Family-friendly vacation rentals in Bateau Bay

The views from the house are absolutely stunning! Always something to look at. The spaciousness of the house was superb given there were 7 of us staying. We never felt on top of one another. The kitchen was so well equipped - everything has been well thought out so that it’s a real home from home! We will definitely stay again!

Loved staying in Kathy and Dave’s home. Was using it while working nights in the area. Comfy bed, clean apartment and all amenities one needs. Would happily stay again

Had a friends trip to Craig and Tiff’s beach house and it was perfect for us. Great location for a short walk to the lake or the beach, plenty of space for us to hang out together or do our own thing, and the best supplied kitchen in any Air BNB I’ve stayed before (think small appliances and some ingredients like spices/sauces). Highlight for us is the hot tub - well worth the small additional fee for upkeep.

Jamie’s place was incredible. Walking distance to Avalon beach, and in a quiet / private neighbourhood. The house itself had all of the listed amenities, and plenty of room to spread out. We were very happy with the kitchen amenities, it made it very easy to prep meals!

We loved our stay at Le Chateau! The house is very well kept and big enough for large groups with multiple seating areas. The kitchen is great for those who love cooking with 2 fridges. Very clear instructions and manuals for using AC / stove / spa etc. Would definitely recommend a stay here and would love to return

Elly was very responsive and helpful with all communication leading up to our stay. All instruction provided for access was on point and very helpful. All local recommendations were very well received as well. The building manager Colin was very helpful and responsive as well when assistance was needed. Overall very positive experience.

A lovely house in a gorgeous part of the world - walking distance to beautiful Avalon Beach, with so many other wonderful places to visit nearby. Emma is very communicative, gave us so many great tips re restaurants and other things to do in the area. We had a fantastic time and would highly recommend.

After spending the day on the Sydney oyster farm tour. We decided to find a place that was local and relax for the night. We found Tracy’s place and reserved it, drove to it, and to our delight it was spectacular!! , Right on the water, beautiful, cozy setting. She met us outside, and walked us through everything in the house. She was delightful, and full of knowledge of the area. We chatted for awhile, and she recommended a local pup Elenora hotel for supper. It was great. The food and drinks were perfect. Well worth the walk. It was a short 5 -10 min trip. We wish we could have stayed longer, and enjoyed the other amenities, but on to our road trip…

A beautiful oasis setting, in the trees. Wonderful western aspect offering evening opportunities to sit on the balcony and watch the sudnown. Easy 2 minute drive to Avoca beach. Really well set up kitchen with double cooktop and oven. Great communication from Janine and Henk.

Stayed here for 3 nights ahead of and during my wedding. Christine was a wonderful host, responsive beforehand. The nest is so beautiful, air con great, and the whole property was exactly what we needed. Lots of space. Would highly recommend.

The cabin was lovely and had everything we needed. It was close to the pub, beach by just sort walk and the lake was at the back. It was pet friendly and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Kate's place was exactly like the photos and a great location for what we wanted to do whilst in that region, not to mention the awesome view from the balcony! The only constructive (not negative) feedback was that we took our 4 month old German Shepherd puppy with us and didn't have any actual yard for the dog to roam around, or to do it's business, so were out and about walking the streets at all hours of the night to accommodate our dog requirements. Overall we loved Kate and her home but in regards to being pet friendly, perhaps not an active puppy dog. :-). We will certainly stay at Kates place again, just not with the dog. Thanks Kate!!

We absolutely loved our stay at the Shack. Views were stunning, property was very peaceful and private. Ryan and Louisa were very accommodating and helpful with me bringing my boat. Caught plenty of fish from the wharf and even got a few legal ones. We would definitely look to book here again.

Sue’s home was wonderful! Plenty of room, beds, and space to be comfortable living for our short stay. Walking distance to 2 great beaches and multiple food/drink spots! We enjoyed multiple lunches at Caves which were delicious and convenient. Caves beach is extremely neat and beautiful during low tide and a must see during your stay here.

Amazing oasis 2 minutes walk from beautiful Avalon beach. A great two nights away.

Awesome accomodation in an awesome place! Vivienne was very helpful & easy to communicate with. Highly recommend :)

Amazing stay in Terrigal! Beautiful space, great ocean view, and close walking distance to everything. Tim was very responsive and ensured our check-in was a breeze. We couldn’t be more pleased and highly recommend this lovely home!

We had an amazing stay at Lisa’s place. The photos don’t do it justice!! The pool was a beautiful temperature and the beach cabana was so relaxing. Lisa was a great host, provided flexible check in and was very responsive and friendly. Would definitely recommend to family and friends. Can’t wait to come back here again!

My large group had a pleasant stay. Large front/backyard and plenty of beds and seating for dining for our group. Only downfall was there’s no air con in some bedrooms but they do provide some fans. Recommend the house and great location to many attractions like the long jetty & the entrance!

Could not fault anything about the stay, the place was beautiful, clean, and very peaceful. The bed was comfortable which is a must. Would highly recommend. The communication and ease of check in was also great.

Epic family house. Lots to do and plenty of space. Great having all the bathrooms and the outdoor space is so cool. Shops close by made it easy to really never get in the car. Beach walking distance too!! We had sing alongs around the fire pit and fun in the pool. Great space everywhere. Super private too! Loved it so much.

Wonderful location, pleanty of room to allow escape and peace. Suggestions: More kitchen towels, larger and more beach/pool towels We understood the absolute quiet time from 10 pm to 6 am. However, I was constantly worried about sound off those hours. I wonder if there is some way you could provide direction about the sound limit. Dogs next door were barking during night, sometimes all night and kept us awake. We had a wonderful time and you are great owners. We would love to return!! Thank you!

What a lovely find in a magic spot! House was perfectly located within such close walking distance to the Boathouse, beach and creek. The pool was great for a refreshing dip and the covered deck made relaxing enjoyable both in sunny and rainy weather. We also loved being able to bring our dog!

Victoria‘s place was perfect for a girls weekend out of town. Lovely balcony with a view of the water. A bedroom each. A well appointed kitchen and very comfortable lounge room. Very close to all the restaurants and cafes at Ettalong and Umina.
