Staying at this place was like a friend leaving you the keys to their house. Had everything we needed, clean, tidy, 2 living areas, great outside area. Plus the pool was fabulous and location perfect, a short walk to beach and Salty Dog Cafe for the daily coffee fix.

Thank you for your lovely feedback Narelle.
Coastal Family Retreat is a fabulous little gem, and the pool is an added bonus when the kids aren't ready to leave the beach.
Its location is perfect, as its still in walking distant to the local shops and the beach.
We look forward to welcoming you back next time!!
