Great location

This property had everything we needed for our stay. It was well appointed and had a peaceful outlook over a park. Having two living areas gave everyone a place to relax. The verandah was a great place for afternoon drinks. It was just a short walk to several beautiful beaches, cafes and restaurants.

We had a very pleasant stay at Wreck Beach House although only occupying the top floor as there was only the two of us. The house is very comfortable and well located.

relaxing, quiet, easy

We enjoyed our stay at Shoal Bay very much. The area is just beautiful. Our host Michelle and Sam were very helpful in the lead up to the trip and checking in and getting keys was easy. The house is a great little beach house and well appointed with separate accommodation upstairs and downstairs. Would recommend the place.

Fantastic weekend getaway

Excellent place to stay, with everything you could need. Felt so fresh and new. Sitting on the balcony looking at the birds in the park was v relaxing. Outdoor staircase between the 2 levels might not be for everyone but we were fine with it.

We had a wonderful weekend away staying at Michelle’s house at wreck beach. A lovely short walk to both wreck beach and shoal bay beach / shops. The house is in a lovely spot next to a park which makes for a nice outlook from the living room and verandah. Great communication from Michelle. Would recommend this house for families or a group of friends.

Lovely house in Shoal Bay!

Michelle was a great host, very easy to communicate throughout as we had a few requests for the kids! This is a great house, really nicely decorated and it looks better than the photos as the exterior has been renovated. The kitchen is very well equipped and the house was perfect for our two little families. We will return again soon!
