Guest Reviews
- Jane (10/5): -
- Sasha (10/5): Incredible views and a thoughtful host - The hostess Tess met us when we arrived and gave us a little tour. She was super welcoming and sweet. Even gave us suggestions for dinner places and just overall good places in town. Plus the whole place is stocked to the brim with everything you could possibly need. From kitchenware, to spices, to makeup wipes! Very thoughtful host. Plus, I mean look at that view, how could you not fall in love with the place. We will 100% be back.

- Susan (9/5): We had a great stay, close to Byron for the lighthouse walk, close to Brunswick and close to the local beach, we would - Cleanliness The pool and the location, great kitchen and air con and TV It was a little cramped but suitable for two people who are not spending to much time in the room
- Annette (8/5): - Das Apartment war eher klein aber sehr gemütlich eingerichtet (Scandi-Stil), alles hell, freundlich, modern
Die Küche enthält alles was man braucht, danke auch für gratis Tee und Kaffee
Der Pool war super temperiert und ausreichend groß zum Bahnen schwimmen, der Poolbereich perfekt zum Entspanben und die Aussicht fantastisch
Die Gastgeber waren sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit, wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt
Parken auf der gegenüberliegenden Straßenseite kostenfrei und zu den Shops nur ein paar Fahrminuten, sehr zentral gelegen zu Ausflugszielen und Orten in der Nähe Alles wunderbar
- Hae-Uk (9/5): Loved my stay, it felt cosy and private in a lovely surrounding. I booked already to come back. - Location was great with a beautiful view from top of the hills and oceanview in the background. Lovely swimming pool with same view. It was quiet and private. Owners very helpful and friendly. Clear instructions for everything necessary. I liked their environmental consciousness, which showed in their products. And a bonus was the Japanese toilet, loved it. It was quite small, but very doable for me, staying by myself. I would have liked lighter bedside lamps for reading instead of using the bright ceiling lights.

- Heather (10/5): - Very good and clear communication from the hosts and a warm friendly welcoming too. Helped with our luggage and showed us around. The accommodation is absolutely gorgeous, clean and has everything and more you could need for a comfy stay. The pool and ocean views are also incredible. There was nothing we disliked!
- sarah (10/5): Awesome will defo be back - Excellent location, good facilities and beautiful view
- Ines (5/5): - La vista No me gusto que estuviera en la casa de los dueños. Prefiero algo mas privado y pense que era eso. No era comodo el alojamiento, todo muy ajustado. El baño diminuto incomodo. La decoracion todo medio antiguo. El precio no se condice con el lugar.
- Stephen (9/5): Awesome Views, Great Room, Brilliant Hosts - Tess and Jay were great hosts. Really accommodating, great communication and very helpful. They allowed me to check in early because I had to change my travel plans last minute which saved me from lugging my bags around all day. The place itself is really nice, awesome views of the beach and a really nice clean pool ( I think it's saltwater)
It had everything I needed, was very clean a d tidy, the bed was comfy, they had black out curtains which was a nice touch. They even had one of those fancy bide's which was an experience in itself.
The highlight of my stay was being greeted by two gorgeous dogs who wanted to say hello.
Would definitely stay here again if I was passing back through the area.

- Ka Hei Gavin (10/5): -
- Maria (10/5): - The pool area is amazing. Nothing
- Neil (8/5): -
- Christy (7/5): Great accommodation close to great scenic spots. - Hospitality was exceptional, Jay and Tess were excellent hosts. The location to nearby tourist spots was ideal! The accommodation had everything needed to have an enjoyable stay. A little hard to get comfortable on the couch as it was small and hard to get in position to watch tv.
- Dailigh (10/5): Beautiful place with lovely views. - The host was so friendly and welcoming.
Everything was clean and had everything we needed.
- robert (5/5): Quiet accommodation in the hills above Ocean Shores - Quiet location, nice small kitchen and comfortable bed Some things about this accommodation were frustrating - the bedroom is very tight with only room for one case and very little room on one side of the bed. There is only one backed kitchen chair plus a small stool. After a day out sightseeing we just wanted to have a quiet night watching some normal TV (free to air) but the TV so complicated, we gave up. Of all the stays this trip this was the most disappointing - expensive for what it was. It is a shoes off venue which we weren't keen on. Car parking is across the road on a grass verge.
- Loic (10/5): -
- Ivan (9/5): Very comfortable for our purposes to visit family. - Lovely place to stay for our purpose to be with family. The pool was an added bonus. All fine.
- Con (10/5): -
- Yellowjen (10/5): - The room is quiet and very comfortable, located right in front of the pool with incredible views of the horizon. We visited during whale season, and you can even see them jumping in the distance from your room
- Sian (10/5): -
- Narelle (8/5): -
- Power (9/5): It was a lovely experience. Couldn’t get over the views - Beautiful view and spacious living room The couch was a little awkward to sit on and watch a movie at the end of the day
- Anushree (6/5): The overall stay was good and the best part is the location of the house which is closer to most of the tourist attracti - We loved the boho style themed rooms, beautiful view and the cleanliness. The owner himself is very caring n responsive in the messages. Everything was very good except the beds. We found the mattress is very soft which leads to back pain and disruptive sleep. Also the bed for the child was actually not a bed it’s not suitable for sleeping purpose.
- Anthea (8/5): We had a relaxing overnight stay. Hosts were helpful, met us and showed us round. - No breakfast. All self catering. All good
- Roksana (7/5): - Location was great with stunning views around I guess it was part of the owner's house built underneath which was great for safety and really nice host.
- Janet (8/5): We enjoyed our stay and would recommend for couples or single traveller - Close to where we wanted to be. Very tidy and clean Had everything we needed. Bed was comfortable. I think it was good, could not fault it.
- Jean (10/5): Peaceful, beautiful, comfortable and with everything you could want and more in an apartment. -

Good location for exploring this lovely area of beaches and hinterland.
Host was lovely and very helpful recommending places to see, and for meals. Initial access was a bit daunting at first until became familiar. Reading the messages before arriving helps, I didn't because I was driving.
- Juliana (8/5): Very good -
- Hislop (8/5): It was a comfortable place,clean and warm which is all we really require. - We had our own breakfast
Location wasn’t the easiest as we don’t know the area it GPS got us there Everything was Satisfactory.
The internet wasn’t very strong
- Kayla (10/5): Perfect getaway with everything you need/desire. - I would highly recommend anyone coming through Brunswick heads to book with Tess and Jay. They were so incredibly accommodating and the house was equipped with everything you would want in a getaway home. Not to mention the beautiful views and pool! This is so much more than a queen bedroom, it is an entire granny flat with both a home-y and relaxing feel. Nil.
- Scott (8/5): Very good - Great views. Convenient to the location of our function. The Hosts children provided transport for the night. A summer stay would be better. A bit on the small side.
- Natalie (8/5): It felt very comfortable and safe for my partner and I, we felt very grateful to be there. - Location was really lovely, close to the highway but it wasn't loud at all inside, very helpful location at the time for us personally. Nothing

- Craig (6/5): Adequate, pleasant host nice garden view - location was perfect for me the dark street at night, and off site parking felt like a granny flat in someone's garden. This was adequate, but felt a little strange. I often stay in the region and the price I felt was high for the 1 stay at $200

Super quiet area but close to everything. Room was cute and has everything you need. Spacious and clean, with private access so you feel like you can relax. Great furnishings and an excellent stay! We will definitely be back. The only thing that wasn't 10/10 was the pillows!!!! Time for a replacement, but I do find this with many hotels/bnbs.
