Great Beach Stay

The Beach house is great if you just want to come and sit by the beach. You need to take food and drink as there are no shops close by.

I had a wonderful stay at the property with my family. The highlight was the stunning beach view. My son was thoroughly entertained with the X-Box and other games. I would highly recommend this property to my friends.

Happy days at Primrose Bay

Fabulous, family friendly accomodation in a lovely, quiet location with beautiful views over the water. The House was supremely comfortable and has everything one needed. The Little general store was a convenient few minutes walk away. Can not fault our stay and would love to come again one day.

Nice but basic space by the beach. The property was clean but older. The biggest difficulty for us was the request to limit shower to 3 minutes or less so we wouldn’t run out of water. That was a bit stressful. Maybe it would be ok for a group of all guys but harder for us with long hair. The beds were comfortable and there was a lot of space in the house for a family. We traveled with 3 of our kids and it felt like we had plenty of room.

Perfect family beachy holiday house

What a fabulous destination! What a fabulous house! What a fabulous view! Chris was so easy to communicate with. House was clean, spacious and homely. I would highly recommend this place for a summer vacation but even right in the heart of winter there is nothing I can fault. Thank you for the heads up in regard to the southern lights Chris and thank you for letting us stay in your gorgeous home. Will be back again some day with a better camera! Cheers Lauri

Nice place to stay but a bit tired and needs some work to be done

Though we enjoyed this property it is tired and needs some TLC. These were the specific things we noticed. 1. The cleaning spray under the sink was empty. We did find a bottle.in the cupboard later but it would have been good if that was full given COVID. 2. It would be great if there were a few more wine glasses. There is only one wine glass, the rest are for bubbles 3. Couple of very large spider webs hanging from the large tree in the backyard with two nasty looking spiders in them. It would be nice if these were removed. 4. Some BBQ tongs and something to use to clean the BBQ would also be handy

What a wonderful weekend we’ve had at the Beach escape! Perfect location, the house had everything we could have asked for and more. It was spotlessly clean and a lovely place to relax. Lots to entertain the kids and adults! Hopefully we’ll be back!

Fantastic Accommodation

We absolutely loved the Beach Escape. It has everything you need for a really comfortable and enjoyable stay. The location was perfect as the beach was just over the road and the views from the house were just beautiful. It was clean and spacious and really well set up for the kids. Highly recommended! Thank you Beach Escape.

Extraordinarily Presented Family Beach Property

We enjoyed the Beach Escape with it's great view and all the facilities the property had to offer. A handy base to explore the Tasman Peninsula. Immaculate upkeep with all modern conveniences. We loved the little extra tfeatures, including plentiful kids toys, books, games and the XBOX to keep us entertained on a rainy day.
