About this property
ON THE Rocks - Yamba's Ultimate Absolute Beachdirft Residence - Holiday Yamba
Holiday Yamba proudly presents On The Rocks, an extraordinary oceanfront residence perched directly above Convent Beach. This iconic property is one of only two private homes in all of Yamba with direct access to this pristine stretch of coastline.
Recently fully refurbished inside and out, On The Rocks has been transformed into a world-class coastal retreat, offering an experience more akin to a private luxury resort than a holiday home. Every detail from finishes and furnishings to layout and lighting, has been curated to the highest standard.
Perched literally on the rocks above the Pacific Ocean, the home offers breathtaking, uninterrupted sea views, with the unique privilege of watching whales and dolphins pass right in front of the property.
Designed for indulgent living and unforgettable stays, On The Rocks features four luxury bedrooms sleeping up to eight guests, three designer bathrooms plus a dedicated outdoor beach bathroom, two expansive ocean-facing balconies, multiple oversized living and entertaining zones, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow. Absolute privacy and one of the best locations in coastal NSW make this property truly exceptional.
From sunrise breakfasts on the balcony to evening drinks as waves crash below, staying at On The Rocks delivers a rare sense of immersion, you feel as though you are inside the ocean, not just beside it.
Located just moments from Yamba’s cafés, beaches, and boutiques, yet completely secluded once inside, On The Rocks is perfect for those who expect more from their holiday escape.
Please note: there are three bathrooms inside and an additional outdoor beach bathroom at this property.

Fabulous position but needs a bit of maintenance which I believe Ray White is attending.
Ray White were very helpful managing agents and I would book with them again.

Best view ever. Feel like you a sleeping above the ocean
This is an amazing home with super comfy beds. It's huge. We felt too big for the 3 of us but an amazing experience. And overall a great home to rent a walk away from ocean pool and beaches.
What would I change:
1. Make sure garbage bins are empty. Phew! Made garage extremely stinky. Also make sure dishes are clean.
2. Check in process also requires a docusign with deposit. We've Been renting Stayz homes for 6 weeks and this was only place that required. They also required a bank wire which we paid in full as it was close to date but they sent emails every day of our stay asking for second half of payment. Booking ahead of time would solve.
3. Microwave needs repair.
4. All chairs I side are plastic with a glass table. Very uncomfortable. We ended up playing card game on floor.
5. Explain steep driveway and stairs down to mail living area in description. Some people would be intimidated or physically challenged.

Hi Lynn,
Thank you for taking the time to review On The Rocks, I agree this property has the most amazing views.
Our garbage bin system is a little complicated as it is a fortnightly rotation and during the heat of summer the bins can become quite full. Both the microwave, unclean dishes and the bins being emptied could have been rectified with a simple phone call to the office, only too happy to attend to any maintenance or issues our guests have. I Can honestly say I have never had anyone complain about having to fill out a DocuSign, this is part of the check in procedure to fill out the Guest Registration Form and you would have only received emails asking for payment as your booking was technically unpaid for a few days until your direct deposit went into our bank account.
Thank you for your feedback about the dining setting, I have not had complaints about the dining room table or chairs at the property before nor has the driveway or stairs ever been an issue for any previous guests but I will take your advice onboard.

Overall it's a lovely place to stay. There is a king size in the master with an en suite but see thru blinds make it inappropriately public to the neighbouring building... Had to hang a sheet Up to prevent people seeing toilet and shower.
Power shorted thanks to rain getting into a plug. Water leaked out of ceiling in master. Fixed quickly thanks to good agent communication.
Down the hallway is a queen and next door is the bathroom. Door slams when you use it... It needs sanding to stop it sticking and slamming when you use it.
Down stairs is the other two rooms.
One has 2.singles and is quite small but private,. And the other has a king.
The bathroom is separate.
Bins are rusted and old in bathroom which is kinda gross. And toilet seat is a cheap replacement so it doesn't stay up when a bloke piddles. Also doesn't fit the rim
The shower water does not go hot in the master... This obviously runs off a different hot water system to every other tap because the water is fine is all the rest including the kitchen so our friends had to shower in our bathroom down stairs.
Lovely big kitchen. Tired lounges. But overall quite a generous space. Good provisions like a toaster and nespresso coffee pod machine. Good knives and cutlery just no table cloth and the glass table needs it really.
Outdoors is good. And BBQ needed a clean which we gave it,. This made the gas work properly...
Coverlets on beds not cleaned so don't use these... As usual these are bit skanky and not cared f

Hi Chelsea,
Thank you for your lengthy review, firstly we do thank you for your patience when Yamba was inundated with an extreme weather front that unfortunately created water leaks throughout town.
Also thank you for reporting that the upstairs shower was warm rather than hot, thankfully the property has three more showers to use so your friends would not have been to inconvenienced. The temperature has now been regulated in this bathroom.
The two metal bins have not been in the property for a great length of time but unfortunately the salt air is not kind on metal, we would happily have replaced them during your stay as they seemed to have caused some distress.
The banging bathroom door was investigated and no issue was found, the cheap toilet seat that did not fit was expensive and came with the toilet when purchased so was a perfect fit.
The beds were inspected before your arrival and the clean linen was being put on the beds during inspection, no 'skanky' coverlets were used in the process.
The BBQ had been cleaned before arrival and the lounges that are a guest favourate for their comfort have been recently re-stuffed and cleaned
The blinds in the bathroom are privacy blinds so a sheet should not have been needed.
Hopefully you actually took the time to enjoy being in a beachfront home with private access onto one of Yamba's most photographed beaches.
