Comfortable & convenient
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sandpiper Cottage, it is so comfortable and has everything we needed for our 3 week stay. It's just a short walk into the main town/waterfront and to walking tracks. The area experienced a power blackout and we were grateful to receive Sera's notification and text explaining where to find torches and candles etc. Planning to be back next year!

Wonderfull again!
We brought a ute load of split hardwood with us, along with a very happy dog. That fire box is magnificent, the walks so good, and our visit was just the best. Friday night fish and chips could not have been better! We are hoping to visit again after the next school holidays. Thank you, Sera, it’s always good.

About the host

Hosted by Sera Blair

Host profile image
Sandpiper Cottage is my new coastal escape where I can enjoy some time by myself or with family and friends. When I am there I feel calmer and enjoy working on the house and in the garden.

Why they chose this property

Port Albert is a wonderful community and a great place to kayak in Nooramunga Marine National Park. Morning walks along the coast path into town for a coffee are delightful all year round.
