One Mile Retreat - Ocean View 3 Bedroom Retreat

The location, the view from the property.

The property had many good aspects, and we enjoyed most parts of our stay. However, the cleanliness upon arrival was below expectations — the sofa had some crumbs, and the windows were quite dirty, which affected our first impression. We stayed during a very hot day, and the cooling arrangements were limited. There is only one air conditioner, located in the downstairs bunk bedroom. Although there are ceiling fans in all rooms and a portable fan provided, the living area still felt quite hot and stuffy. Regarding the pool, this was likely our misunderstanding — the listing mentions a pool, but based on the photos we assumed it was private. It is actually a shared pool and not directly attached to the property, so it may be helpful to make this clearer. Overall, we liked the property, but improvements in cleanliness and cooling would make a big difference.

Absolutely stunning views! Everything we needed! Amazing infinity pool! Nice walk to the beach.

Beautiful hot spa for winter and an incredible pool. The view from the lounge room is unbeatable!

The view was amazing! The beds were comfortable! Nice location easy to get to the beach and the sand dunes.

I feel misled as I thought the pool was apart of the house. I would not have paid that much money if that was made clear on the website. It’s not stated anywhere when you’re booking that it’s a shared pool. The house could have been cleaner, the main bedroom smelt like smoke the first two days, the living room had old dried up snacks on the coffee table the bath upstairs wasn’t clean. The shower downstairs is broken and pierces your skin when you use it, so it needs a new shower head. I’m pretty sure the pictures on the website have been edited or the furniture was moved to make the house look bigger because the house is a lot smaller than I imagined from the pics online The view is the best thing about the house otherwise I’m not sure I’d call it luxury.
