Lyall Bay - Cosy Cottage

4.95 out of 5 average rating, 314 reviews1 week ago

we have stayed here a few times, so we feel right at home in this lovely comfortable home. It has everything you need, good quality linen, towels etc. We enjoy having a coffee machine available too. It's on the bus route so is easy to get into town without having to use your car and look for parking. There are excellent cafes in walking distance and of course the beach is just down the road. We will always stay here if it's available.

Oriental Bay Historic 2 bed Cottage

5 out of 5 average rating, 23 reviews2 months ago

We had a wonderful time staying in Oriental Bay, the location is ideal for walking into the city and being just off the main road meant that it was quiet and peaceful. The property was spotless and beautifully decorated. Beds were very comfortable and plenty of fresh linen. The outdoor patio was an added bonus and we spent many afternoons enjoying the summer sun out there. Our host was great, very responsive and helpful, can’t wait to return!

An amazing place to stay, incredible views looking out over the bay, waking up with the sun coming through the window and going to bed with a full moon reflecting off the water. Loved the hot outside shower. 2 minute walk for our morning swim in the sea. Helpful friendly host. Loved walking through the bush to get to our luxury hut. Thank you for having us Annie we had loved it.
