We had a brilliant week at 77 The Boulevard - the proximity to the beach and wrap around view make it the perfect place for young families needing to get quickly to and from the beach. It was so refreshing to have such a great kitchen and quality beds compared to other vacation rentals! Couldn’t fault it and already securing dates to book again ##### Catriona C. Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2022 ### 4/10 Poor #### Danny M. 12 Dec 2021 Liked: Communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy #### Top location but that’s it House was very over priced “Architect Design” is a comment used on over the top Propertys, unfortunately this house wasn’t that. Poor lighting in most rooms including upstairs bathroom which was a hazard at times (luckily we used phone lights haha) No linen, towels or toilet paper provided considering we paid $700/night you expect these items to be provided. Also had to deal with owners postage that was delivered to our property whilst our stay. (Noted “leave on property no signature required”) Overall the views were amazing and area very beach like and quite. House was a let down for the price we paid. ##### Danny M. Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 10 Mar 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### great beach view basic ,everything there accommodation. Two separate bedroom areas cross the road and straight onto the beach. Close to convenience shop. Available undercover carspaces,stairs would be a stuggle for elderly guests. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2021 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [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) > > [Exmouth Escape Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Exmouth-Hotels-Exmouth-Escape-Resort.h4032424.Hotel-Information) > > [The Queen at Chester Hotel, BW Premier Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chester-Hotels-The-Queen-At-Chester-Hotel.h21715.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in South Shields](https://www.expedia.co.uk/South-Shields-Hotels.d5691.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort, Port Douglas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Sheraton-Grand-Mirage-Resort.h8065.Hotel-Information) > > [Torquay Foreshore Caravan Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Torquay-Hotels-Torquay-Foreshore-Caravan-Park.h6001296.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) > > [Heron Island Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Heron-Island-Hotels-Heron-Island-Resort.h1636471.Hotel-Information) > > [Glamping at Truffle Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gretna-Hotels-Truffle-Lodge.h22239606.Hotel-Information) > > [The Copa Cabana at Copacabana](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Copacabana-Hotels-The-Copa-Cabana-At-Copacabana.h33554165.Hotel-Information) > > [The Carrington Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-The-Carrington-Hotel.h474003.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) > > [Heritage Trail Lodge Margaret River](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Margaret-River-Hotels-Heritage-Trail-Lodge-Margaret-River.h9624427.Hotel-Information) > > [RAC Ningaloo Reef Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Coral-Bay-Hotels-Ningaloo-Reef-Resort.h4257765.Hotel-Information) > > [RAC Monkey Mia Dolphin Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monkey-Mia-Hotels-RAC-Monkey-Mia-Dolphin-Resort.h2650828.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) > > [Ozone Hotel Kangaroo Island](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kingscote-Hotels-Aurora-Ozone-Hotel.h2737459.Hotel-Information) > > [Rochester Riverside Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rochester-Hotels-Rochester-Riverside-Caravan-Park.h65341713.Hotel-Information) > > [Lilianfels Resort & Spa - Blue Mountains](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Lilianfels-Resort-Spa-Blue-Mountains.h872.Hotel-Information) ### Flights ---
