We had a wonderful family weekend away at the Golden Retreat. It had everything we needed and was only a few minutes walk from the beach. Definitely recommend!
Thank you Christine for the welcoming gifts. It was an unexpected treat. The house was well presented, comfortable, clean and spacious. We found it easy to access with plenty of parking.

Thanks Nikola! Very pleased you had a lovely stay. Thanks for looking after the property. Welcome back anytime :)
A very comfortable, cozy house with plenty of outdoor space for children and dogs to run around. The proximity to the beach was a major plus! The manager Christina was very prompt with her response to a request for help.
We stayed here with our family from the UK.
The balcony at the front has a gorgeous view of the water, and glimpses of Hyams beach. It is an easy walk to beaches and a fabulous park for the kids nearby.
Beds were comfy and the coffee machine was a nice touch. Would definitely stay again.
Thank you!
Loved the beach house.
Clean and modern.
Dog friendly with a secure yard which my dog absolutely loved.
Easy short walk to the beach and coffee shop.
Highly recommend to stay.

Pleasure to host. Thank you for looking after place, welcome back any time.
Hyams Beach is a family favourite. This property is well located & away from crowds. We loved the covered Verandah with amazing views to point perpendicular & the hunter moon rising. The laundry handy for young children.

Thank you for staying with us and and very pleased you enjoyed your stay. Thankyou for looking after the property. Really appreciate your understanding during water outage. Most welcome back anytime!!
I was hesitant to leave a review because I really didn’t want too many people finding out about this gem! Our family had a fantastic week away. Great location. Suited all members of our family; teens, parents, grandparents and dog. The owners were good communicators and quick to help. Next time we are heading to Hyams Beach we will definitely look to book this property

Had 4 nights in this property in peaceful Hyams beach. Situated between the bush and the beach it's a great locations, with good walks nearby. The property sleeps 8 but I wouldn't have tried that many people in winter time as it lends itself more to outdoor living with great spaces behind the house and a front deck, while the living area inside is relatively small. Only downside for us was very low beds, surprised noone else has commented - they do not suit anyone with mobility issues.

Hyams Beach
The view was distant & it took 24 hours to warm the house. The hot tub was a bathtub. Hyams has no corner shop & the only takeaway closes at 2.30. Overall just OK but pricey.

Hi Debra,
Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear that your stay didn’t meet your expectations.
The house is set one street back from the beach, as shown in the photos, and the view is often the highlight in guest reviews. Regarding heating, the house is equipped with five oil heaters—one for each bedroom and the main living space—which can heat the property as desired depending on the setting, certainly not taking 24 hours.
Regarding the hot tub, it was clarified prior to your stay that there is no hot tub, but rather a bathtub as shown in the photos.
Hyams is a small village with a local café, which provides the community and visitors great service. We provided detailed information about nearby shops and amenities to assist with planning. It is always recommended to plan ahead for any stay and to ask questions if in doubt.
Additionally, it’s important to report any accidental damage. We did find a broken bed slat, but out of goodwill, I did not raise this as an issue. We understand these things happen. Thanks for your feedback.
I honestly can't thank Christina enough. Her availability and communication was second to none, not that we had any issues whatsoever. It was a perfect break for us and our two large but well-behaved dogs.
The property is fully enclosed with amazing views, and we had everything we needed in terms of the kitchen, linens, and heaters, to make the most of a great winter break.
Thank you again,

Very disappointed on arrival with the state of the veranda: sand, pet hair everywhere, not swept, front door mat falling apart, door mat to main bedroom full of sand and pet hair. Small fridge on back verandah not working. Beds in every room not comfortable and so low to get in and out of. No ceiling fans in kitchen/living areas. This property needs a good cleaning with both the front and back outside areas and tidy up and presented in more of a professional manner. Get rid of the cobwebs and don’t have dog bowels scattered all over the place, keep them tidy in ONE area. Obviously very disappointed.
