About this property

Baylys Reef - Beachside Retreat

It's not often that apartment style accommodation with views across Fox's Beach become available in Robe. This new addition to the Happyshack portfolio is a sure winner for couples and small families. Thanks to the extensive renovation of the original home the owners of this substantial beachside address are now offering a separate apartment style accommodation right on the beachfront in Robe.

Light, bright and immaculately presented this property takes in the ocean view from it's private balcony and living area through a massive, double insulated view window. Modern inclusions such as Wi-Fi and smart electronics make this an excellent spot to relax even if the weather is not perfect. Sleeping four guests in two bedrooms Baylys Reef is a secluded oasis in Robe with it's separate entrance and the beach a mere stones throw away. Sit back, relax and watch the sun sprinkle it's glitter across the expanse of Guichen Bay.

So comfy

We had a really lovely stay here. We were close to the beach for the sunny days and warm with a stunning sea view for the colder days. This home was very comfortable and just what we were after.

Shelter from the storm

A beautiful property with a warm welcome. It was cold and stormy when we arrived and it was a lovely touch that the heating was on. Modern amenities but with traditional furnishings that give the property a comfortable, homely feel. A couple of minutes drive to town, the position is perfect along with wonderful views across the coast. Would absolutely stay again.

The only thing that could have made this weekend even more perfect would have been a couple of deck chairs to use on the beautiful balcony . Robe really put on a show with the brilliant weather and we just loved the accomodation and the location. We can’t wait to come back 😍

Lovely Robe weekend stay.

Thanks to the owner's Peter and Penny for a lovely 3 night stay in their beautiful ground floor apartment on the esplanade in Robe. Sea views from the balcony and a short 2 minute walk to Long beach. Everything you need and more. Clean and spacious with 2 bedrooms. Coastal walk into town and farmers market was a bonus. We will definitely return for a longer stay. Thanks Tania and Ian

Ocean views

Fully self contained apartment in a lovely quiet location. Very easy to get to the beach and walking trail along the cliff to town. Apartment is below the main house, but this is not really a problem.

Great spot

Great location, friendly property manager, house was nice but we wish it were clearer that the house is a separate portioned off part of a larger house (not separate units as listed). If you don’t have an issue with that…great spot!

Perfect seaside holiday

We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely and new apartment. It has all the mod cons (including internet access) and in addition a wonderful ocean view. What more could you need? The only thing we regret is not having had time to stay a little longer.

Fabulous Beachfront Property

This amazing beachfront property is fabulous. Although part of the main house the apartment felt secluded. Just 2 km walk along the main beach trail to Robe town which is stunning. The apartment itself is relatively new and has been constructed with considerable care and quality. We could not have asked for a better stay. Thanks so much.

peace by the ocean

Very good location, very quiet, easy access to walking trail along the ocean cliffs. Apartment style but very roomy and modern, everything you need. has been though of. All conveniences eg wifi and streaming access. Clean and very comfortable. Plantation shutter in bedroom not quite as dark as we hoped (not early risers). Would definitely recommend if you don't mind a five minute drive into town.
