The Surf Nook | Walk to Beach | Family Friendly

Wonderful home in a fantastic location Positive: Gorgeous property Negative: we liked everything

Overall, we had a great stay. The house was clean, modern, well-maintained, and exactly as described. It was a lovely place to relax and we'd certainly consider staying again.A few things that would take the experience to the next level:* **Fire pit:** One of the main reasons we booked this property during winter was to enjoy the outdoor fire pit. Unfortunately, there was no firewood or fire-starting materials provided, which meant making a 30-minute round trip to Bunnings before we could use it. At this price point, having at least a starter supply would make a big difference.* **Check-in time:** A 3:00 pm check-in felt quite late, particularly for a shorter stay. We did enquire about an earlier check-in and were advised they would let us know if it became available, but unfortunately it wasn't. Even moving check-in to 2:00 pm where possible would give guests a much better opportunity to enjoy the property on their first day.* **Pet friendly:** This is just something to consider for the future. Margaret River is an incredibly pet-friendly destination, and with the house being so close to a dog beach, allowing small, well-behaved pets (perhaps with an additional bond or pet fee) could make the property even more appealing. Many homes in the area are now moving in that direction.Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and these are simply suggestions that we think would elevate an already lovely property into an exceptional one.
