Clean and neat unit, great yard for dog.
The unit was great clean and had everything you need, yes as others have noted an odd collection in the kitchen but has all that was needed. Comfortable beds and lounges. Great yard for kids and in our case my dog. Disappointing that the beaches close to the property are no dogs, but only just over 1km walk to Shoal Bay which does have a dog on leash section. The real estate that manages the property are quite blunt and not friendly in their communications.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
There was not a decent set of cutlery we can use, there were a couple of teaspoons, not enough for four people, not even soap to use in the bathroom or kitchen, no kitchenware to cook, and the beds had animal hair

A short break at the Lorikeet Retreat
We enjoyed our recent 5 night stay. The property was very comfortable and the fully fenced backyard and outdoor area was great for our small dog.

Great Holiday
We had a great holiday at Lorikeet Retreat. This property was in a fantastic location for us - just very short bike rides to Shoal and Fingal bays and box beach. Our dog was also very comfortable. The yard had plenty of shelter for him. Overall we were comfortable and happy in this property. There were just a couple of issues with cleanliness. We had to give the BBQ a thorough clean to make it useable. Also some of the cupboards and drawers could have done with a good clean out. We would definitely stay again though.

Comfortable and clean.
Clean, spacious, comfortable, dog-friendly accommodation. Lots of space in the yard for the dog, with a very nice lawn to play on and a verandah in the sun. The bed was very comfortable - very important, the lounge a little less so, but with lots of cushions to pad it. The fridge was quite noisy and made occasional funny wheezing sounds. One of the toilets had a deodoriser which caused an allergic reaction however I was able to avoid it. The agent was extremely helpful in assisting with tuning the TV at short notice on Saturday morning. Overall a good week-end away. Thanks O'Meara Team.
