Our family of 4 and precious pooch enjoyed our stay at Amber’s. Wayne and Mardi were so welcoming and attentive from the moment we arrived. They have created a haven for people and their pets alike. Beautiful decor, comfortable beds, clean and impeccably maintained. We spent a lot of our time in the outdoor living area. We enjoyed our time immensely and look forward to returning one day.

Wonderful Stay with Furbaby

Our stay at Ambers was delightful, Wayne was a lovely host and ensured we had everything we needed for our stay. The breakfast goodies were delicious, the property was perfect and safe for my fur-baby Aston to run around and enjoy the outside area, and Sawtell is a little gem on the North Coast. So glad we chose Ambers for our stay and we'll certainly be back.

Excellent stay

We had the best stay for 4 days at Wayne & Mardi's BnB. They were excellent hosts and Wayne gave us great info about the area and wonderful restaurants close by. We especially enjoyed their home made muesli, macadamia fruit bread as well as banana bread! Studio was spotless, bed and linen very comfortable and bathroom amazing. We definitely hope to return one day.
