Relaxing stay with water views

Had a very nice relaxing holiday with our small dog watching the sunrises from our bed and sunsets from the balcony whilst overlooking the bay. Couldn’t swim in the bay, but plenty of beautiful beaches within driving distance. Nice house tastefully decorated with a coastal theme fitting of the location. House was set up with everything we needed and was very comfortable.

Coobowie

We enjoyed our stay at Guy & Julie's Beachfront holiday house very much. The property was very clean and comfortable, in a great location, which was very quiet and peaceful. Every day we just walked off the deck and onto the sandhills for a long walk on the beach. The fishing was also good , Gaz caught crabs, whiting and squid, unfortunately he lost he's favourite fishing rod, while out fishing, it was taken by a very large fish. We will definitely come back to this lovely house and spent some more time!!Gaz & Gaynor & Ziggy

Beautiful location

We thoroughly enjoyed out stay, it was so quiet and peaceful. The house has all you need. Plenty of crockery, glasses and cooking utensils. The view from inside takes advantage of the wonderful vista and has a lovely comfortable feel. We were lucky to have beautiful winter weather and enjoyed sitting in the sun out the back next to the chimenea and also view side out front on the verandah. The bird life is fantastic if you like to sit back and watch them go about their business. We also spent time walking on the beach and along the coastline walking trails. A visit to the local Coobowie Hotel for lunch was also enjoyable. We'll definitely be back.

Smooth Sailing - Coobowie

The description of this property being 'absolute beachfront' wasn't wrong. You step out of the front sliding door, walk through an easy path and you are on the beach. The views were beautiful! Well stocked kitchen with everything you need for your stay. Heater in the lounge room worked effectively, which was good because it was very cold. The tv was massive, and it was great that the dvd player played with no problems. We weren't really impressed that there was absolutely no privacy in the main living area due to no curtains or blinds. Having no curtains on the main window facing the beach, which is quite a public area, was a problem at night, as anyone could see in. I messaged the owner who replied saying the curtains were being made, but that didn't help us for our stay. Also, the skirting boards next to the dining table were hanging off when we got there. The ensuite next to the main bedroom is under construction, and will be nice when finished. We decided to sleep in the second bedroom as it was warmer and the mattress was more comfortable. I understand it's the country, but the shower pressure wasn't great, and adjusting the shower temperature was quite temperamental. The big dog next door barked a lot, which didn't really matter to us, but may frustrate some. Overall, the peace and quiet was lovely, the views sublime, and we were lucky with not having any rain. Although not perfect, the property was quite comfortable. The owner was attentive and helpful.
