A well located property, close enough to the centre of town for convenience, but far enough out (9 km) for quiet relaxation.The fact that you can take your dogs is a real plus and an enclosed rear garden is very convenient.I come from Denmark WA, which has stunning scenery, but enjoyed Esperance, especially the dog beaches near town.Highly recommend the Lily Pad, comfortable, well maintained, tidy, good location and friendly owners.

Lovely little building which has been tastefully decorated and all amenities thought for. The artwork of the bird on the fuel bowser outside was beautiful. Karen gave us some fresh eggs upon arrival and showed us around. Our stay was quiet and peaceful.

Karen and Jason went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable. I had unfortunately had unforeseen car issues and they were so accommodating. I am so thankful for their generosity. Lilypad is very tranquil, beautiful decking area which is fenced for dogs. The home inside feels homely and beautifully decorated. I definitely recommend the property and owners! Thank you

Perfect family getaway

We have had the best time at the Lilypad, we came with our 2 kids and 2 dogs to visit family, the accommodation is super cosy and the photos really don’t do it justice, yard out the back is fenced for pets and lovely for relaxing. It has everything we need, and while I thought we were a decent drive out of town it’s really not far at all, and very close to a nice Brewery. Jason and Karen have been so kind and helpful, we’ll definitely make this our place to stay when in Esperance.
