Great location for access to all parts of the island. The place is decked out with plenty of cooking utensils and staples. If you want value for money this is the place to stay

Parking and Distance to house

Parking and the walk to the residence could be outlined a lot better. For older people it’s a bit of a struggle carrying eskies and other heavy items from the parking area through the yard to the house.

Great Getaway

We had a wonderful time on Fraser basing our stay at Apurla. We were very fortunate to snap this place up in such a great location. Tony and Karen were very welcoming and accommodating - the entire place was ours to enjoy, but they were only a stones throw away if we needed anything.

Great island property.

We had a great time on Fraser, and staying in a house opposed to under canvas made it all the more enjoyable, with showers, toilets, cooking facilities, a fridge / freezer, really comfortable beds for all eight of us and not ankle deep in sand...great holiday.

Great location

The house, though small, fit our needs perfectly. Hosts have put in effort to provide all of the kitchen utensils and equipment you could possibly need. BBQ on the deck, and ample, comfortable furniture throughout the house. The location is a real winner, perfectly placed on the island, allowing us to see so many sites of Fraser.
