Great getaway

Had a great time away with family. Pick up from the marina was a nice extra not having to lug everything to the house. House is huge with plenty of room for everyone. Spa was great. Nice and quiet with a lot of wildlife.

Great place for large groups

We had a great weekend here with our sons and some of their mates. It was easy to get around on foot or on the bikes provided and there was plenty of things to do to keep them busy. The house has plenty of room so everyone can find themselves a place to chill. The spa and back deck were great. We'll be back!

We had a long weekend at this amazing property. It was child/teenager friendly. The host was very helpful. The house was really clean. Their was so much to do in a close proximity. Best to have your own water transport if you want to explore around the waterways. Otherwise relax and unwind on the beautiful deck or in the spa.

Perfect Home For A Family Holiday!

The hosts of the property were absolutely amazing throughout the whole process, they were great at communicating when booking and made sure we had everything arranged for our stay. The home was absolutely beautiful, couldn’t have asked for anything better. Was so peaceful waking up every morning and seeing the wallabies right out our door. We will 100% be back.

Perfect location, beautiful house!

Salty Ayre is perfectly located at Couran Point. A lovely walk across the grass to the pontoon, and plenty of things to do for a weekend get away. The house was beautifully designed with an amazing living area, rolling into the deck. Protected nicely from the sea breezes. Highly recommend Salty Ayre!

The Most Relaxing Getaway

We booked this beautiful property for a quick getaway for my mother’s birthday and it was the best getaway we’ve ever had (including international travelling… I know!) The location of the property is perfect, so close to the jetty and canal, far enough away from other properties besides the house behind which was empty anyway. Every morning was a joy to wake up to wallaby’s bouncing over the land either side of the property and faintly heading the waves crashing from the surf beach. The amenities are everything you could need or want and the house is the perfect size. The outdoor spa just tops everything off and the perfect way to end the day after fishing, boating/jet skiing or bike riding around the island. The owners were extremely helpful, attentive and communicative especially with our reservation being hindered by a snap lockdown but Suzy was amazing and quick to work out a solution and help our getaway get back on track. If you’re reading this and considering booking this property just do it! You won’t regret it.

Island getaway

The house is very clean, fabulous layout for privacy to gathering areas. Everything you need from all kitchen utensils to. Cupboard full of games. And bikes to explore. Communication with the host was always prompt and very clear on what’s needed for your stay Highly recommend booking this house for an island experience
