Great short break
We enjoyed our last minute short break. The property had everything we needed to unwind and even turned on some beautiful Weather. The kids enjoyed the pool and the parents enjoyed the view! Close enough to the beach for a refreshing dip. Thanks for having us!

Beautiful house with amazing views, we enjoyed our 5 night stay very much, the pool was lovely. My grandkids loved all the toys and trampoline. Our only complaint would be the back sliding door sticks and is hard to open and close.

Lovely spot.
Our family really enjoyed our stay including Duncan our chihuahua. The place has a really relaxing vibe and the pool was great. In the evenings we were visited by the local kookaburras and if you go out the back to the nature reserve you can feed bush turkeys and wallabies.

Beautiful property!!
My husband and I drove up from Melbourne with our 4 year old and 6 month old to this beautiful property and we were not disappointed. The property is beautiful- particularly the outside area. The Kookaburras visiting each day on the deck was a highlight but be warned they'll pinch your food the cheeky things!! The house was a great size and well equipped especially for kids. Communication with Tom was great, he was available when we needed him and prompt with replying. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Great getaway
Great property with plenty of room. Arrived to hear chill-out music playing inside which was very welcoming. Cooking utensils could be replaced as some of them pretty old looking and falling apart. But it was a pleasant experience cooking in the kitchen with that beautiful view. My son who is 9 loved the tech games, and our dog loved the walks around the neighbourhood.

Paradise Getaway
Beautiful home sitting on top of the hill with an amazing view. Backyard is paradise from the pool, decking overlooking the spectacular view of umina to the native bush lands. The home had every we needed for our stay. Our 5 kids enjoyed themselves and had lots to do, from board games to books and even a playstation. The pool was a hit with hubby and kids, rain or shine they went in. Our hosts Alice and Tom were friendly and helpful and a pleasure to deal with. We definitely would stay in their holiday home again.

Well equipped Property with awesome views
Property is perched high on top of a hill which gives awesome views of Umina/Ettalong area. Everything, including supermarkets, cafes and the beach, was a close drive from the property. The property was well equipped with full kitchen, dishwasher, clothes washer, toys for the kids, Netflix and PlayStation. Will definitely stay here again next time we visit the area.

Amazing sunrise
Had a great time relaxing with family. Catching the sunrise in the morning from the decking is a treat in its self. My 2 year old was sad that she couldn’t go swimming. In her words, daddy it’s too cold. Will definitely book again, when it’s warmer, so she can get to have a swim.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautifully decorated home. Both the pool area and upstairs deck are incredibly relaxing and picturesque, even the wildlife agree with kookaburras visiting daily. Most importantly for us we were able to bring our furry family member along.

A convenient getaway
A great place to re-energise the whole family. Convenient - not only is it about 1.5 hours away from the hustle and bustle of Sydney, but also conveniently located to shops. The salt water pool, the cackle of kookaburras and the surrounding trees makes you feel close to nature. A very well kept property.
