Perth 2010: where we stay in MR

Judging from the pictures, I liked what i saw most in Stayz Holiday... but was really indecisive and spoiled by choices. Knowing that we have 2 elderly (with a special need on sight problem to take care of) and 2 kiddos, the room configuration and the ambient of the house/room became the utmost priority to be considering.

After a long browsing and checking, corresponding and few rounds of discussion with SC, I decided and confirmed on Gnarabup Beach House. As Jane replied my email that, "Downstairs - bedroom one has a queen bed, bedroom 2 has 3 singles ( a bunk and a single); Loft/mezzanine area - this is quite spacious but it shares airspace with the kitchen/lounge area and there is a double bed and a single up there...", I thought, we can just occupy the 2 rooms downstairs and skip the loft area. The location of the house is just 10 km away from the town of Margaret River.

The true is, it was the cheapest among all: A$160 per night per house that can fit comfortably 6 adults. [My second choice, which is very style and characteristic showing in the website, was A$310 per night per house]

Jiejie was super thrilled with the house: the verandah, the double volume of the kitchen/lounge space, and staircase. She was particularly very fond of the bunk bed, offered her self to sleep on the top bed while daddy slept below. The verandah was so inviting and made her willingly ate breakfast with daddy every morning (picture above); Not forgetting the big bathtub in the bathroom allowed both sisters had some water fun together! The wood heater that lightened up by daddy every night was an eye opening to her. You can see more on the house through here.

The neighbourhood seems quiet, I guess most of them like us, ain't local, rented a house there and were out every morning and return to the house around 5 or 6 in the afternoon. We did not get to meet the owner of the house. Perhaps they watched us from far. The house was not big, but is a good size for Jiejie to mingle around. It was like vacant for a long time, webby ceiling when you look up, dusty air when light shine in... imagine you are like powdering the sofa once you get up from the seat.. :p (it bothered me a little). Clean bathroom though. Good thing is that it provided a washing machine and we brought our own linen to make our selves comfortable:).

It would be prefect if the house is cleaner. But... somehow, I'm glad that the house wasn't haunted ;p and we checked-out the house peacefully (and little bomber slept through the nights).
