Our place is definitely close to the beach; only a 500m walk to Whites Beach which is rather shallow and flat. Most people are happy to drive the 5 to 10 mins to town. Glad you enjoyed your stay.

Great week away with the family. Walk to the beach, cold drinks or coffee at the cafe in the golf resort. We had a great time.

So glad that you and your family had a nice time, Tim. Yes, our holiday home is just a short walk from both the Clubhouse and Whites Beach. It's a real luxury to be able to go to the beach and grab a drink at the Clubhouse without getting in a car. Wishing you all the best for 2018 and we hope to see you again next summer.

Thank you, Denise. Yes, we are on the Sands golf course which is a little out of town but as you say, it is quiet. Glad you enjoyed your stay.
Just a sweet little spot by the beach that is just so cosy yet spacious with all the amenities you could need. Thankyou very much for being so hospitable for our family :)

Spacious and well kept property
We enjoyed our stay at the Sands. The property had everything we needed and was clean and tidy. Its a short drive to the center of Torquay meaning that its quiet and away from the hustle and bustle of the holiday crowds. We highly recommend it!

Glad you enjoyed your stay, Dennis and Jan. We try to keep our place presentable all the time.
Lovely property, although a little tired. After communicating a couple of concerns with the owner to address some cleaning issues they acknowledged that they would be replacing some furniture and engaging with their cleaner. I would stay here again.

So nice to hear you enjoyed your family holiday and felt at home. We try to make the house comfortable and homely, tidy and no fuss. If you visit Torquay again, we welcome you and your family to stay again.
This place is wonderful.... Open, bright spaces, quiet neighbourhood with views to trees and big skies, bird song and the sound of the ocean. It is close to the beautiful beaches of Torquay and we found delicious places to eat nearby. We also prepared food in the house and we found all the kitchen amenities we needed.
There is a relaxed, happy vibe in the house. The house was impeccably clean. Thankyou for a wonderful stay.

About the host
Hosted by Killian Cheah
Why they chose this property
Our holiday home is set up to suit up to two couples with two kids each. We love it because it is a quiet, comfortable and relaxing place to stay. We hope you will find it to be the same.
What makes this property unique
Our living area is downstairs, providing easy access to the garden and outdoor areas to sit in the sun and have the kids run around. We can leave our bedroom windows open for fresh air at night; which is healthier and the main reason we have not installed air-conditioning. And we also do not have to trek shopping upstairs.
Almost all of the other properties in the area have their living and dining upstairs with bedrooms downstairs.
