Great beachfront holiday

We had a fantastic holiday, right on the beach. Nice views, kitchen had all we needed, and we appreciated the heat pump to cool down the house for sleeping in the evening.

Wonderful Spot

Great little bach right on the beach. Safe swimming beach for kids. So nice to listen to the sea at night and wake up to sunrise over the water. A special place that i came to many times as a child, nice to stay again with my grandkids.

Awesome bach right on beach

Arrived to a very clean, tidy bach with everything needed for a lovely stay. The view is amazing - and access to beach is down the front stairs. We enjoyed our stay so much, and want to go back next summer.

Magical place, fantastic location.

We all really loved our stay in your bach. Thank you for sharing it with us. 3 year old grandson spent all day playing in the sand and didn't want to leave. It is a magical place. The bach itself is beautifully kept and has everything you need. We loved it.

Fabulous Location

We loved our stay at Martins Bay. The location is awesome. Kitchen facilities are good, the shower base is cracked (it was the same last year when we visited too), the shower drain is broken and the shower curtain shows mould. The duvee covers are due for laundering - a bit musty.

Great all round!

Our family usually camps at Martin's Bay every year, but this year we were looking for an alternative as the weather usually washes us out. This bach is perfect!! Love the location right on the beach. AND it is so well appointed - you really don't need to bring much with you. Thank you for providing such a wonderful place to stay - we are looking forward to staying next year again!
