspects of the apartment didn't meet up to the initial reaction. It was great there was a washing machine, albeit a very budget washing machine oddly positioned (sideways). It often rains in Strahan and there was no dryer! There is a coffee machine in the apartment (with no instructions) and no coffee supplied for the machine. It was good that there was oil, pepper (cardboard container) and salt. The most difficult aspect of the stay was that we couldn't enjoy any breeze or leave any windows or doors open at all. The supersized flies were prolific! In this position the owner would be advised to install fly screens, including a screen door & a clothes dryer. The yard was unloved with no outdoor furniture at all. the 2 basic chairs on the back deck were not adequate given the price point of this apartment. A small investment in some additional furniture would go a long way to improving this apartment. A small table & chairs at the front of the apartment to enjoy the view would greatly assist. The dining table was behind a wall with no view at all and I doubt whether most people would use this at all. Also, retractable blinds are needed as the sun streams in the front of the apartment making it impossible to view any television which is fixed in place. The apartment was expensively priced for Strahan but sadly lacked many items to make our stay enjoyable. Disappointing for the price. Would not recommend to stay here if you are intending to stay any longer than 1 night.…

Wonderful views from this self-contained, well-equipped little apartment. The shower upstairs wasn't working but there was a shower downstairs so it wasn't a problem. Very close to everything you need. Clean and tidy ..... and snuggly! I think a little bit pricey but worth it for the views.

Incredible view of the harbour, 2 minutes drive to esplanade and shop. Very comfortable beds, warm in middle of winter, very well equipped, quiet location. 2nd bedroom is compact but fits a large bed, main bedroom is amazing, enormous with fabulous views.
