We had a fantastic stay. Was the best Airbnb we have stayed at in a long time. Everything was so clean, it had great amenities. A wonderful apartment, lots of natural light and a great location. Even better than the photographs! We will be back for sure

Beach Front Apartment Sawtell
Mark's place was perfect for us. Our family was playing in a 3 day touch tournament so 2 bathrooms, separate toilet, washing machine, dryer, comfy beds were great. The location was convenient to the stadium and variety of cafes, pubs, restaurants and supermarkets. The beach was just a walk across the road. It was a lovely unit.

Leeann’s beachfront place
Worth the long drive. The location was amazing. Right in front of beach, playground by the beach, and restos all around. Wish we could have stayed longer.

A beautiful, neat and clean apartment in such a great location. Walking distance to beautiful beaches and the town. The balcony is huge with a stunning look out. Very safe for our nearly 2 year old also. Loved it!

Bonville on Bonville - Sawtell Waterfront Luxury
I had the pleasure of staying at Heather home for over 3 months while our home was being renovated under an insurance claim. Heather is extremely kind and was wonderful in accomadating our booking extensions each time, going above and beyond, to ensure we didn't have to move on until we could move home. Heather's home is beautiful and luxuriously styled, with all the modern amenities to ensure a comfortable stay, the surroundings were very peaceful with direct access to the river in your back yard, I highly recommend this property and host. I hope to stay here again in the future. Heather is a most generous, genuine and lovely woman, and an absolute pleasure to meet.

Headlands Beach House
We had the most incredible stay at this ocean view house! The views of the mountains and ocean are truly breathtaking - we spent hours gazing out at the stunning scenery. And when night fell, the starry sky was simply magical. The surrounding area is quaint and charming, with a lovely quiet atmosphere that's perfect for relaxation. The town is easily walkable, with great coffee shops and markets just a short stroll away. And the beaches? Absolutely stunning, and just a stone's throw from the house! The house itself is beautifully designed, with two bathrooms and a separate toilet room for added convenience. The open-plan living space is perfect for socializing, and the deck overlooking the ocean is the ultimate spot for dinner or relaxation. We can't recommend this house highly enough - the price is incredibly reasonable, especially given the amazing views and amenities. We would definitely come back, and can't wait to do so!"

Sea Salt House Sawtell
Sean has a beautiful home! With everything you need! I highly recommend, has all the facilities needed

The Outlook at Sapphire, Ocean views, Rural, Pool
Where do I start… This property is absolutely amazing — even better than the photos! It’s extremely spacious, with breathtaking views from every corner of the house. The decor is tasteful, and everything was spotless. We honestly couldn’t have asked for more. The kitchen was very well-equipped; anything we needed was readily available. The table tennis setup was a fantastic bonus for the kids. The driveway is quite steep but didn't keep us from going for a walk daily - the surroundings are serene and peaceful. We had a fantastic 3 days here. Although the rainy weather kept us from going around much, we didn’t mind at all — we just savoured the beauty and comfort of this wonderful home. Highly recommend, and we’d love to return someday!

Misty River Lodge - Spacious Riverside Retreat
This was our fourth stay at Misty River Lodge and won’t be our last. My family, including our little Jack Russell Terrier, loves Helen and Craig’s place. I especially love seeing how the gardens have evolved. We enjoy visiting the beaches up and down the coast — Scotts Head is a favourite — and we love to find new places to eat. Coffs Harbour is only a 45 minute drive north and South West Rocks is just 30 minutes south, so it’s a really central location and close to the highway but so quiet and peaceful. The bird song is relaxing and if you’re an early riser, you might even see the local swamp wallaby down near the creek. We were treated to fresh quail eggs, deliciously sweet tomatoes and tasty vegetables from the garden. As Helen said when we arrived… “Welcome home!” … because it does feel like a home away from home.

Scotts Beach Shack - Luxury getaway on the Beach
Friendly host and easy to communicate with. Nice house and close to the beach. Outdoor shower is a bonus.

River Frontage: Front & Centre!
Thank you for a fantastic stay! Your home was exactly as described and shown. The location was perfect, a beautiful outlook and walking distance to everything. Darren was also very responsive and helpful throughout the booking process and our stay. I would highly recommend staying here!

Absolute Waterfront House-Private Jetty Sleeps 8
Karen was really helpful with all our requests prior to arrival. Some really nice things left for us such as the locally ground coffee which was greatly appreciated. My son really enjoyed the fishing off the pontoon where he caught and released a 90cm flathead and a huge mud crab. Great location for exploring the local area.
