Very relaxing break
Great for 4 of us, plenty of space, clean, loved the fire pit. The locality is good, close to the beach and fishing spots, not to mention the lovely East Coast wineries.

Nice house 100m from beach and not too close to neighbours
Beautiful beach 100m from door. Shops only a short drive away. Lots of local attractions and some further away (1hr) like Freycinet. The drive to anywhere is half the fun - Jesus made some beautiful scenery when He made Tassie.

Fabulous - even in winter
We've stayed here before (in summer) and came back in winter. The house was just as fantastic to stay in! We weren't cold at all - and it was definitely cold outside! Thanks again for a wonderful stay! We'll be back

Great place to spend our Easter weekend
We had a great time staying here. The house was very clean and in the best location. The second lounge area and the WII came in very handy and were well used by the teenagers in our group. The firepit was great and enjoyed by all. The beach is so close and was lovely to walk along each evening to witness the most beautiful sunsets. I only have one little thing that could be improved and that would be to replace the bbq. It was very clean but only 2/3rds of it was working and the heat was very varied over the cooking surface. Apart from that the kitchen was easy to use and had everything we needed. We are looking forward to staying here again. Thank you.

Most wonderful stay at dolphin sands
5 friends stayed here for 3 nights this week. The house is very comfy with everything you need for a great stay.We particularly enjoyed our early morning walks along the beach admiring the fiery red sunrises. Great place to base yourself for touring the east coast. Wish we could have stayed longer and used the outdoor fire pit which looked like fun. Sunday lunch at the Waterloo inn down the road is not to be missed!

Great holiday for the family
We had a great time at Retreat 101! It's a modern and well kept property, so close to the beach! Having two storeys meant that there was definitely an adult zone and a kids zone available (something we have struggled to find in other holiday houses). The Wii was awesome - keeping us all entertained. A great selection of games to play. My only suggestion would be to keep on top of the appliances. Over our stay we had issues with the oven, the kettle and the tv. Loretta was fantastic when I approached her - but no one likes to have to call the property manager during their holiday. Perhaps upgrading the appliances (and maybe thinking about a dishwasher) is something to look into. It was a wonderful break - looking forward to coming back!
