Easy walk to Pub and cafe, with a lovely relaxed feeling to the home.
We all thoroughly enjoyed our traditional Grand Final weekend away, with Wyes Choice the best we have rented.
Will definately be back to this one!!!

Place was a nice relaxed, chilled area. Great view of ocean, with wonderful drive along the great ocean road. Great spot for dogs, friends/family low key getaway, the fireplace was amazing and kept the house warm at all times 😊

Thank you Lyn for being terrific guests and for providing your feedback, much appreciated. We look forward to welcoming you back again soon. Kind regards
The house was so cosy and well equipped with everything that you could need. The deck and fireplaces were well used during our stay and it was only a short walk to the beach and for coffee. We were not aware that one of the bedrooms did not have a door on it which was disappointing but overall, a great place to stay with fantastic views.

Thank you Mitchell for being wonderful guests and for providing your positive feedback, I will amend the bedroom description to reflect that this room does not have a door.
We look forward to welcoming you back again soon.
Kind regards,
The accommodation had everything we required. As 4 x adult family members and a dog, we had plenty of separate open spaces for us to do our own thing or come together. The space is large, great kitchen and pantry and excellent views with short walk to beach, general store and pub.

We loved our stay with several teenagers and our family dog. Beautiful house, so close to the beach and with incredible views. We spent much of our time on the glorious deck. When we had rainy days there were plenty of comfy spots to curl up. Would definitely recommend this property.

Thank you Tamara for being terrific guests and for providing your feedback, this is greatly appreciated. We look forward to welcoming you back again soon. Kind regards
A typical 80s style beach house that has kept its kitsch touch, but with updated and modernised kitchen. Lovely touches and dog friendly our pooches and kids had an absolute blast. Perfect spot for a 4 day long weekend break with easy access to the beach without the killer hills other parts of Wye has… but oh and the views from that deck and waking up to the ocean - to die for! Million dollar views from the deck and bedrooms!

Thank you Natasha for being terrific guests and for providing your positive feedback below, much appreciated. We look forward to welcoming you back in the near future. Kind regards,
We had a lovely break here over the summer. The house is great for a family holiday. Only downside is that’s the house is close to the road. But this also means it’s close to the beach!

Wye River Getaway
A great house to relax, amazing location with views of the ocean. Well appointed and the teens loved the games room.
The deck is getting a little tired but a good beach house feel.
Good for families in warmer weather. House very cold but manager provided heaters and there was lots of wood to keep fire going. House is not the nice Grey as in picture but dull army brown! Only ensuite upstairs so other guests had to go downstairs to bathroom. If weather better would be great. Close to beach and pub.

great location , great house, great view !
Really spacious house with comfortable furnishings. Kitchen amazingly well stocked, firewood chopped and ready to use, plenty of towels and soaps, blankets and doonas, heaps of pillows......
We loved the balcony and indoor/outdoor room with louvred roof and concertina glass doors.
We could easily walk to the beach and hotel.
What more could you want? Thanks heaps!
