Everything I expected, foxtel for the footy and down time, fishing , fishing and more fishing. Very child friendly homebwith lots of toys and grass space to play and shallow water for kayaking. Close to shops cafes and much more. We stayed for 3 nights and never had a dull moment. Oh and plenty of fish off the jetty no baby fish 30 to 40cm plus breams loved every moment. Fishing tips bait chucken breast dows the trick and not stinky. Thank you Ducks Bungalow for a lovely experience, we will definitely be back.

Ducks Bungalow is a beautiful, peaceful place. The back deck leading out to the lake was our favourite place to sit and relax. We only had one night there which wasn’t enough. The bungalow was very clean and had lots of natural light. We are looking for our next available dates so we can come back, thank you!

As Advertised
We were very happy with the Ducks Bungalow as it delivered on everything advertised and we had an enjoyable 8 nights. Only disappointment is the WIFI and internet connection as it is in some type of black spot. Even using my phone as a mobile hotspot gave very poor results.

Christmas break
After a nightmare start, couldn’t get into property with codes given. Once in the place was beautiful, a few maintenance issues needed. Like light in bathroom not working, cold water tap in shower needs looking at, tv in first bedroom not working properly a few door handles need repairing. The dog next door howled a lot and more privacy needed whilst out on the deck. All in all it was a lovely holiday but has a few issues to be fixed with the price that is charged.

The view! It’s unbeatable. The home is extremely close to a beautiful swimming spot - Naru Beach, walking distance to a coffee shop that sells worlds best Portuguese tarts and has a super friendly doggo next door that loves a pat. Although there is no air con, the house has 2 portable fans that help keep you cool. The place we spent most of our time was water side on the deck or with our feet in the water. The kitchen is fully stocked which was a wonderful surprise. Overall, just lovely.

Small issues
Toilet light didn’t work at all. Bedroom door handle lock has dent into wall. I don’t want to be accused of this. Suggest repair and install doorstop. Dog next door was making crying noises and jumping at fence while we ate dinner on verandah. Maybe a coverage of cloth or bamboo at bottom half of fence so both can’t see each other.

What an amazing location! The house was clean and comfortable, with everything you’d need for a little getaway. My family and I only had one night at Ducks Bungalow, unfortunately. We would love to stay again. The idea of enjoying a glass of wine with a cheese platter at sunset, overlooking the water is very tempting. I’d highly recommend this property.

Perfect stay for 2 couples
Comfortable stay perfect for my 2 night short holiday, the house is identical to online photos and very clean. Enjoyed the ease of entry with pin. I messaged the host in relation to kayak hire, although i didnt land up hiring the kayak (due to weather) I found the owner to have quick and friendly to contact. Overal my experience was very pleasent and would return in the future
