This is a lovely house with a very calm and relaxing feel to it.Five adults, two children and one dog stayed for two nights.There are two areas with televisions and an upstairs lounge to escape to for quiet moments.The weather was beautiful so most of the time we spent on the deck looking out at the wet land, and the birdlife. My family enjoy bird watching and were excited to see a bird which travels from Japan to this area.It is close to a dog friendly beach and walking tracks.And there is a local cafe within walking distance.I would look forward to returning sometime in the future.

Quiet location

After a couple of teething problems, which were expeditiously sorted by the property manager, we had a lovely stay. The fire provided warmth and ambience, there was a nice view of the wetlands and the kitchen caught any sun on offer.

Would happily stay again

My girlfriends and I enjoyed a really lovely relaxing stay at Oceanside Haven. The location is perfect and the house is very comfortable. Amazing cushions as well! Our only suggestion for a more perfect holiday house would be if an information pack was provided about the house and how to operate things such as the coffee machine, what do with the bins, tv/streaming info, etc. we did work it all out, but it may have helped. Cheers!
