Beachy Keen
Nina was very helpful & friendly. Kids loved the garden & jacuzzi. Had everything we needed. Very good location to Jambaroo, blow hole & Shellharbour.

Fernleigh Cottage Apartment
Gail was a wonderful host and her place the perfect sanctuary for our little retreat in Stanwell Park. Gail provided so many thoughtful details to make our stay comfortable and memorable including the freshly baked bread in the mornings. Thanks Gail.

Kingfisher Pavilion Suite
We had an amazing stay at Bundarra Farm! Rayma went above and beyond to make our experience memorable. She even took us on a buggy ride through the paddocks, which was a fantastic way to take in the stunning scenery. The animals were a highlight of our trip! From the friendly dogs, horses, and llamas, to the cows, calves, bull, roos, and a variety of birds, it was a true animal lover's paradise. My 2-year-old had an absolute ball with all the animals! The Kingfisher Pavilion Suite had everything we could possibly need and more. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay, and I highly recommend Bundarra Farm to anyone looking for a peaceful and unique getaway. Would definitely love to return!

Circa 1890 - Original cottage in heart of Berry
Beautiful house right in the heart of Berry!! The house has everything you need and the kitchen is set up super well. The hot tub is a fun addition too and great outside area. Terri is a great host with easy and helpful instructions. Would highly recommend!

Husky Haven - just magic!
We had a wonderful weekend in Jervis at Allyson’s house. Everything was just like in the listing: very clean and tidy, and the place is just a few minutes’ walk to the center of Huskisson. The outdoor table was perfect for dinner under the stars and to relax. Also, I really appreciate that he was always checking in here to see how our trip was going, if we needed anything, and so on. Always very kind! Thank you, Allyson, for such a lovely space. My in-laws loved the house and the area. Hope we can come back one day! 😊

"White cottage" Jamberoo
A lovely stay surrounded by rolling hills and cows right in the backyard! The cottage was spotless and clean and had everything we needed for a weekend away. So quiet and private and you wouldn't guess that a 10 minute drive would take you to Kiama nearby for food and shops and beaches. Perfect little corner of the world :) Ellen was helpful and always prompt to respond, thank you for having us and looking forward to returning.

Jamberoo Valley Farm Cottage
Barbie’s Place was just as advertised Such Beautiful Surroundings very peaceful And we got to feed the animals Her place was immaculate Easy access to drop box My partner and I had A Wonderful time Definitely recommend to anyone travelling down the South Coast

Sea Deck Coledale
This is one of those places that lives up to the photos. Beautiful spot away from the noise but yet close to the classics, seacliff bridge walk, a local rsl and a friendly safe swimming beach. Tracey was flexible and very responsive to make the experience amazing! Will be back and would recommend to anyone looking for a recharge getaway or just a fun time

Ocean Breeze - Spacious home seconds from Beach
We loved our stay. It was an easy walk into town and right on the beach. The deck was spacious and inside has everything we needed. Would return for sure.

Coppin Cottage Highland Retreat
Loved the cottage, it was super homely and cosy. We had a fantastic weekend here. The backyard is especially lovely! We wished we got to enjoy it more but it rained the whole weekend we stayed. We would definitely stay here again!

A Perfect Getaway @ Ocean Breeze Apartment
A very cute small guest area to one side of the main house with separate access, everything was really clean and comfortable. Really close to the beach, it’s a nice and peaceful area.

Lark Cottage - Relaxing Retreat
A perfect stay for our family event at the Burrawang pub - easy walking distance. Lovely birdsong in the mornings, and the house had everything we needed.

Lennox & Lewis - South Coast get away
Lovely stay, clean and a beautiful home. Walking distance to the beach, we look forward to staying again soon. Luscombe Family

-Stately Bowral Designer Home
Place was delightfully situated in quiet garden suburb, a short walk from the nearby nature reserve in one direction and the Scottish Arms local hostelrie for dinner and or a drink in the other. With 5 bedrooms, a couple of living areas and a well appointed kitchen the house easily accommodates quite a few people.

Wombiombi Cottage
We had the best weekend at Wombiombi Cottage! The cottage is immaculately clean and so peaceful. We loved sitting on the verandah listening to the birds, with a glass of wine and watching our dog run around the back paddock and enjoy the space. Fran was so friendly and responsive, and welcomed us with homemade cupcakes. We also had one of Fran’s home made dinners which was delicious. The location is fantastic, secluded yet just a 10 min drive to Bowral and Berrima. We already can’t wait to go back, our new favourite place! Thank you for a great weekend Fran! Marissa, Niel and Pinot ❤️ 🐾

Woodland Studio & Farm | Exeter NSW | Pet Friendly
We had the most wonderful weekend at Woodland and Margot was an absolutely lovely! The home was so beautifully curated and put together. Margot and her husband made us feel welcome and at home with easy parking and divine breakfast treats in the kitchen ready by for us. They shared their beautiful property with us and gave very helpful tips and ideas of what to do on our stay. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us which was even bigger and more beautiful in person. We loved every moment of our stay and are so appreciative that you took us to feed the sheep and alpacas too! It was so much fun. Thank you again :)
Family-friendly home rentals with a pool

Vineyard Vista
Had an amazing and relaxing stay! Place is spotless and as described, David and Jen had excellent communication and were friendly but gave us our own space.

The Treehouse Kangaroo Valley on Kangaroo River
I had a fantastic stay! The location was perfect, surrounded by breathtaking views that made mornings unforgettable. Listening to the native birds in the morning added to the serene atmosphere. Enjoying my coffee on the deck was a highlight—so peaceful! The Foxtel was a nice touch, allowing us to unwind in the evenings. The host was welcoming and attentive, making the experience even better. I highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to relax and enjoy nature while having all the comforts of home. Can’t wait to return!

"Seacliff" - Cliff Top Beach House
What an amazing place to relax and unwind! Stunning as per the photos…

5 min stroll to the ❤️ Of Huskisson
We had a fantastic stay at Pia's place. The studio is secluded, private, quiet. It's the perfect size for two people. The pool is great, it's a few steps outside and one can have a cool morning dip. Pia is really friendly. Daisy, the dog, loves a pet. The location is excellent, it's a short walk to the centre of the town (our favourite was Bud's Tavern, with its excellent moules frites and decent beers), or a short drive to the breweries (excellent meals and beers). Don't miss the Maritime Museum. We'll definitely choose Pia's place agin when we come back to the area.

BEACH OASIS family home with pool at the Beach
We had a beautiful relaxing weekend at Carmen’s as 2 family’s with 4 young children. The location was amazing on a quiet street just steps away from the beach & a coffee shop within walking distance. Local shops & park up the road & the pool in the yard an extra bonus! The house was as pictured & packed full of everything & anything you would need in a home, the children’s books & toys were an added bonus! Would highly recommend & hopefully will be back!

Spacious Unit on Horse Property
Great place to stay, everything you need for a weekend away :) Donna was great! We were there for a wedding at Bendooley and was able to order ubers to the property which was very helpful. Will be back for a weekend to check out all the wineries ☺️ Thanks Donna

SkyView Villa - WOW Views & Comfort
This place is peacefully located over looking the golf course with loads of kangaroos, wombats and birds. The linen and towels good quality and pristine. The photos are accurate. There is an excellent restaurant at the golf course, short drive into KV village.

Beyond the Sea ( with heated pool )
We had a great stay at Mark and Sandra’s place. The house is very nice and spacious. The description, photos and amenities in the listing are accurate. The kitchen was amazing, there were plenty of pots and pans and kitchen stuff so we had no issues when we prepared our meals. Their place has a very homey ambience. Mark has been very responsive to queries and concerns. We had an issue with the screen door during check in but Mark was able to sort it out asap. We had a very nice stay at their place. We highly recommend their place. Thank you Mark and Sandra for being great hosts!
