“Great little home away from home. We stayed with our one year old and it was perfect.”
+Excellent location - right near the beach. Local supermarket, shops, cafes and restaurants walking distance. Everything was great. We had everything we needed and really enjoyed our stay. We would definitely book again if coming back to Adelaide.
−Nothing. Everything was great.

“Worked really well for me being so close to the beach, shops and the places I needed to get to.”
+The location was great, I had lovely dawn and dusk walks along the beach front and it is walking distance to shops. The side street it was on was a little quieter than the Main Street. Inside was quiet, clean, tidy, simple.
−Not the owners fault, but there were ants if I didn't wipe all surfaces down straight away. Ants come with weather sometimes and it was uncharacteristically wet. I found the main bedroom a little noisy so chose to sleep in the back bedroom. All beds were comfortable.

“Tip top beach side digs.”
+Fantastic location, a very short walk to the beach. About a 10 min walk into town. Off street parking was handy, had everything needed for a holiday by the beach. The is a small verandah street side for eating dinner outside, seating inside as well. Cosy and comfortable for two people.
−Nothing we didn't like, my husband and I were happy with the unit.

“Was just what we needed for our Adelaide visit.”
+We absolutely loved the location, was a pleasant distance from all locations visited during our visit. We also very much enjoyed being able to go for our daily beach walks to reset.

“Great”
+Close to beach. Very comfortable quaint cottage.
−Not anything I didn’t like but suggest that they have some games to play. Curtains would also help for privacy during day.

+Great location, perfect for a small family. Lockup parking off street too and everything you need
−Ring sensor light needs to be adjusted to it isn’t so sensitive to movement and keep turning on. Light from this bleeds into the main bedroom

“We had a relaxing and enjoyable stay in this cute and comfortable beach cottage.”
+Sur La Mer is a small but very comfortable beach house. It was perfect for us to relax in after sightseeing in Adelaide. It contained everything we needed, and we were very glad of the air conditioning! Location is great - a quiet spot just a block away from Semaphore beach, and a couple of blocks walk to the shops on Semaphore Road - with easy access on the train or bus into Adelaide.
−Could use more hooks for hanging wet towels.

“Poor quality we informed the property manger of all above”
+The parking , close to the beach
−The furniture was of very poor quality the sofa and dinning room chair full of stains . Holes in the blanket on the sofa . The bed linen was old and poor quality . The floors were unclean . The over quality of the furniture and linen was extremely poor it all needed replacing . We had paid for 2 nights and left after one .

+A very clean, modern unit in a perfect location. About 10 minutes walk from the main street and 2 minutes to the beach. It is quiet and although a little bit tight for a 4 person family, would highly recommend. Also loved the off street secure parking and outdoor area. Awesome with little kids.
−The curtains in the front room didnt block out much light, and there is a ring spotlight outside the window. Was a little ominous being on camera, and the spotlight would also come on every time a car went past, lighting up the main bedroom. The couch is also quite old and small for a 4 person unit.
