Currarong is such a beautiful little gem on the South Coast. The surrounds are truly hard to beat. Although we made the most of our stay, there were a few things we feel need to be mentioned.
All the reviews for this property are pretty accurate. The sizing of the rooms has been inaccurately portrayed in the photos. It is much smaller than we expected. It was difficult to fit 6 adults comfortably in the tiny lounge/dining area, let alone infants. What made it even tighter was the unfortunate weather we had, which meant the beautiful bifold doors (that are the saving grace for the property) had to be closed, as the rain was coming in all angles onto the deck. If it wasn’t for the deck (and the weather clearing), our stay would have been very uncomfortable.
It would be a huge benefit having clear blinds installed on the deck, stopping the rain from coming in.
The cleanliness of the property was a real let down. After reading prior reviews, this seems to be a common theme despite the extensive checklist your cleaners are supposed to follow as you say. There are stains all over the lounge that with a simple steam clean should come out. There was sand all through the bedrooms and on the lounge. There was hair on the shower screen doors and in the shower grates. There was some of the previous occupants food still in the fridge/freezer, and belongings in drawers.
The yard is great, but would have been better if it was mowed once in a while.
For 5 nights with 6 adults there was about 5 rolls of toilet paper. So make sure you take your own if you’re going for a longer stay, as well as your linen and towels.
I do apologise for all the negative feedback, but when it seems there are many reviews stating the same thing (Other websites included) something should give right?
