Had a great deck to sit on after a day at the beach. Only a short walk to the bowlo, beach, SLSC and Main Street. Only thing I would suggest is packing an extra bath mat. We had four adults stay and it got quite wet after showers. Would definitely stay here again. ##### Tallulah Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tracy M. 23 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Love it...

Comfortable and convenient for the, dog-friendly, Hallidays Sports Club (aka The Bowlo.) Easy to walk to the beach, Waves or the Hallidays Point Shops too. May not be as quiet in summer, however. ##### Anthony L.

Reviewer Comments: 2nd time we have stayed and enjoy it each time. Especially like the morning sun (in Winter) on the rear deck looking out towards the beach - perfect place to chill.Only minor annoyance this time was the gas ran out on our first night and it was very cold! It was resolved the next day but did leave us pretty chilly overnight and in the morning. The gas heater (when working) actually warms the house up pretty quickly. ##### Bev L.

Reviewer Comments: Glad we came here. Nice and quiet in May. Friendly small town feel, but with good amenities, and good sized FoodWorks supermarket with good variety of fresh food and groceries reasonably priced. Great community OpShop. Ruby’s place was comfortable and well equipped, and we enjoyed the balcony, morning sun and comfy chairs. It was larger than we needed. Would have preferred a smaller more affordable stay somewhere, but not much around for a couple. A weekly rate might be good in off season. Beaches, ocean pool and coastal walks ✅✅✅ ##### Ross S. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Neil S. 29 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy ##### Neil S.

It is a great location, easy walk to both beaches and the shops. We love sitting on the deck with glimpses of the beach listening to the birds and relaxing. ##### Jan H. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Fairmont Resort Blue Mountains MGallery Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Fairmont-Resort-Spa-Blue-Mountains.h522363.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Hunter Valley Gardens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pokolbin-Hotels-Mercure-Resort-Hunter-Valley-Gardens.h1877968.Hotel-Information) > > [Mandalay Luxury Beachfront Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Mandalay-Luxury-Beachfront-Apartments.h2648804.Hotel-Information) > > [The Lost Camel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Yulara-Hotels-The-Lost-Camel.h4805954.Hotel-Information) > > [Heron Island Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Heron-Island-Hotels-Heron-Island-Resort.h1636471.Hotel-Information) > > [RAC Ningaloo Reef Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Coral-Bay-Hotels-Ningaloo-Reef-Resort.h4257765.Hotel-Information) > > [Lilianfels Resort & Spa - Blue Mountains](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Lilianfels-Resort-Spa-Blue-Mountains.h872.Hotel-Information) > > [Torquay Foreshore Caravan Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Torquay-Hotels-Torquay-Foreshore-Caravan-Park.h6001296.Hotel-Information) > > [Club Wyndham Airlie Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Airlie-Beach-Hotels-Club-Wyndham-Airlie-Beach.h2802992.Hotel-Information) > > [Bannisters Port Stephens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Soldiers-Point-Hotels-Bannisters-Port-Stephens.h27355893.Hotel-Information) > > [The Riverside House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bury-St-Edmunds-Hotels-The-Riverside-House-Hotel.h901004.Hotel-Information) > > [Heritage Trail Lodge Margaret River](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Margaret-River-Hotels-Heritage-Trail-Lodge-Margaret-River.h9624427.Hotel-Information) > > [Rochester Riverside Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rochester-Hotels-Rochester-Riverside-Caravan-Park.h65341713.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort, Port Douglas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Sheraton-Grand-Mirage-Resort.h8065.Hotel-Information) > > [The Carrington Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-The-Carrington-Hotel.h474003.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham Resort Torquay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Torquay-Hotels-Wyndham-Resort-Torquay.h1927122.Hotel-Information) > > [Coral Sea Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Airlie-Beach-Hotels-Coral-Sea-Marina-Resort.h1047180.Hotel-Information) > > [Exmouth Escape Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Exmouth-Hotels-Exmouth-Escape-Resort.h4032424.Hotel-Information) > > [Ozone Hotel Kangaroo Island](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kingscote-Hotels-Aurora-Ozone-Hotel.h2737459.Hotel-Information) > > [The Copa Cabana at Copacabana](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Copacabana-Hotels-The-Copa-Cabana-At-Copacabana.h33554165.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Kraft](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Florence-Hotels-Hotel-Kraft.h27795.Hotel-Information) > > [Kangaroo Island Wilderness Retreat](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Karatta-Hotels-Kangaroo-Island-Wilderness-Retreat.h2041654.Hotel-Information) > > [By The Sea Port Douglas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Douglas-Hotels-By-The-Sea-Port-Douglas.h3024406.Hotel-Information) > > [Residenza D'Epoca Palazzo Galletti](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Florence-Hotels-Residenza-DEpoca-Palazzo-Galletti.h1851785.Hotel-Information) > > [Glamping at Truffle Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gretna-Hotels-Truffle-Lodge.h22239606.Hotel-Information) > > [RAC Monkey Mia Dolphin Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monkey-Mia-Hotels-RAC-Monkey-Mia-Dolphin-Resort.h2650828.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Edinburgh (EDI) to Munich (MUC)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/edi/muc/edinburgh-to-munich) > > [Flights from Paisley (GLA) to Auckland (AKL)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/gla/akl/glasgow-to-auckland) ### Activities > [Things to do in Wiesbaden](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Wiesbaden.d5255.Travel-Guide-Activities)
