Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

TRULY PERFECTION
Wow - there are so many words to describe Barrakee Beach house, amazing, elaborate, harmonious, faultless, immaculate, spotless, remarkable :) It was a delight to take my daughter, daughter-in-law and grand children away for a quick get away as we all live locally. Everything provided was exceptional, all linen, towels supplied is an extra bonus. Captivating smiles on my grand children faces when they saw the toy cupboard kept them entertained for many hours. Our appreciation for an unforgettable stay is my grand daughter saying "Nan can we come back again"

Everything you could possibly need...and more.
The perfect location, house and amenities. Our extended family (from 6 to 70) all loved it. Owners very accommodating and quick to respond to messages. The house is very thoughtfully and tastefully presented with something for everyone. Felt very welcome and comfortable from the minute we walked in. A most relaxing holiday.
Highly recommend.
Thank you Glenys

It's Got The Lot
What a find. Hosts who provide everything you could need and more with personal touches to make us welcome. A great house, spotlessly presented and close to the Anglesea shops. Highly recommend ,we will definitely re- visit. Helpful hints from the host were appreciated.

'Just what we needed'
We had a perfect stay at Barakee Beach house and found it very hard to leave. It has everything. Glenys had obviously thought about every eventuality!
A quiet retreat that made it difficult to leave, I could have stayed there all day!
Thank you Glenys....I promise we will return!

This place ticks all the boxes
This is a 10 out of 10 destination for the family. Complete with indoor BBQ, snooker/pool room and SPA this place has it all. We have been to this house for the last 2 years and we intend to return next year.
There is so much to enjoy in Anglesea, the beach is kid friendly and enough of a wave for the adults as well. Our grandchildren surfed, used the ride on boats and we as a family enjoyed the Restaurants both near and far. Highly reccommend Anglesea made more enjoyable by staying at Barrakee house. As i said this place ticks all the boxes..

Everything we wanted and more..
The Barrakee Beach house was a pleasure to stay in. It was comfortable, well kept and had everything we wanted and needed. I wish we had more time to stay and spend some time in that spa!
