Fi is such a warm, friendly, and accommodating host. She made everything so easy from the get go and my Borzoi Lucy (large Russian Wolfhound) was very comfortable with the great backyard and the “Pad” was beautifully presented and good value for money to boot. I would not hesitate recommending this place for great dog friendly accomodation. Cheers
We had a wonderful stay at Fi's Beach Pad.Great dog beach over the road and big back yard for our Molly to enjoy
Fiona is very welcoming with all the info you require
We shall be back Kaye Roy and Molly
Great location right opposite the beach. Nice and quiet, with dog towels, ball and dog bowls supplied which was a nice touch. Also had some milk in the fridge and tea and coffee, very nice after a long drive.
Great location, close to the beaches and walking distance to a few restaurants. A very warm welcome and local tips from Fiona. Accommodation was comfortable and clean and direct access to a good secure backyard if travelling with dogs
This lovely unit was thoughtfully appointed, well cared for and in a beautiful location. To top it off Fi was very welcoming to us and our pets. Check-in and communication was excellent. Highly recommend!

Thank you so much for staying I do love what I do. See you again I hope Fi
Excellent location, easy access to dog off leash beach 🏖️
Fiona is an excellent host sharing local knowledge of activities, cafes etc.
There are so many reasons to holiday in Port Macquarie.
Would happily book Fiona's place again.
We had a great time and took advantage of the easy beach access and fantastic amenities. However, there were dirty dishes left in the dishwasher and a dead cockroach on the floor.

Apologies for the dishes I must have missed that and I'm glad the cockroach bates work Living near the beach they love us inspite of my cleanliness obsession I'm extremely fussy as you saw. Hope to see you again Fi
Great access to the beaches across the road. The Pad is very quiet and very well set up, given that it's a studio. Excellent setup for our dog with own dog door to the enclosed backyard.
My wife and I visited for a weekend stay in March 2024. The accommodation is beautiful - comfortable, quiet, private and tastefully decorated with all conveniences to make it feel like a home.
The owners communication with us from start to finish was excellent and made for a wonderful stay.
A fantastic place and highly recommended.
We'd return again for sure.
This property was amazing. Loved the doggy door to the backyard. Secure backyard, very comfortable studio with everything I needed. Fi is lovely - friendly and helpful. The location a short walk from the leash free beach was excellent.
We just loved it here and will be back. And our Labrador had a secure back yard to stretch her legs in. Opposite the beach made the location perfect for a walk through the bush to the best dog beach we’ve seen. And a lovely spot for us humans to swim in too.
As described and perfectly put together. Pity we couldn't stay longer.

Really enjoyed our stay at Fi’s place. Fi gave us a great run down of the area. Very clean apartment with comfy bed with lovely linen and towels. Across the road is access to off leash dog beach so that was great. Frankie 🐶loved the big fenced back yard and Bella 🐶when she visited. Will definitely visit again.
