Cosy Haven

Location was great for our dogs, they had a ball in the forest. No lack of facilities, very cosy in the main house with the fire. Beautiful quiet part of the world for a weekend away. Would recommend.

No pets, did not light the fire, it was very convenient and comfortable for our needs spending time with family down the road. All communication was excellent with Barbara throughout the process. I would be happy to stay at Seasound in the future. Many thanks.

Nice spot close to the beach

Our family came for a short getaway over winter. It's cold in foxton and the winter sun moves behind the trees mid afternoon but the fire heats the place up and you can walk over the dunes to the beach for the evening sun. The place was spotless, it's a good spot for kids and dogs and Barb is amazingly responsive to any questions.

Mostlt awesome, has everything you need minus wifi. Taking your own linen or washing what you use is a bit of a hassle for me personally but otherwise everything else is awesome and highly recommend.

Superb place for family getaway

We had a wonderful stay at ‘Sea Sounds’. This place has been meticulously upgraded to be super comfortable and spacious. A fully equipped kitchen and dining area with 3 comfy couches. The sleepout (third bedroom) is huge and has a toilet and shower. It’s also nice and warm too. The wood burner fire and double-glazed windows throughout ensure you stay toasty warm.A large family friendly section that is fully fenced is ideal for the kids to play and the dog to run about.A great location next to the walking path which provides beach access via the sand dunes, as well as a forest walkway which is great for bike riding too.A lovely café (Ocean Beach Eatery) is only a short walk away, as is the nearby BMX track.The owner is very friendly and super helpful too.
