Excellent location and very cool house.

Amazing location, great house. We needed to do some serious cleaning due to dust, pet fur, and sticky cutlery. Overall though we loved it, and the property is amazing for a family with young kids. Walking distance to playground and beach. We would love to stay there again. Thank you Donna.

Great getaway with the family

Our family had a great few nights away at The Pet Friendly Port Sorell shack. Outdoor area was very secure, allowing us to bring our dog with us. Great location. Thanks for allowing us to stay, we will be back!

Good family beach holiday home

Lovely, spacious accommodation. The children loved staying here so close to the beach. On the whole, we were provided with enough of everything (utensils etc), though I was a little surprised we were left with only 3 dishwashing tablets (so we bought some more and left a few for the next guests). Also, one of the bedroom doors tended to lock itself when closed & no one in the room, was difficult to unlock from the outside. We struggled to get clothes for 7 people dry, with no dryer in the place and so used the air-conditioning more than we would have liked, but being winter, there was not much other options! Overall, though, we really enjoyed the place and would stay here again 😃 dryer

🔺For the price -Internet/wifi should be provided🔺NO WIFI

Spacious, quiet, very well located and has a secure well fenced backyard and decking area for pets. The north facing windows would be particularly lovely in winter. I stayed for 5 nights in October 2023 at a very significant cost per night (which cannot be disclosed on reviews). It was my fault in not seeing the small print saying that there’s no wifi. (Considering the importance of internet connection these days, this should be more clearly stated on the Stayz description in larger type, like the 2 bathrooms. It was easy to miss.) A shame because there’s a large ‘smart’ tv - with zero Internet connection to Netflix, Iview etc. In addition, on the morning of my arrival, I also got a text message to say that the accommodation can have poor (free to air) tv coverage, which I found to be the case on several stations. (I once had this problem at home and got an antenna man in and feel the owners of this accommodation should do the same.) Nice white linen and fairly clean overall, although the large drawer with cutlery and kitchen implements could definitely do with a good clean, as could the windows. Overall, considering the price, I was disappointed and wish I’d holidayed somewhere else which had good internet/wifi and tv connection.

Pet Friendly Port Sorell

Three adults and three dogs fitted into this Port Sorell property beautifully. The accommodation for the people was spacious and comfortable. A large enclosed decked area made managing the dogs easy and kept mess to a minimum. The beds were very comfortable with lovely linen. The shack was cosy and warm, even though it was VERY cold outside. The peaceful neighbourhood and close proximity to the beach (for dog walks) made the Shack a perfect place for us and our pooches.

One of the best places we've stayed at with our dogs. We felt at home as soon as we walked in. Hope to return when the weather is warmer so that we can make more use of the lovely courtyard.

Four day stay

We enjoyed our visit to “The Shack” at Port Sorell” and our dog just loved it too. The open living space was very roomy with good comfortable seating and even though weather was cold the air conditioner heated the area nicely. Comfortable bedding. Good kitchen and cooking facilities, had everything we needed for our stay. Location was excellent few minutes drive to shops, less than 5 min walk to a lovely beach. Contact with Donna was excellent and check in info was easy to follow. Thank you Donna, hope we can return again in the future.
