    Excellent spot. Excellent communication. The owner is very flexible. Let us extend the checkout time and bring forward the check-in. Extra kitchen and outdoor amenities provided.

    Strange arrangement for parking where you have to drive across some lawn. The property has good outdoor dining facilities with large table and chairs, bar-b-que etc, but lacks privacy. A fence or screen between Anchor Watch and the neighbours would be good

    Spacious, well equipped ground floor apartment. Many, many helpful extras left by the host

    A separate toilet would have been nice, but no big deal. Also it would have been nice to leave windows open when not there, but thought it best to close/lock them. Maybe it would be good to be able to have them locked and open a bit as well, but again not a big deal.

    Location great. Very clean & well appointed. The treats left for us was a really nice touch:)

    It’s not a very private space and we felt a little bit like we were in a fish bowl. Sunshade roller blinds over the large living area windows would help. It wasn’t a major though.

    Lovely property and hosts. Hugely appreciated the abundance of towels available to use, brilliantly equipped kitchen, and the snacks left for us by the host. These are small things that make the world of difference to travellers! Thank you so much! Very comfortable beds and pillows. Excellent location very close to the beach, supermarket and town centre. Would be a great place to stay with a group of people or family.

    Anchor Watch was the perfect place to spend Christmas. It had everything we needed, the kitchen was well stocked and had nice touches like board games and extra towels. The location was perfect and Lorraine was very accommodating with great communication. Would highly recommend Anchor Watch.

    The location was great; one minute from northern harbour estuary with views overlooking harbour. A short walk to shops and town centre. Accommodation has been tastily refurbished quite recently, was clean and had all the amenities we required.

    It had everything anyone would need for a weekend getaway! It was so clean, light and spacious. The owners are very thoughtful and generous with great attention to detail! The location was perfect, with a fabulous park and beach around the corner and the ocean sports club a 5 mins walk, we didn’t need to go far to relax, and town was also walking distance!
