Great holiday we didn’t want to leave
Unit met our needs with the view and location being fantastic. Shane was very helpful and informative.
Had the option of being completely self-sufficient or a very short stroll to the Mallacoota shops.
We will definitely be back and will book the same accommodation.

Recently renovated
Lovely position overlooking the lake, walking distance to town. Host was very helpful.
Would have liked to have 2 towel rails instead of one flimsy one and fly wire screen on windows

Hi Les and Ellen,
Thanks so much for your thoughtful feedback.
You make a great point regarding fly wire screens.
Recent renovations made the previous fly wire screens incompatible with the new window winders. We have ordered these in and they'll be installed in the next week.
We'll also review the capacity of our towel rails.

Perfect location and well appointed
Such a great location - the deck is a dreamy spot at anytime of the day. Recent renovation makes everything modern again. Super comfortable beds and quality linen. Everything you'd need in the kitchen. And a great dog friendly space and yard. Walking distance to everything to love about Mallacoota!

Lovely getaway for a couple of days, being able to bring our young boxer was a bonus.
Easy accommodation to stay in and look after. So close to shopping centre and walks aplenty.

Great place to stay, especially with a boat
Very enjoyable, loved the location, access to the jetty for our boat, friendly and helpful manager (Shane). Small issue with original cleaning that was rectified/addressed in discussions with manager.

Stay at Unit 6 Bruce's Holiday Flats
The unit was very clean and well equipped. The location was fantastic - just a short walk to the shops and the waterfront.
The deck was superb providing a beautiful outlook over the lake. The jetty allowed us to moor our boat with convenient access during our stay.
