Rockpool 1 - Modern Luxury Apartment
A wonderful stay in beautiful Sawtell. Mic was an exceptional host and his apartment is very well looked after- clean, beautifully furnished, centre of town and easy to access off the Main Street. Thankyou Mic.

Pacific Ridge - Ocean and River views, walk to all
Great 3 bedroom unit with full kitchen, 2 bathrooms, laundry, large living area with lounges, dining table & big screen TV. Also has a balcony with BBQ, outdoor table & views of Nambucca River from the balcony, living room & 2 of the bedrooms. Very clean. Modern kitchen with microwave, stove, oven & full sized fridge. Has a private garage with stairs to front door. Accommodation is walking distance to the RSL club, V wall, shops & restaurants. Really enjoyed the stay. Very relaxing listening to the ocean. We would stay here again.

Beautiful little apartment with a beautiful view. Close to the beach and a walk down the hill to the cafes. The apartment was as described and had everything we needed for a mini getaway. Scott’s Head is a beautiful and sleepy little inlet which is perfect for a relaxing getaway.

The Beach House # 15 Paradise Waters
Enjoyed our stay here. The home was clean and tidy with all the things you need for a comfortable stay. Location was great, close to the beach and a great walking pathway for kids to ride their scooters opposite the townhouse. The bowling club was a great place to eat which was walking distance. The pool was nice and warm and perfect for cooling off. I would recommend staying here. Nikki was responsive and gave clear instructions.

A gorgeous home, in the perfect location. Wish we had of booked for longer! Louise was lovely to communicate with. We will definitely be back :)

Bondy's Surf Shack
Lorraine’s place is in a fantastic location, overlooking Arrawarra surf break. We had a lovely stay and wish we had stayed longer! A great spot if you’re looking for some time away or tripping up the coast as we were. Lorraine was able to greet us and answer any questions, thanks for being so helpful! We would highly recommend this stay.

Coffs Harbour Beach House
The place was perfect for our requirements. Although there is only 1 aircon, if left on the downstairs room was nice and cool. We loved the space and everything was spot on.

Petlyn by the Sea - 2min stroll to beach & village
We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend at Petlyn in Sawtell. The apartment is in a great location and the courtyard was great. Thank you

No 5 Rockpool Main Street Sawtell
The apartment and its location are outstanding. We highly recommend this property. We had a problem checking in. The key was not in lockbox and instructions were missing a code. Norah arrived within 15 minutes of receiving our message and let us in. The kitchen was easy to cook in and had everything we needed. Sawtell is a lovely spot with a great selection of dining options.

Hilltop Sanctuary, Stunning Full Mountain Views!
Coming from Sydney and visiting friends on the way our arrival got later and later. Nicole’s directions were a godsend late at night. We slept so well on the large very comfy bed and we woke to a stunning view and felt right at home. It’s magical, welcoming and cosy with all of the amenities that we needed. The area is lovely. 10 minutes to beautiful Bellingen, great choice of shops and eateries, old world yet modern. We wish we’d had more time there and would come back in a heartbeat. Our stay was sadly too short but delightful. Peter, Jane and 🐕Harper

Cosy Nook at Emerald Beach
Debb and Jeff’s Airbnb is hands down the best we’ve stayed at in years of traveling! The place is spotless, incredibly well-equipped, and filled with thoughtful touches. They even provided food essentials like rice, homemade peanut butter, crackers, and a delicious homemade hummus with bread. The bed is unbelievably comfortable, and everything feels carefully designed for a perfect stay. But what truly sets this place apart is the kindness of the hosts. When bad weather hit, they generously offered us an extra night free of charge, not wanting us to take the road in our van under unsafe conditions. If you’re considering staying here, don’t hesitate—it’s an exceptional experience! Thank you so much, we are so grateful!

The Jetty Terrace,
Bob met us on arrival and provided a second set of keys. He was so friendly and welcoming. The appartment was spotless, modern, comfortable amd minutes walk from cafes, supermarket and beach. I highly recommend staying at Bob and Lyn's.

Beach Side Unit Sandcastles Appartments
Allison was very responsive and helpful. the property was exactly as shown and amenities as listed. Location is great. Easy parking. Pool and spa was great for an evening swim (before 8pm). The only negative was that the internet kept dropping out. I would HIGHLY recommend staying here and i will likely rebook in future.

Seaheaven @ Aanuka Beach Spa Bure w/Pool
Peaceful spot to stay and the surroundings are beautiful. The accommodation was lovely and very comfortable. The spa bath was very relaxing and a highlight of our stay. Caterina has thoughtfully equipped the unit with special touches and generously supplied lots of tea, coffee and snacks (popcorn, lollies, chips, crackers, soft drinks... ) Also, the unit is supplied with plenty of amenities that were required for our stay. Hope to be back soon and thank you Caterina.

Penthouse at Beachfront Resort
Thank you Ned and Simone for your lovely hospitality. You have a beautiful place that fit us all perfectly and the view is absolutely stunning. Whilst we only visited for a long weekend, the unit and location had all you need for a longer term stay. The onsite pool and beach access was great, plus we enjoyed that Sapphire Beach was only a short drive away. Such a gem of a spot was only made better by the thoughtful hosts. You were responsive and friendly, gave great instructions, and seem like lovely people. Thanks for having us in your home.

Villa 178 at Nautilus
We had a great time staying at Brett & Jess’s place. Beautiful spot on the beach with a nice shared pool and hot tub to use as well. It was very relaxing and perfect for the two of us. Also decently close to Coffs Harbour for sightseeing.
