Our Thomas Street home at Middleton Beach has 360 degree views from the surrounding green hills to the bright blue sea. This brand-new, ecologically designed, rammed earth home has been decorated with spectacular indigenous art (for sale by request). We are offering you 4 large bedrooms, two with ensuites and private outside entry. There are fantastic entertaining spaces with polished concrete floors. The cook’s kitchen has first-class appliances. There are comfortable furnishings throughout, as well as a lovely piano to enjoy. Bi-fold doors open onto a screened and gas-heated rear deck. Why not relax in the professional series swim spa, then enjoy the entertainment system while you rustle up a fun and easy dinner on the barbecue where there is also easy access to cool refreshments from the bar-fridge.

Everything you need for a pleasurable stay that’s as exciting as you desire, while still offering every comfort you could want, awaits you.

Great stay
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Alec met us upon arrival to run through the house and swim spa. The beds were very comfortable and the entire house was very clean and spacious. The swim spa was great. It was clean and a hit with all guests. The kitchen was well equipped and had so many appliances you wouldn’t normally have at other stays including an air fryer, rice cooker and slow cooker. Definitely recommend staying here and hope to come back again in the future.

Wonderfully spacious and well positioned property
The home is very spacious so it was great for a family get away. The two main bedrooms have ensuites so we all felt we had our own spaces. Bedrooms have comfy beds - the linen and bedroom furniture is basic but fine. The Aboriginal art amongst the home is a nice touch. The home is positioned well to be able to walk to bakery, pub and cafe. We drove to the local beaches but the swim spa was a great feature for when we wanted a dip. Would stay again

Nice house, terrible host. Beware of price scamming. Detailed review.
It started with the check in process. At 12pm on the day of check in we’d received no instructions/ correspondence from the host. Which was a little disconcerting having booked 12mths prior and were mid-drive from interstate. We left multiple messages, when at 2pm the host finally called to say the keys would be left out. We arrived to find overflowing bins, no towels and one of the king beds had no linen at all, with none to be found. Other reviews mention this too. Disappointingly the host never had the decency to return our messages so we used our beach towels for showers and two old ones found in a linen cupboard, and went and purchased linen for the bed. Upon departure all beds were made, towels and kitchen tea towels washed, dishwasher on and all rubbish removed. So you can imagine the surprise when almost 3 weeks after our stay we were charged an additional $500 on our credit card without any correspondence. The charges were apparently for pet fee, additional guest fee, damage to the roller door, scratches on the back door and damage to flywire door. When the accomodation was booked (Dec '21) it was listed as pet friendly (which can be substantiated) and no additional fees were mentioned Stayz have confirmed this charge should not have been added. We booked for 4ppl and it accommodates 8, we had a friend stay one night (well below capacity) and he has taken a fee for ‘extra guests. Again Stayz have confirmed that these charges are against policy. We were advised that the garage was for personal use, bikes, surfboards were not included so wet left the car out and never even opened the garage so have no idea about this either. The scratch damage from our dog is blatantly untrue because we were with her the whole time and she has been extensively trained. Finally the flywire door was problematic from arrival, not damaged just rigid on its tracks. Nothing a good clean wouldn’t fix, something I’d expect a holiday property in this price range would have maintained for guests prior to arrival. The unsubstantiated costs have been charged to our credit card without permission, correspondence or evidence. It's clearly a scam to recoup costs incurred either through previous occupants or owner damage. At time of writing we’ve still not heard back from the host and are in dialogue with Stayz, who too haven’t been able to get hold of him as we try to recoup the additional charges. So please beware if booking this place!

Overall experience was as expected and advertised. Quiet location and accessible to all local places
Only a couple of considerations. The lounges look fantastic but are not very comfortable and tend to slide forward on them. The rug in the main lounge was a trip hazard as it kept curling up. At this end of the market unlimited wifi is expected. A booklet with all information and FAQ of the house would be good. Needs a secure side gate. A key safe out front would be worthwhile. None of these things are deal breakers but would bring the property up to 5 stars.

Recommended for family gathering
Our stay at Alec's property exceeded expectations. From the moment I walked in the door, the care and attention to detail was evident and the home made a fantastic first impression - both high end styling and impressively precise cleanliness were very apparent and wonderful to see. Alex communicated well and was very kind over the phone. The hot tub was a hit with family friends, the BBQ set up and big kitchen were perfect for cooking for so a large group. We had 8 people stay and it was nice that not one, but two of the rooms had single beds as our family friends could share the room but have their own space. Closets were large and walk in, two bedrooms had ensuites, and the family shared bathroom was great for little kids. I would recommend this property to anyone who wants a spacious holiday house and wants to a couple families or couples. Price point is competitive based on location, house size, amenities (including swim spa hot tub) and facilities in general. 10/10 would go again in future years. Thankyou Alec for a lovely stay! We tidied and cleaned behind ourselves as we checked out. Your cleaners do an amazing job and Thankyou to them directly! House was exquisitely cleaned and presented 😄

Nice house and good service
Excellent for what was a nice trip with some mates, neighbours get angry at any sound after dark which was slightly annoying but was fine to deal with and was the only negative of staying here. Owner is respectable if respected by yourself in looking after the property. A good home for a holiday also due to the amazing culture displayed throughout artwork in the house which added to the experience.

Not worth the price
The house itself was nice enough but no smart tv in main lounge upstairs, only tiny one in one of the 4 bedrooms, bed linen and beds were not the quality we’ve had before which have been less expensive for 2 nights stay. Having to meet the owner to take us through everything rather than a diary with all the information. Hardly any condiments supplied again compared to other beautiful places we have stayed in for much less we could not check in till 4pm which is the latest we’ve ever had for check in.. Overall would not stay again..

Fabulous retreat
We had a lovely relaxing stay at Middleton. The house was clean and the layout fabulous with two living areas and bedrooms all on ground floor. The swim spa was clean and easy to use. Great to chill out and enjoy mornings and evenings. The house is close to everything in Middleton. Could not have asked for a better place to stay and Alec was so friendly, meeting us and showing us through. We will be back

Such a shame, miss represented
Unfortunately the false listing of property features really disappointed our overall stay. We had 2 adults and 4 teenagers stay for 5 nights. The home is nice & well appointed. Middleton is a great location, unfortunately I wouldn’t recommend this property due to our experience. Despite multiple efforts to contact the host Alec, via sms, phone calls and even through the Stayz app even to this day I still haven’t received a call or sms to even acknowledge he has misrepresented or that he had found the keys from our early check out last week…. This property is misrepresented: no wifi available (teenagers necessity) advertised as available, actually a 10 minute fast paced walk to the beach (not 5 as advertised), Alex offered towels for the pool, yet none for bathrooms, we had to purchase towels, hand towels & face washers for the bathrooms from Victor Harbor for our stay, the outside door mats were shabby and needing a good clean, one of the bed sheets had recent blood on it from previous use or from the laundering or making the fresh bed. double garage was not available, could only park one car inside, other car stayed outside as there was a desk and lounge in storage taking up the needed second spot, No Ping Pong Table to be found, Smart TVs unable to be used as ‘Smart TVs’ as they wouldn’t connect to wifi either, the rear lawn was well overgrown, Such as shame for these simple things to easily be right… Really disappointing
