1 Blue Bay View Spectacular Views of the bay

SOOK SUNRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We love the place. Great sunset from the balcony, well-stocked pantry with condiments, etc. Place was clean, well-appointed size. Modern. Tip: the beds are really nice but has different firmness - check before choosing your room! This is the downstairs apartment. Choose upstairs for better view. Direct access with private driveway, too!

Stunning Location Close to Lakeside.

BillieRating, 5 stars6 days ago
If you're a single traveller or a couple looking for peaceful, affordable accommodation in Mallacoota, Arlene's place is a great choice. We stayed overnight and thoroughly appreciated all that her space had on offer, which included a nice bedroom, living area, small kitchen and bathroom with as nice deep bathtub. Arlene has clearly put a lot of thought into making sure her guests are comfortable and catered for as we found everything we needed and didn't once need to contact her with any questions or issues. While we didn't get to meet Arlene in person, she was a very friendly communicator and provided very clear check-in instructions. All-in-all we enjoyed our short stay immensely and will definitely be returning when we visit Mallacoota next.

Luxurious 1 Bed Penthouse with Hot Tub

ShayRating, 5 stars1 month ago
The place was gorgeous, lovely atmosphere however lighting was limited at night time. Easy to find the keys and get inside however took a bit of guessing to find the parking. But overall it was an amazing stay, had everything we needed there and the spa was wonderful. Me and my partner enjoyed our stay.

Admire Harbour Views from a Hip Potts Point Sanctuary

AshiniRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We had a great stay at Tina's cozy home. It was very clean and in a very convenient neighbourhood, very easy to walk to Circular Quay/Opera House. Lots of cute cafes and restaurants in the area. View of the ocean from the room. Lots of thoughtful inclusions, had everything we needed for our stay. More affordable option in Sydney.

Luxurious Unique, Private Paradise-Kangaroo Manor

Brandi-NoelleRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Absolutely stunning views, you walk outside the sliding doors that overlooked the pool and it is breathtaking. The house was in very clean condition. I was able to take my children to the stables that’s on the property to feed the horses, donkeys and dogs. The kangaroos came to the front of the property each morning. Honestly a 10/10. Hosts were very helpful too, were super responsive and helped me find a private chef that came out to the property. Thanks again

Oysterhouse: Luxury & privacy at the water's edge

KimRating, 5 stars1 week ago
The Oyster House is absolutely amazing. The perfect place to rest and unwind with a spectacular view and peaceful surrounds. The kitchen was well stocked and the home very spacious and comfortable. We loved sitting in front of the fire and soaking up the ambiance. This was our first trip to Tasmania and we have enjoyed every minute. We will definitely be returning to the Oyster House. Thank you Nigel and Denise for sharing your special home 😊

Billabong Falls

AmandaRating, 5 stars3 months ago
This little peace of heaven was perfect for our family to celebrate my 40th birthday. From the moment we walked in the front gate to see the house amongst the gum trees and then the waterfall from the bedroom. We felt like we stepped into an old fairytale world with our own treehouse. Everywhere we walked felt like little fairy’s were waiting to greet us. The ferns throughout and stepping stones between each area made for the best adventures. The kids loved watching the frogs and tadpoles in the back pool. The natural pool was incredible and soul nourishing. Our first experience with a natural pool and it was breathtaking, especially being able to swim under the waterfalls. Thank you so much Sarah, we hope to return sometime Soon.

Elbert - Crackenback - 2BR

GilbertRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We have just returned from a fantastic 3 night stay. The property is quiet, very cosy, well equipped, nicely furnished and very clean. The owners have clearly put a lot of effort in ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The setting right on the lakeside with fire pit is beautiful with an excellent view of water, bushland and wildlife. We highly recommend this property. Thank you!

Ocean view 1 bedroom apartment

KatharinaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We really loved the location of Sammi's place, super close to shops, beach front and restaurants/cafes. Plenty to do, but also a great spot to relax and watch the waves roll in. Everything was accounted for and we felt right at home as soon as we stepped through the doors. Definitely recommend this gem and will return!

"The View" Waterfront Apartment Shoal Bay

MichaelRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Have had a lovely week at Mark and Leah's apartment in shoal bay. Loved the views and the place was great, everything you needed for a comfortable stay was provided. Shoal Bay itself has a really laid back vibe, with great places to eat right at your doorstep. On our drive home we were already planning on coming back, which speaks volumes on how much we enjoyed our stay.

The best of the best. Exceptionally clean and well appointed apartment that went above and beyond our expectations.

Aaron was friendly and easy to communicate with, and made the stay seamless. We won’t be staying anywhere else on the coast for our next trip. Thanks for everything mate. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Eventide - stunning views of city, river and park

TonyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Jordan’s place in South Perth is the perfect place for a couple to stay, close to everything. The top floor apartment was very clean and had everything needed for a self-catered stay. There is a lift in addition to the stairs which is very convenient for getting your bags up. Off street parking is also a plus. The waterfront parks are fantastic place to get out and explore with bike and walking paths and a nearby wallaby sanctuary. However, no reviewer could help but mention the view to the city from the lounge and balcony - it’s gorgeous, particularly sharing a drink on the balcony as the sun goes down. A great and recommended place to stay; hope we can come back sometime
