Lovely rural location

We loved our stay at Baylys Beach. The unit was quiet, clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. Our children loved running around the avocado trees and playing with the owners' son. Thanks for having us, we'd love to come again if we're ever back in the area!

Great accommodation, wheelchair accessible and friendly host

Both Wayne and Pauline provided an accommodation that feels like a home away from home. They were very accommodative in providing a handrail and chair for someone who is in a wheelchair. Their avocado farm is a nice walk through. The closeness to Baylys Beach was a real bonus which means we could get there within 5 minutes.
