We had an amazing time at Mt Rumney! 🏔️ The whole family had a blast. 👨👩👧👦 We had our own privacy, and the kids loved seeing the local wildlife. 🦝🌲 I highly recommend staying here!
We loved the welcoming wallabies who were a delight. The accommodation had great views and provided an escape from the city blur. Accomodation was new and geared to be disability friendly.
Extremely Disappointing Experience — Avoid This Property
I booked this accommodation for both the first and last nights of my trip to Tasmania, and it turned out to be one of the worst experiences I've ever had. Upon arrival, the property was in an unacceptable state: unclean and unhygienic to the point where I felt uncomfortable staying even one night. Based on the condition, I decided to cancel the final night.Unfortunately, the host refused to process the cancellation within the valid timeframe and instead deflected all responsibility onto VRBO. To make matters worse, an unexpected extra payment was charged without notice, and the host refused to refund it despite multiple attempts to resolve the issue. I'm currently in dispute trying to recover the money.Throughout my interactions, the host was rude and dismissive, speaking over me and offering no constructive solutions. I strongly recommend avoiding this property — it caused unnecessary stress and wasted time during what should have been a memorable trip.
