Most beautiful get away in Wave-breaker !

Stayed at the Wavebreaker with my partner for a romantic get away and was looked after so well by Debra the lovely host. Woke up to brownies on Valentine’s Day (even catered to diary requirements) and then again following days with other treats. Very clean and airy little place with classic Scott’s head beach views to wake up to each morning :) Loved coming back to our little place after our adventures. The place had absolutely everything you need Can’t wait to come back here in the future and know I’ll be looked after perfectly !! Can’t recommend enough. Pleasant, peaceful and relaxing

Home away from home

Our third stay at Wavebreaker, this time for five nights in mid August. Love the tranquility, the views over the ocean, the whale spotting, walks along the beach, the village atmosphere where you can stroll down to get a good coffee, shop for dinner or relax over a casual lunch in the cafe. But most of all we enjoy Debra's caring hospitality, her comfortable and well appointed accommodation and knowledge of the area. Thanks again for an enjoyable stay.

Views For The Memory

We had a wonderful stay over looking a beautiful beach while having the ability to watch whales all day until dark. It is a beautifully presnted property and very suitable for couples. We even had fresh warm bread delivered that was delicious. We had the best time in Scotts Head and Karen and I will be back staying at the Wavebreaker again. Thanks Debra for everything Cheers Karen and David
