I wanted to visit Ocean Shores NSW. I rented a car to get there from Gold Coast Airport. This was a great place to stay. Ocean Shores is quite hilly and lacks sidewalks but I was able to walk from the house to the beach, the shopping area and the Golf Club without difficulty. But, I would recommend using a car for any non-fit, infrequent walkers. The apartment was private and my stay was very comfortable.

About the host

Hosted by Bruce

Host profile image
Hi, I’m Bruce! I’ve been living in the stunning Northern Rivers area for over 30 years and feel incredibly lucky to call this beautiful region home. I originally moved here in the 80s, drawn by the area’s natural beauty and relaxed coastal lifestyle. As a local hairdresser, I’ve enjoyed connecting with the vibrant community over the years and have built many lasting friendships.

In my free time, I love playing golf at the Ocean Shores Country Club, watching and playing cricket, and spending quality time with my family. Hosting guests allows me to share my passion for this amazing area and provide others with a welcoming and relaxing retreat. I look forward to helping you make the most of your stay and sharing some of my favorite local spots!

Why they chose this property

When I first saw this property, it was the majestic Poinciana tree on the hill that truly captured my heart. As a hairdresser who’s been part of countless wedding photo shoots, I immediately saw the potential for this tree to be more than just a beautiful feature—it could be a stunning location for wedding photos, family moments, or peaceful reflection. Its vibrant canopy, paired with the manicured lawns and ocean backdrop, makes it feel like a private oasis. Beyond the tree, the property’s proximity to untouched natural rainforest and the Divine Hill Lookout sealed the deal for me. Ocean Shores, with its pristine beaches and closeness to Byron Bay and Mullumbimby, offers the perfect balance of natural beauty and convenience. For me, this property wasn’t just a home—it was a dream come to life.

What makes this property unique

What makes my property unique is its tranquil rainforest views, private covered balcony, and exclusive access to a serene park with a stunning Poinciana tree. Minutes from beaches, walking trails, and the Ocean Shores Country Club, it’s a peaceful retreat with unbeatable natural beauty and convenience.
