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

Palm Villa- Pet Friendly
Brilliant place to stay. Everything was clean and suitable for our small family. Including our little doggo. Will be back again

The Katuk Suite - Scotts Head
The beach is across the road, it's a slice of Byron Bay but without the crowd, such a magical place and plenty to do if you're active and love walking, hiking or just chilling out

Panorama - Absolute Beachfront - Scotts Head
Place was great, had everything we needed for a family holiday. Very special sitting on that deck watching the waves roll in. Quick access down to the beach for a surf or a fish. Thanks again.

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.

Bay 2 Bay, a Beach paradise
The house was perfect for our family. It was spacious, child friendly and had all the necessary items to feel like home! Karen was so responsive on text, flexible for check in and was a delight to deal with. The house was great and it was very close to Goal Beach. We had a fabulous stay and would definitely come back! Thank you 😊

7th Heaven
Loved our stay! Perfect location, beautiful outdoor space and cabin. So peaceful and relaxing. Will definitely be back!

Secluded garden cottage on a dog friendly beach
The home was lovely. Really spacious for what we needed. The location couldn't have been better for us as we brought our dog and there's a dog friendly beach about 2 minutes away. The bedrooms are well spread out and the kitchen is functional. But the best part was communication from the host which was both prompt and helpful.

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.

Beach time studio @ Sapphire Beach. Nautilus
Located in a beautiful, peaceful area a short drive from Coffs Harbour CBD. Host Petrina was very helpful and provided all the amenities, even a bottle of milk in the fridge. We loved the resort pools, tennis courts and beach view. We would definitely stay here again.

Slice of Sapphire Oceanstay
Beautiful house, great spot! Kids loved it as did we.

“CASTAWAY” Stylish retreat. Scandinavian cabin.
Excellent communication from owners . Cute and cosy and clean. Quality fittings, fixtures and manchester. No cooking facilities but microwave oven and plenty of cutlery and assorted drinkware. Plenty of powerpoints and some with USB outlets. No Netflix but wifi available. A shame building site up the road has put up wire fencing around backyard, but still a nice outlook and lovely birds around including a beautiful black cockatoo. Lovely table/chair setting area and huge swimming pool in lovely garden setting. Handy to all shops via a short drive and the gorgeous beaches . Old Trial Bay Gaol just up the road. Dallas and Jackie happy to help in any way without being intrusive. Definitely a quiet peaceful stay for a couple or single person and i would certainly return.

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.

Views and Sounds of the Sea - 2 bedroom & 2 bath
Everything was as described. Easy to deal with host. Clean and functional rooms. Beautiful view.

The Beach Hut @ Aanuka Resort
Gorgeous resort- loved having a stunning beach, pool and restaurant on your doorstep!

Ocean Tropics Lush Villa in Aanuka Resort
This accomodation was wonderful! It was super spacious and offers everything you need, if you wanted to cook at the place. The resort itself is very peaceful and doesn’t feel like you are around lots of people. They have plenty of ammenities to keep children and adults entertained. You are right near the big banana, cinemas and park beach plaza for entertainment. I totally recommend staying here and I will definitely be back!
Private beachfront home rentals

Diggers Beach Hideaway - prime beachside location!
We have a wonderful stay in Diggers beach. The house is more impressive than the photos. It was spotlessly clean and well equiped . Jane and John were perfect hosts and were so responsive. Thank you and hope to return again.

Sawtell Beach Hideaway
What a wonderful home away from home. And couldn't ask for a better location! Walked everywhere, kids played with the provided boogie boards, and watched the sunrise over Sawty Beach every morning from the private trail out the back gate. Really appreciated the outdoor shower (with hot and cold water!) and the air con on those sticky humid days (although they don't stay on overnight since they're programmed to turn off after 3hrs). No beach towels are provided, so make sure you pack some or be prepared to buy some. Great stay and will definitely come back for another beach holiday 😎

Seaside Sanctuary
Michelle's Seaside Sanctuary was beautiful and homely, perfect for a family of 4 adults. She provided lots of extras such as beach towels, sun cream, biscuits, breakfast cereal and lovely shower gels/shampoo/conditioner. I just loved sitting in the egg chair on the large balcony listening to the birds in the breeze.. it is 5 min walk to jetty where there are several restaurants and beach is a similar distance. we would highly recommend this Airbnb and would return again in a heart beat

Biddy's Beach House
We really enjoyed our stay at Lachlan’s. The place was spacious and clean. All the shops and cafes/restaurants are a short walk. We were able to check in early which was very appreciated after a 6 hour drive. Would stay here again when visiting Sawtell.

Wattle St Beach House- steps from the beach!
My family and I had an amazing stay at Wattle Street Beach House! Fiona was incredibly welcoming and responsive, making everything super easy from check-in to check-out. The property was spotless and fully stocked with everything we needed - from kitchen supplies to beach gear. The location couldn’t have been better - just a short walk to the beach and all the shops and restaurant’s. I highly recommend and look forward to staying here again!

Main Beach
Enjoyed our stay at a lovely property close to everything Woolgoolga has to offer.

Blue Salt Two
Nice and clean townhouse. Short walk to the beach and cafe. The host is friendly and had good communication.

Arrawarra Point Guest Suite
After more than 100 AirBnB stays in 14 years, this might be my favorite. It is right across the street from one of Australia's best longboard point breaks. The great deck has ocean and sunset views. But what made this one outstanding were the amenities. It's the little thoughtful touches that make an AirBnB feel like home. Like a legit espresso machine with espresso cups AND a knock box so you can empty the grounds from the filter holder, nobody has that in an Airbnb. And beach towels with plenty of racks to hang them to dry. The surfboard storage had artificial grass, so you don't ding your boards. There were books and board games. There was also plenty of room for everyone to sit on the deck and relax or eat, with comfy cushions for the furniture. The hosts even offered to let us arrive early and leave a bit later without us having to ask, which made our trip less stressful. The ratings are real. This place is a delight, and we will be back - for longer next time.
