Stay was great, amazing location and cosy place. Only issue was that the beds were quite sandy so we needed to dust them off before sleeping in them

Fantastic family holiday house 2 min walk from the beach
The bunk house is just that, with 16 sets of bunks, large open kitchen and lounge area... perfect for large families and UNO competitions. With the sound of the ocean putting you to sleep and waking up to the bird life on the deck and a koala in the tree...life doesnt get much better.
