From recent guests

We had a wonderful stay here. Very beautiful house with 2 provided buggies making for easy transportation. So glad we found this!

Danielle was an absolutely amazing host! The property was clean, cozy, and exactly as described in the listing. Every detail was thoughtfully arranged to ensure a comfortable stay. Communication was seamless, with prompt responses to any questions we had. The location was perfect—close to the marina, making it easy to explore the area. I would highly recommend this property to anyone and would love to stay here again in the future!

Spectacular property. Plenty of room for the 7 of us. Love the patio off the kitchen. Was our nightly happy hour spot to watch all of the Flying Fox bats getting ready to take off for the evening. Beautiful place. Only downside that could be improved is more chairs around the pool as there aren't enough seats for what the property sleeps.

We had the pleasure of staying at Danielle’s place, and it was an absolute delight! The home was exactly as described—immaculately clean, cozy, and beautifully decorated. The location was perfect, with easy access to everything. Overall, I had a fantastic experience and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful and comfortable stay in Hamilton Islands. I hope to return soon!
