Turtle Beach Cottage
Amazing stay. Had kayaks in the house that we put to great use at the nearby beach. Overall, the house was clean and Louisa was very helpful!

Off grid home| Mountain views| Pool | Fireplace
A perfect place to stop, relax and unwind. The house is well designed to take in the breathtaking views from every room. Loved the day bed and spent hours on the back deck soaking up the valley view and the visits from the friendly local wildlife. The hot tub was a perfect place to kick back with a glass of wine....or two. Jenny was a great host, adding many personal touches to make this an even more wonderful and memorable stay. Highly recommend and look forward to returning!

REEF Luxury Home, Ocean View, Large Pool & Hot Spa
Wow! We booked this property for the weekend of our wedding for a nice place to stay with our young children and it was perfect. From the second we walked in, it exceeded our expectations! Stunning! Jaymie was extremely helpful and responsive to any questions we had, right from booking to leaving which made the stay even more inviting. We would love to make this a yearly stay, we couldn’t be happier!

Isla Villa Beach House - Shoal Bay
Fantastic property with thoughtful hosts; a wonderful choice for families and kids of all ages. Well maintained amenities and attention to detail made our stay with extended family a delight. The heated pool was a hit - even when it rained - and it was easy to get in and out safely for both the toddler and senior in our group. The wood fire pizza oven is definitely worth cranking for dinner or just to hang in the mini-amphitheatre. The playhouse, car and trampoline kept our little one very entertained. Every room was immaculate and beautifully designed. We were even treated to some local produce courtesy of our host - thanks Lauren! A magical location and very peaceful. Just 10 minutes walk to town and if you’re up for exploring, follow the ‘secret’ track to Wreck beach via the bushland at the rear of the garden. Highly recommend.

Large House near Lake with Pool
House was absolutely beautiful, plenty of space and very clean , host was amazing as well and we were extremely grateful for a late check out time ! Would definitely stay again and recommend to others ! Thank you again x

Hargraves Beach Oasis with Pool
We had an amazing time at this house! Panassa and Nathan left us a thoughtful welcome package that was very much appreciated. The house was perfect for our group of 10—spacious, comfortable, and exactly what we needed. Communication with them was super easy as well, which made the whole experience even better. We’re really happy with our stay and would highly recommend it!

Entertainers delight. Large pool. Late checkout*
My husband and I will definitely be staying again! Stayed as it was close to a friends wedding, the home was spotless walking in, and truly felt like the owners loved the property and took care of it accordingly. Yon was super helpful and friendly, and also offered us a late checkout since we had a wedding the night before check out. This is easily one of our favourite places we have stayed, could not recommend it enough!

Dream House Hunter Valley - Pool•4 Ensuites•Luxury
Thank you Melanie and Brendon. We booked into their beautiful home for the Spartan race and it was stunning. Melanie made it seamless to check in and was very accommodating for a late check out which made a big difference to be able to shower before the drive back home. 5 stars, would 100% stay again

Beach House. Book 2 nights, stay 3rd FREE!
Beautiful and spacious home that had everything we needed to enjoy our holiday. Great communication and received all the information we needed for our stay. Would highly recommend this property for families and friends wanting to enjoy a weekend by the beach!

CAVES BEACH HOUSE ocean views, walk to beach
caves beach is absolutely beautiful and the Williams house is in a perfect location. Two beaches very close by and walkable and plenty other activities to do in the surrounding. The house is perfectly set up for families with kids and the views are stunning. We actually thought the pictures do not do the views and house justice.

Four bedroom house with secure lock up garage.
It is a nice place abd kids friendly. Activities and entertainment machines keep the kids fun busy. High speed Internet makes TV and games fine. Considerable facilities makes living there easily. Kids want come back again. Highly recommend and thank you Geoff.

The Hunter House c1917 Historic Workers Cottage
Thanks Belinda! Loved staying at your place :)

Burward Cottage beautiful peaceful & location
I had a wonderful stay at this property. Sharon was very responsive and helpful throughout the booking and stay, which made everything smooth and easy. The place was also much cleaner than I expected. If you’re looking for a peaceful and relaxing stay, this is the perfect spot. One of my favourite parts was sitting in the kitchen with a cup of tea or coffee, enjoying the view through the large lookout window. It’s a lovely space to unwind and soak in the surroundings. Highly recommended!

Lakeside Residence
Beautiful stay, thank you very much to the hosts

Habitat at Newcastle Beach
We live in the area and just needed a place to crash while we had some work done at home. The house is beautiful and airy and instructions were crystal clear. We loved having a little staycation in the best suburb in Newy!

we loved staying at Clare's place, everything we needed to have an enjoyable holiday was supplied. Kids loved the wii, DVD selection and board games. beds were super comfy, lots of lovely light and our dog absolutely loved the dog beach.

Bella Farmhouse with Spa & Firepit. Pet Friendly
Heidi's Bella Farm was exceptional. The house was clean, cosy and had all the amenities you need to enjoy a relaxing experience. The location is literally near everything by a short drive. Heidi was always super helpful when requesting information. I can't recommend it highly enough. We'll definitely be back.

Hunter Valley Luxury
Carmen was nothing but friendly and upfront from the very beginning. We felt very informed and safe. Carmen’s property was exactly like the photos (although the scenery was MUCH better in real life) Lovely and clean place, including the sheets and towels. The extra bathroom (outside of the ensuite) is perfect for a place housing so many guests. We also received a beautiful welcome gift, which was very thoughtful and delicious.

Dutchies Bliss - Perfect spot with pool, sleeps 8
The place was lovely and spacious. Jordan is a great communicator and was very accomodating. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend!

Hawks Nest Forest House with a pool
Absolutely wonderful! We had a lovely peaceful stay at Jen’s house. It was brilliant. Sparkling clean, had everything we needed. The BBQ was great. It was so relaxing. Our little dog loved his stay too. Jen is a fantastic host

Casa Del Maya-HOUSE A/C, Outdoor living &Sea Views
Roxy's place is exactly as described. Her home is both welcoming and warm. The location is great, with Anna Bay better than I expected. Roxy was engaging and kept me posted along the way. Will definitely stay again when in the area.

YOLO Paradise - Tropical Luxury Beach House
Yolo was absolute paradise. Home was as photos, extremely clean, all rooms were decorated beautifully and sheets were soft. Bathrooms were stocked with everything you could need including extra toiletries and plenty of towels. Blown away by kitchen, cupboards full of appliances, plenty of pans and pantry was full of oils, tea, coffee, sauces, cooking spices, water, didnt need to bring anything but food. Backyard was amazing, pool, pool table, mini golf, basketball, outdoor checkers and firepit, no need to leave. Host left plenty of pool toys already inflated and lots of games for kids. Our host was really quick to respond and had plenty of recommendations of things to do. Very close to great surf beach. I love air bnb homes for holidays and this one is the best i've stayed in, will definitely return.

Renovated charming house close to Wine Country
Edith's place was very cozy and homey. Check in was flexible and the place was big and have a designated parking space. Have plenty of kitchenwares as well. We get to use the wine glass just nice for our take home wine from our wine tasting trip in Hunter Valley. 😁
