Guest Reviews

• Guest (10/5): Excellent clean value for money. Everything you can think off is in this tiny home. Was literally a home away from home. -
• virag (10/5): - Everything
• George (10/5): -
• Kevin (10/5): Excellent facilities and a comfortable king size bed; friendly and helpful welcome and good value. - Out of town location perfect for quiet and calm restful stay. Plenty of space for car parking and manoeuvring bike trailer. Thoughtful supply of water when power out for several hours.
• Lee (9/5): Quiet, relaxing rural property - Private, relaxing rural environment. Only a short 10 minute drive to Hervey Bay. Good facilities for cooking, BBQ was great. Kind and helpful hosts, with excellent communication.
• Michaela (10/5): Super cosy and located in quiet area - We had a great weekend at Little Sunshine. It’s located in super quiet area, just 10-15 drive to Hervey Bay. The house has everything you need. It was super cosy. We wish the weather was nicer so we could use the outdoor area as well but we might use it next time! :) Thanks Sarah!
• Valerie (9/5): Charming bungalow in a peaceful setting - Lovely bungalow, tastefully decorated and very well equipped. The terrace is perfect, with a BBQ and an open fire for cozy moments. The garden is pretty and inviting. The hostess is attentive and welcoming. Ideally located in a quiet area, perfect for a relaxing stay.
• Zamora (9/5): -
• Shaun (10/5): -
• Tyler (10/5): Exceptional -
• Natasha (10/5): Fantastic cottage in rural surroundings. Loved the firepit - Great little cottage on the outskirts of Hervey Bay. It was spotlessly clean and well set up for our stay. The fire pit was a real highlight and the rural setting was very relaxing. I would highly recommend this accommodation for a short or long stay around the area. Nothing
• Britton (10/5): Exceptional -
• Courtney (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jenene (9/5): Superb - Clean, quiet
• Matthew (10/5): Exceptional - We loved everything about this property. The cleanliness, homey feel, fire pit ready to go. Just amazing. We will definately return for a quiet relaxing get away for much longer. No dislikes
• Deborah (8/5): Very good -
• Kirsty (10/5): Absolutely amazing - It was like a home away from home. It had everything we needed and more. I absolutely loved the fire pit outside and tranquility of the birds. I will definitely be back Nothing
• Paresh (8/5): Very good -
• Lindsey (10/5): Barrie and Lindsey Anniversary stay. 🩷 - We loved absolutely everything, it was peaceful, in and out was decorated beautifully, it was a great vibe and when we get time, we will definitely be back. 10/10 🫰🤗 Nothing.
• Sean (10/5): Perfect, perfect, oh and perfect. - The most perfect host, home, location, amenities, price and the list could just go on and on. The check-in instructions were concise, understandable and we felt that we had full freedom from the get-go. (Use the middle entrance, otherwise you’ll look like a plonker just sat at the gates, I was that plonker). The house was air conditioned, vibrant, extremely clean and stylish. It was equipped with everything a couple could need on their travels. It also had a really nice energy, I can’t really explain it, but it felt like a family home, a really safe space where you can relax and take a step back from the stresses of life. You will find that the house is very modern and has a deliberate touch of minimalism, but in a way that there are so many things you can use, but it’s all stored so well. Genius really. The bed was so comfortable (my partner wanted to take the rattan rug at the foot of the bed with her, but she exercised restraint). The shower was also squeaky clean (pretty much brand new) and all the necessary sanitary items provided. All in all, would gladly return here. I will also recommend this beautiful accomodation to others. From two very grateful guests I wish I booked this place for longer :(
• Chloe (10/5): Beautiful relaxed stay - Really lovely setting we loved not being surrounded by traffic. Very cute and private set up. The owner made it super comfortable and is very communicative, it has everything you could need!
• Tess (10/5): Exceeded Expectations - Our family of four, 2a, 2k stayed here and used as our base for our first trip to Hervey Bay. The hosts thought of everything, the attention to detail and everything like handwash, detergent was of high quality and kitchen cupboard well stocked. The bathroom/laundry is in the middle of the lounge and bedroom, so there's privacy and space between sleep areas. The main bed was super comfy. The host was fast with communication and anything we needed. The fenced-in space made us feel secure with the kids and private. I highly recommend Little Sunshine. No air con in the main bedroom, which would be ok usually as it has a ceiling fan and pedestal fan, but we booked during a heat wave, and I'm a weakling. The sofa bed in the lounge room was uncomfortable/hard for an adult but fine for kids. But they're very personal preferencess, obviously, so it's not a big deal.
• Becky (10/5): Exceptional -
• Tiarnah (10/5): It was really rainy weather but the property was beautiful and peaceful, like our own little home it was cozy. - Beautifully presented, clean, has all facilities you need & owners were lovely! N/A
• Modestas (10/5): Exceptional - We felt like at home 🏡.
• Neil (10/5): Good value , great spot , comfy , clean , peaceful cabin , close to Hervey Bay - Very clean , extremely well stocked and equipped, easy to find , peaceful, easy access to Hervey Bay , good value , comfy and more. Nothing
• Kay (10/5): Great Stay close to Hervey Bay - Lovely well kept little villa, all new fitting and fixtures. Lots of little extra touches like nice shampoo and toiletries. In the country but 20 mins toHervey Bay beaches ,Restaurants and Shops
• Stephanie (10/5): Quiet, well appointed, amazing accommodation. - The accommodation was amazing. Everything you could need, was provided, plus more. The kitchen was well equipped, the bedroom was comfortable and well appointed, and the bathroom was modern and included upmarket shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, hand soap and other amenities. (Not something I normally notice, but the fluffy towels smelled amazing.) The location was lovely and quiet, in a semi rural environment. I will definitely be back. There was nothing that i didn't like about this accommmodation.
• Barney (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful, clean , quiet
• Shin (10/5): The best place to stay for small family - Location, quiet place, clean
• Walls (10/5): Would have liked to use campfire but was raining, super nice place will stay again sometime in future - Has everything needed to just have a chill night Property was good really modern no damage. Just the tree out the front dropped stuff all over my car during the night.
• Grant (9/5): Superb - The peace and quiet... the bush setting
• Kylie (10/5): Fantastic setting in an absolutely beautiful location! - Fantastic location and setting. This tiny home was a home away from home. It has everything you need and wonderful hosts. Fantastic cooking facilities and essentials were provided which was great. Very new and clean and tidy.Would definitely recommend to any couple or small family. We will be going back to Little Sunshine in the near future 😊 There wasn’t anything that we didn’t like
• Sandie (10/5): Brilliant - Privacy and quiet
• Janeen (10/5): We had an extremely pleasant and comfortable stay in this exceptional accommodation. - The property was spotlessly clean and extremely comfortable. Every item you would reasonably need, and then some, was supplied. Nothing. Everything was fabulous.
• Hanka (9/5): Great quiet family getaway - Everything is well thought through and we loved having our own little space. Thanks for all the little extra treats! It’s been a really nice experience to stay here. Pretty much everything is perfect. The only thing I didn’t like was the bedding. I’m not a fan of polyester as the covers slide and don’t feel nice. But that really would be the only little tweak I can think of. It’s such a wonderful place otherwise.
• Don (10/5): An exceptional property, managed very well. - We stayed here for 10 days in early August 2024. We chose the location, outside the Hervey Bay township, to be away from the busy tourist environment near the coast but close enough to easily do coffee, shopping and restaurant in Hervey Bay. It was perfect for our needs - quiet, convenient and very comfortable. The unit is self contained and relatively new, so the bathroom, walk-in shower and full kitchen are modern and clean. Sarah provided a good selection of kitchen supplies, tea, sugar, milk even some fresh farm eggs - plus the usual salt, pepper, oil etc. The under-cover BBQ area, was a delight with atmospheric LED lighting, very inviting, we used it most evenings during our stay.
• Barry (10/5): Great eggs - The loveliest little place you can imagine with everything you could need. Real thought has gone into the decoration and planning of this little gem. With the added advantage of free fresh eggs supplied for breakfast. Nothing
• Peter (10/5): Best private accommodation we have ever stayed at. 10/10 - Extremely well presented, clean little home. The presentation was immaculate and really gave us the feeling that our enjoyment, and our bests interests were the priority.
• Jim (8/5): Very good - Everything that you could possibly need was there Also lots of little touches like fresh farm eggs and a packet of Tim Tam's. The only negative was a situation where the plug in the sink in the bathroom became stuck. It was one that you pushed down and it was supposed to pop up and empty the water. I have come across this problem before and managed to sort it but this one would not budge. I spoke to the owner and she said it had happened before and she was going to replace it but told me to keep trying and it would be OK. Well I did try and it wouldn't move. So we went out for the day and came back to a sink full dirty water which had been there since the previous night I would have liked the owner to have sent someone over to have a look at the problem or to enquire when we returned in the afternoon. Just a common courtesy and a bit of customer contact
• Sarah (10/5): 10/10 - This was honestly the most amazing accommodation I've ever stayed in! Somehow the place was cuter in person even though the photos look amazing you'll want to stay here longer this place has everything you could possibly need and is so cozy yet luxurious. The owner was also so super lovely and helpful and made the stay so much more enjoyable xo thank you so much The accommodation was perfect, couldn't fault it x
• David (10/5): A comfortable secluded accommodation which was a pleasure to stay in . - The accommodation was beautifully appointed with everything you could need .It was located not too far from Hervey Bay and close enough for us to visit relatives at Howard. The setting is peaceful and private.We enjoyed using the fire pit every night and found the BBQ a great addition. Nothing
• Chloe (10/5): Exceptional -
• Sharna (10/5): Such an amazing place to stay with the best hosts with excellent communication and facilities. - Wonderful location, so quiet but o close to everything we needed. The addition of a fire pit with well stocked wood was a truly excellent reward for a very long day that we had had. There was everything you could ask for in the kitchen and a spacious well laid out interior added to the special weekend. The communication form Chris and Sarah was awesome. Nothing. It was amazing.
• Peter (10/5): Exceptional -
• Noreen (9/5): Superb - Lots of lovely personal touches. Was very clean. Clever use of space
• Kevin (10/5): A great way to visit H. Bay and Maryborough. Quiet, comfortable and clean. - Fresh eggs for an omelette and timtams to compliment our Nespresso coffee were an unexpected treat. Sarah’s attention to detail has made this an ideal stay. Probably the best we’ve booked in 10+years. There was nothing to dislike. Sarah has all the bases covered - from tasty teas to makeup removers - and everything in between.
• Dee (10/5): Calm & peaceful! - Sarah and Chris are great hosts! The property inside and out is impeccable, with so many thoughtful touches making “Lil Sunshine” a true home from home!! It may seem a bit off the beaten path, but truly it’s a short 15 min drive down to the marina. Sarah thinks of everything, even providing freshly laid eggs from their FREE RANGE chickens! We were only passing through and stayed twice in one week (going/coming), and would gladly book in again on our next journey! Nothing!!!
• Melissa (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing location. Still close enough to everything.
• Paul (10/5): Exceptional -
• Al (10/5): We throughly enjoyed our stay! It was our home away from home! - What was there NOT to like! Sarah has gone over and above on details in this tiny house! My husband and I agreed it was so well supplied and well thought out. Almost everything you need, Sarah has thought of! Little Sunshine was a ray of sunlight in a quiet country side setting and only about a 15 min drive to the Hervey Bay esplanade with its beautiful beaches. We would highly recommend Little Sunshine tiny home. No dislikes.
• Liveandlearn (10/5): Best cottage in Queensland. - It was beautiful clean , well presented , lovely host. Highly recommend. Best stay I’ve had in Australia. It was perfect
• Miriam (10/5): Exceptional - The accommodation was lovely, very clean, comfortable and every amenitie thought about. Nice location quiet, private and a short drive to town.
• James (10/5): Exceptional - We were looking for 48 hours of complete rest, and Little Sunshine allowed us this. The tiny home is exrtremely well appointed and very comfortable. Attention to detail was obvious everywhere - fresh flowers; basic herbs, olive oil etc, in the pantry; chocolate and good-sized milk in the fridge. The king bed was very restful, and the TV was smart and easy to work. Watching the wildlife in the trees was a delight from the covered outside area, and the lawns large enough to offer peace and quiet. Even the rain was calming! Full marks! All was as it should be.
• Alison (10/5): It was a beautiful place ,peaceful, clean and would stay again - The location was beautiful ,the accommodation was ,amazing everything u needed was there ,it was clean and well designed a little gem and a lovely welcome card from hosts
• Cash (10/5): A Little Ray Of Sunshine 🎶 - A beautiful little hidden gem. Sarah and Chris have created a home away from home. The location is ideal. Quiet rural setting but easily accessible to Harvey Bay. Was a refreshing change to hotel style accommodation. Sarah and Chris have outstandingly catered to their guests needs, with added extras that give their guest that "Oh Wow" warm feelings. When next in the region we will definitely be checking Little Sunshines availability first. Loved everything. A suggestion for longer stays and work trips would be the addition of a dryer?
• Holly (10/5): Excellent - Everything, nothing to fault about it! Perfect in every way
