Guest Reviews
- Lucinta (10/5): Beautiful spacious villa with the most beautiful beach view. - Beautiful cabin.

- Virginie (9/5): Sans aucune hésitation - Tout ! L'emplacement face à la mer, un lieu magique.
- Andrea (10/5): -
- Russell (10/5): Enchanting shack, right by the beach, lovely and friendly hosts - When we arrived we were right away enchanted by the cute shacks and the location, across the road from the beach. It was so easy to check ourselves in, get comfortable and simply enjoy the lovely sunset for dinner and breakfast on the balcony, simply enchanting. Not much negative to say, we were a little worried that snakes would get into the house as it was fully open everywhere with no fly screens, but they would have ruined the atmosphere, so we didn't mind, just had to close up everything for the night.

- smith (9/5): Love it, can’t wait to return! - The beach shack has a wonderful holiday vibe, you’ll instantly feel relaxed. The best location in 1770 it’s perfect!

Door de open houten constructie heb je bij warmte haast geen airco nodig (die is er overigens wel). Midden in het groen met vogels om je heen en uitzicht op zee, zit je hier helemaal top! De villa is niet echt goed afsluitbaar, maar we zijn maar uitgegaan van vertrouwen in de mens.
- Marta (9/5): Loved it - we will come back - The location with the view in the sea, the patio with the hammock were a real winner It wasn’t a problem for us but the room was up a good few flights of stairs.
- Leanne (10/5): -
- Julie (10/5): glorious location felt at home accommodation was truly lovely -

- Tracey (9/5): Will be coming back again 100% - Beautiful outlook in the afternoon sun with a great atmosphere sitting in the surrounds The location for a walk with beautiful scenery, very serene.
My husband especially liked the beach bar at the bottom of the steps.
- Jackie (10/5): Best beach shack I have ever stayed in - Beautiful furnishings, location amazing. So minor, but we were in the second beach shack and although we had views over the sea the roof in front of us obstructed a lot of the view. Best to go for the Sunset villa - on the lowest floor
- Grant (10/5): Best beach bungalow with great views 😁 - So close to beach! The property was beautiful, had two nights here and loved every moment. Will definitely be back 😀 For us this property was perfect!
- Shaunagh (10/5): -
- Mandy (9/5): Tropical romantic oasis. - Location was incredible, sea views, amongst tropical gardens. The shack had everything we needed, all items provided were well thought out for a comfortable stay. Loved it all.
- Mackenzie (8/5): Awesome location, close to the beach and food! - The view was amazing and definitely a awesome overall vibe of the shack itself and great pub just down stairs the beds were a bit unclear but definitely not anything to major
- Mark (10/5): -
- Ben (10/5): Such a beautiful location to wake up to and the place is fabulous wish we spent more nights there - Beautiful location and super host Kathy.
- Courtney (8/5): Great views, great property! Highly recommend. - Exceptional location! Very cosy and comfortable. Be aware of the stairs with lots of luggage
- Jack (10/5): Amazing. - The views, Location and staff were all incredible
- Anne (8/5): Really cool house, enjoyed our stay. - The beach shacks are magical with great views and spacious stocked with everything you need. We could charge our Tesla at one of the parking spots. The location is amazing for walks around 1770 and to go on tours with the Larc and to the Reef. Since the house is open we had massive bugs flying in and out. The mattress in the master bedroom is ready for a replacement. One of the activities in the book (kangaroo sanctuary) opening hours are incorrect (it’s 5-6pm but really not recommended unless you just want to see kangaroos and can ignore the owners extremist views and incorrect facts about kangaroos). Our first couple of days we couldn’t swim in the bay because of an algae sediment that was rotting in there, the whole of 1770 stank and apparently it’s a recurring event every summer. There is never anyone at reception.

- Siska (8/5): Uniek ingerichte, schone accommodatie in het mooie, rustige Town 1770. - Uniek ingerichte accommodatie aan de zee in het prachtige Town 1770. In Town 1770 is niet veel te doen. Je moet voor veel zaken met de auto reizen. Leuk restaurant met vriendelijk personeel naast het appartement.
- Melinda (10/5): Wonderful, we would stay here again. - The property was gorgeous, it had a real treehouse feel. We were on the second unit up the stairs so it also felt very private. This was walking distance to the beach which was amazing. We had four people, but it slept up to 6 so it was very spacious. We really loved spending time on the balcony overlooking the beach. There were no good dining options in walking distance (the restaurant downstairs was average and didn't start serving coffee until 10:30), however it was less than a 10min drive to some great options and the cooking facilities in the room were wonderful.
- Melissa (10/5): -
- Jeff (6/5): Stay here if yr 50 or less - The stair you had to climb to get to your room
- Michael (10/5): The staff, the position and the property itself were perfect for the feel of the town. - The facilities and styling of the ’treehouse’ were perfectly suited to the environment. We loved everything about this property
- Delwyn (7/5): -
- CECELIA (10/5): - Superb location,spotlessly clean ,fresh flowers in the room,fantastic view,tranquil ,a fantastic place to unwind and escape the hustle bustle of life -will book again 🥂

- Ashan (10/5): -
- Sam (10/5): -
- Livia (10/5): Such a lovely place - great view! - It’s a very lovely, hidden gem. Great views! Nice Barbecue on the veranda. We loved it! Be aware of the temperature and get some
mozzy spray — the living room is outdoors (which makes the place special), but one of the two bedroom AC units wasn’t working. Luckily, the weather was nice, so it didn’t get too hot.
- DONNA (10/5): - Amazing accommodation in the perfect location! Right across the road to the beach! Incredible views! The best vacation ever!
- John (10/5): Loved it, hope there is discounts for weekly stays, Will definately be back. - No breakfast, location is fantastic. We spotted this place when visiting 1770 while staying at Agness Waters a few weeks ago, then noticed it on the net. Next stay will be in the tree house, best view. Excellent location right next to the pub and on the beach. Beautiful gardens and friendly staff. Win win.
- Nick (10/5): - The apartment was clean, bright and airy. With all the amenities to make the stay perfect for a family. We really enjoyed relaxing on the verandah each evening, looking across to the beach over the road That we only stayed 3 nights
- Blair (8/5): -
- Catherine (10/5): - La vue,la tranquillité,l’hospitalité de l’hôtesse. Si vous aimez les endroits intimes et authentiques.Beach Shacks est pour vous.
Entre rêve et paradis! Rien.les escaliers vous font faire de l’exercice,alors profitez-en!
- Wayne (8/5): -
- Melissa (10/5): -
- Ashan (10/5): A great location and a soothing yet uplifting setting. Really enjoyed the stay. Highly recommended! -
- Carolyn (10/5): Paradise, will definitely be back - Everything! Position and unique handcrafted design. The deck, the windows and doors allowed beautiful breezes to flow through. Nothing
- Leigh & Mark (10/5): Perfect getaway for couples and families alike. - We were looking for a quiet place to spend a week where we could relax and recharge. The Beach Shack was perfect. It looked just like the pictures online. It was spacious, comfortable, well-appointed with everything you could want or need. The extra little touches made it all the more special.
The beach was just over the road. The sunsets were picture perfect and the view during the day was equally spectacular. Next door was a bar and restaurant. We could not hear any noise as it was mainly people having a quiet drink and dinner to enjoy the view. A short walk to the Marina and you find a few more really nice restaurants and other facilities. There were a few stairs to get to our accommodation. We were aware and okay with that. For anyone with mobility issues maybe check with the host before booking to see if there is an alternative.
- Roger (10/5): -
- Belinda (8/5): lovely relaxing 4-night break away - great location, great view, fabulous verandah with sea breezes quiet a few stairs up to the room, but necessary for the view
- Adam (5/5): Amazing location , left a night earlier because neither my wife or I could sleep on the mattress provided - Location amazing The bed was horrible!
- kate (10/5): -
- Giny (8/5): -
- Warwick (9/5): Comfy appartment with loads of character. - Comfy with a lot of character.
Right opposite the beach. Only issue was the stairs.
- Christine (10/5): Serenity - The view from the Treehouse was even better than seen in photos. Made it very hard to even want to leave the accommodation to go and explore the town. We did eventually drag ourselves out and walk up to the headland. We had the best burger from the Coral Sea takeaways in Agnes Waters, bringing it back to the treehouse deck and watching the sunset. We also enjoyed cooking on the BBQ on the deck. Facilities were ample. It was a bit pricey
- Clint (10/5): - Ocean view, walk across the road and you're on the beach, so relaxing, absolutely beautiful 👌
- cindy (10/5): Perfect setting to relax and recharge at 1770 Beach Shacks! - My husband and I loved the location, the unique charm of the property, the layout of the property was perfect! The deck was a great space to relax in the afternoon sun in the hammock, parking was easy. We loved everything about 1770 Beach Shacks!
- James (10/5): - Character, experience, connection with this beautiful part of the world
- Paul (9/5): Nice location and spacious apartments, well equipped - Sea views, easy walk to beach, tours, restaurants.
- Brian (10/5): - This was such a beautiful place. Great to unwind and relax, Jan met us at the shack, such a nice lady who could not be more helpful. Everything was perfect from start to finish
- Gavin (10/5): Exceeded all expectations and will definitely be back with the family. - The room was incredible and the views where completely astounding.
- Clive (9/5): A stay you will always remember - We loved the magnificent view and location. The cabin was unique. The owners were friendly and helpful.
- Arleen (9/5): - The accommodation was beautiful and clean, has everything you need. There is a pub next door which worked out well for a few afternoon drinks watching the sunset. The host was amazing. The room we stayed in was on the second level and our main view was the roof of the apartment in front of us. There is a lot of stairs to the higher levels and is quite steep, My partner and I were ok with this though, but it made me think about people who didn't know this when they booked.
- Jenny (9/5): -
- Loren (10/5): -
- Michelle (10/5): -
- Nathan (10/5): -
- Avril (10/5): First time stay in 1770 - The views were spectacular, quiet area most of the time, staff were extremely pleasant, loved how the accommodation was on the hill hence there were no other guests going past the front door so privacy was what we wanted and it was most certainly delivered. Not much, we had everything we needed.
