Just step out the back gate and the path takes you directly to the beach. We spent each day floating in the water. We could return, quickly rinse in the ground floor shower and relax. Well equiped kitchen and the house has everything you could need. If you car is on the longer side you may not fit it in the lock up garage. The house is also walking distance to the shops. Central aircon upstair helped keep things cooler of an evening as well. ##### Rob M.

Everything you need is provided in a welcoming environment with the 'cherry on top' being its close proximity to the beach. You literally walk out the back gate and a couple of minutes stroll down a short path to the beautiful Shoal Bay. The house itself had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.

A brilliant property. Loved it. We will be back 100%. Great location, clean, fantastic aircon and whilst there was only three of us there is more than enough room for two families. Such good value for money !! ##### paul s. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christine N. 6 Jan 2018 #### 5 minutes to everything A presentable and clean household just the right size for 2 families. Situated in a quiet street that is 5 to 10 minutes away from everything. Lovely seaside decor that enhances the open space making it feel relaxing. Stayed there for 2 nights with no problems except for no scissors in the pantry- all other cutlery was supplied. Having WiFi would have definitely been a plus but my boyfriend and I were out all day so it wasn't too much of an issue. As it was extremely affordable for the quality and size of the townhouse I believe bringing my own linen was worth it, though it might be a hassle to others. ##### Christine N. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hilton London Metropole](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Hilton-London-Metropole.h26134.Hotel-Information) > > [5 Star Hotels in Athens Coast](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Athens-Coast-Hotels.s50-0-d6129449.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [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) > > [RAC Monkey Mia Dolphin Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monkey-Mia-Hotels-RAC-Monkey-Mia-Dolphin-Resort.h2650828.Hotel-Information) > > [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) > > [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) > > [Leonardo Hotel East Midlands Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Derby-Hotels-Jurys-Inn-East-Midlands-Airport.h10049.Hotel-Information) > > [Torquay Foreshore Caravan Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Torquay-Hotels-Torquay-Foreshore-Caravan-Park.h6001296.Hotel-Information) > > [InterContinental Barcelona by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Barcelona-Hotels-InterContinental-Barcelona.h28279.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) > > [De Vere Beaumont Estate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Windsor-Hotels-De-Vere-Beaumont-Estate.h1775624.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) > > [The Carrington Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-The-Carrington-Hotel.h474003.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) > > [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) > > [Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort, Port Douglas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Sheraton-Grand-Mirage-Resort.h8065.Hotel-Information) ### Packages > [Jorvik Viking Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jorvik-Viking-Centre-City-Centre.d6079231.Attraction)
