The Annex

4.98 out of 5 average rating, 164 reviews1 month ago

Sharlene’s place was well equipped and very clean. Upon checkin there was some milk, cereal, bread and spreads which was greatly appreciated. All the beds are comfortable and there’s a very functional kitchen. Sharlene herself as a host is also very kind even helping us get on top of our pile of washing when there was wet weather. I will mention for other travellers that the window coverings keep out very minimal light so if you’re a light sleeper or will be adjusting to new timezones an eye mask would be good. We had portable black out blinds with us but not enough for both bedrooms. Would definitely stay here again

Mount Downtown At the Beachhouse

4.93 out of 5 average rating, 242 reviews4 days ago

The house is perfectly located, handy to everything you need. Good view of the Mount from the lounge (when not misty). Our team of tennis players loved the house - it was spacious enough to spread out, have our own space and to also come together for meals and together time. The kitchen and bathrooms were modern, sleek and a pleasure to use. Great beach vibe throughout the house. We felt like we had stayed as guests at a well cherished home. Thank you Michelle.
