• Lise (8/5): Overall we liked the feel of the house. - It was comfortable. The kitchen well equipped, the barbecue good, the shower good and the bed comfortable . Cleanliness. The fans in the bathroom were very dirty. The doors were very dirty. The TV remote or its batteries were flaky.
• kerryn (10/5): - Great value for money Small but well equiped Couldnt find a milk frother to make a coffee but that was a minor problem
• Kayleen (10/5): Great place to stay. Hosts lovely to deal with. Would recommend. - Comfy bed, great shower, good location. It had everything we needed. Nothing to dislike. Just had to give the door a bit of a shove after putting the code in.
• Petrina (10/5): Awesome place and would definitely stay again! - Excellent location, very clean and comfortable, great bed - everything you could need was at hand in the unit. So good to be able to bring our dog 🐕 🙏 Dog friendly but still clean. Maybe instructions regarding netflix etc. Do we have to use our password while staying..?
• Susan (8/5): Comfortable, cosy. - That we could have our dog with us. That we were close by to a great pier for fishing. When the washing machine was on the whole place shook! The couch needed a vacuum/clean beneath the cushions. It would be good to have a lock for the gate to ensure pets are secure.
• Jennifer (10/5): Was happy with everything will book again in the near future - No complaints ,quiet light and airy ,clean and very well equipped
• Julia (9/5): - Great location, well equiped kitchen and clean. A cute little place. Nothing
• Tan (7/5): -
• Brian (7/5): Comfortable and well located. - Very well set up with everything one needs (except spare toilet roll, or I couldn't find it). Pleasant surrounds but quite a lot of early morning road noise. All appliances seemed in good condition. The extreme coughing and smoking from the next door unit was awful; it seemed to go on for ever. Smoke entered our unit.
• Brown (10/5): Very nice accommodation. Quick responses from the hosts when contacted. Quiet and relaxing accommod - Location was great. Close to dog beach and shops Had trouble with the WiFi. I don't consider this a big issue. :0 )
• Debra (8/5): -
• Vanessa (9/5): Wonderful unit, great location, clean and close to everything! - Apt clean and location great and everything you need. The neighbouring unit member outside smoking and coughing seemed like the whole day and evening. Smoke seemed to come into our unit from next door neighbouring unit.

• Bonnie (9/5): Superb - Pet friendly and good location.
• Susan (8/5): Ocean Grove Getaway - The unit was lovely and clean with everything we needed for our stay. Nathan and Janell were very easy to deal with. The location was good, very close to restaurants and the beach, and just a short drive to neighbouring towns. The unit was small. With 4 of us and our German Shepard, it was a little cosy.
• Annette (9/5): Well equipped & clean 2 bed unit in fantastic location. - Fantastic location - walk to everything in Ocean Grove. Property was well equipped and the owners were very friendly and responsive. Nothing - we would stay here again and recommend it to others!

• Tegan (7/5): We had a great stay, close to all amenities of ocean grove - Door code was easy to use, hosts were easy to communicate with. Bed and couch was really comfy. Great location, nice cafe next door for breaky. Great that it’s pet friendly! Living space is quite small but it is only a unit. No other complaints
• Allan (10/5): it was just great - Grab rail in the shower would have been handy
• Champagne (6/5): Convenient, Clean & Value for Money - Facilities were as described and pictured Budget priced compared to other local options There was only one car park and it is on a busy road so parking was a challenge. Apartment in quite small so lounge space is limited but you get what you pay for
• Luana (4/5): As above - The location and being pet friendly I am sorry to say this but my partner and I have travelled across many countries around the world but haven’t never come across a place like this . Really disappointed with the shower could only have the hot water tap turned on as if cold was turned on it was way too cold and hot water was just warm not enough presser in shower head . There was a urine smell from the bathroom very bad we had to keep the door closed. Other tenants did not respect noise limit as at 3:30am they were talking loudly and slamming gate and car doors my dog woke up scared and started barking . The only thing that was great about this place was the location.
• Andrew (8/5): Very good - Pet friendly who hosted were great thanks for allowing our dog to stay N/a
• Lisa (8/5): Very good - Communication from host was excellent. Easy process from start to finish. Accommodation was comfy, clean and in a great location! Highly recommend. Water pressure in shower not great!
• Fiona (8/5): Comfortable and enjoyable way to holiday with our beloved dog! - Great communication with hosts. Pet friendly. Private. Great location. Although I understand that being pet friendly means there will be pet smells, the "dog smell" when we walked in was a bit overwhelming.

• Tamika (10/5): Exceptional -
• Thomas (8/5): Very good - Found the unit very clean and comfortable
• Iris (10/5): Very pleasant. - It is a good location, just a short drive to Ocean Grove Surf Beach. Drive to town but very close—plenty of places to eat there. A straightforward system for getting keys etc as I arrived quite late in the day. Quite stay and heard no noise or bother from other tenants. The property owner was very gracious and they had good communication.
• Alison (9/5): The four of us had a lovely time here, there was just enough space for all of us without feeling crowded. - It was modern and well appointed. Very close to walking trails and only a short walk to shops. A minor detail, but there was only a high bench to eat at, no table.
• Kelly (10/5): Belle Retreat was a lovely place to stay: great location, clean and very comfortable. I’m looking forward to returning o -
• Mary (10/5): Exceptional -
• Tara (7/5): Good -
• Michael (10/5): Exceptional - Clean and well-presented two-bedroom unit with a really well-equipped kitchen, in a great location
• Karinda (9/5): Beautiful little house, has everything you need and close to all the necessary things. - Pretty good location - quick drive to beach and cafes. One was walking distance. Beautifully presented, cute little enclosed courtyard & coffee machine with yummy biscuits! Nothing really, would stay again, found it a little bit expensive for what we wanted but seems true to the area.
• Stewart (9/5): Great place to stay for a relaxing weekend in a great position -
• Anonymous (8/5): Very good -
• Jennifer (10/5): Janell was sensational to deal with and extremely accommodating. - Location was amazing, coffee shop 2 minute walk Perhaps a bit of grass in the front courtyard
• Alex (10/5): Exceptional -
• Amy (10/5): Lovely apartment with everything you need - Perfect apartment for a short visit to OG. Very clean and comfortable with a nice courtyard. Walking distance to the beach and shops. The apartment had everything you could need, including coffee pods and small snacks on arrival. The lounge room might have been a little too small for a longer stay as a group and the courtyard is more suited to a smaller dog. It would have been good to have a lock on the gate to secure the courtyard.
• Teena (9/5): Superb -
• Tara (10/5): Exceptional -
• Karey (9/5): Cute, clean pet friendly accommodation - super clean, cute accommodation. enclosed fence was perfect for us with a dog. was possibly slightly too small but the three of us & dog but definitely did the job. highly recommend nothing
• Stacey (7/5): Great location, perfect for a young family - A lovely stay in a pet-friendly unit in close proximity to the river walk. A short drive or easy walk to the main street and beach. The unit was very clean and provided everything you could need, the kitchen was very well stocked and included helpful extras like gladwrap. The 2nd TV in the kids bedroom was a lovely surprise and put to good use after a big day at the beach. The hosts were very helpful and check-in was seamless. It's quite a small unit with a tiny courtyard so best suited to small dogs who don't require much space. It was great to find lots of pet friendly cafes nearby and also the local dog beaches at Ocean Grove, Barwon Heads and Point Lonsdale that are accessible for off lead play all day and at any time of the year. The unit was smaller than expected given the price for our stay. That said the hosts have made very good use of the small space and provided everything needed for a comfortable stay.
• Mel (9/5): nice stay, clean and comfortable - clean
• Colleen (10/5): Cosy getaway - It was a lovely comfortable cosy cottage stay Facilities were great Nothing not to like. It was perfect
• Travellingkjs (7/5): Good -
• Jane (8/5): Very good -
• Meg (8/5): Very good -
• Hock (7/5): Good -
• David (5/5): Clean facility, nice host, dangerous driveway access and I'm sorry, very expensive for what it is. - The driveway access onto a busy main road on a blind spot corner was dangerous & problematic to say the least. It was difficult to park our car in the allocated No 2 parking spot as a trailer (missing a wheel) was parked in a no parking area critical to where we needed to make a three/five point parking manoeuvre. The host was lovely when trying to sort out an issue using the access code and the Byron Bay cookies were nice to have with a cup of tea, thank you.
• Singh (7/5): Good -
• Gerry (8/5): Very good -
• Suzie (10/5): Exceptional - Location was great, just what we wanted! The place was clean & cosy. Perfect for a little getaway.
• Chris (10/5): Fantastic property in a wonderful location. - Beautifully decorated with everything you need for a short or long stay. Also close to everything (beach, river, shops). Wonderful to be able to bring our dog away for the week too (he was in heaven).
• Jemma (10/5): very lovely - it was clean and tidy when we arrived. small, but perfect for just a one night stay 😊 there was no instructions on how they wanted the place on check out.
• Carly (10/5): A bright and homely stay - We loved the layout of this home and the bedrooms are a decent size. A nice bright and comfortable space with an added bonus of some books and games for the kids. A very cute and private outdoor area too! The location and communication were perfect. We had a lovely stay! There was nothing we didn't like.
• Michele (10/5): Exceptional - Very comfortable place in a good location. Loved that it was pet friendly 😊 Couldn't fault anything
