    There is a huge construction underway next door. Directly impacting on the view front on. There are still peripheral views of the beach and out to sea. We were not advised of this prior to our arrival or at the time of booking.

    Facilities and location were perfect. Walking distance to the sculptures, IGA, local pub and cafes.

    Baudin House is a spacious, well appointed, comfortable home away from home. The location is excellent, great ocean views and walking distance to the beach, shops, cafes, etc.

    Building a new house right in front of the balcony, noise from 8am. Lots of dust on balcony and outdoor furniture.

    Loads of space, plenty of supplies, toilet rolls, napkins, cleaning materials, soap, shampoo, conditioner, local honey, cotton buds, cotton wool balls, shower caps, makeup wipes, condiments, etc. etc.

    Best beach house on the best beach, with the best views. Great for a large family.

    Not a criticism at all, just an FYI that when referring to mobility issues in the initial communications it means access to the upper gate and being able to drive in there instead of using the stairs from the lower driveway. I could easily have messaged the host and sorted that so we could bring luggage and groceries straight into the house but it wasn't a big deal since we are all fit and able to do the stairs. Also FYI that the hot water only heats at night so we just adjusted the household to use the hot water sparingly during the day and have showers at night and use the outdoor shower to rinse off after swims. Again not an issue for us, just FYI. Last, the house directly in front of Baudin has had a concrete slab poured, but since Baudin is so high up it does not affect the beautiful view from the lounge room so don't worry about that.

    The location is terrific with a fantastic view of Penneshaw beach across the road, and a 10 minute walk to the small town shops and pub. Every day we saw pods of dolphins right in close to the beach. The house is huge, lots of space for our family group and it was easy to accommodate family meals outside on the deck, and play games in the garage or on the large space at the upper end of the property. Two car spaces on the lower entrance. Good BBQ, and the kitchen had everything needed to cook at home. There is an outdoor shower to rinse off after swimming. The hosts were super informative and communication was instant and easy. Only need to bring beach towels, that's it.

    Nothing, all was good

    The location was quiet, perfect, with walking distance to all facilities. The house was the best with plenty of room, comfort, views, amenities and cleanliness. After scenic tours during the day looked forward to returning to Baudin House.

    Not being able to open the top gate so we could utilize the ramp to get into the house. Carrying bags up the stairs wasn't the best idea. We couldn't find a tea towel to dry the dishes.

    Great view, comfortable beds and good well-equipped kitchen. Plenty of room for the three of us staying there.

    Penneshaw is a long way from some attractions but we knew that before we came. plenty at this end of the island and the comfort of Baudin House made up for the occasional long drive

    The house is large and very comfortable. The views are spectacular and location wonderful for getting to many of the things the island has to offer. great place
