Fantastic stay

The house was absolutely lovely to stay at. Was in a great location and had a great yard to keep the puppies in while we went to fraser and out for dinner. Neighbourhood was quiet and peaceful and all the people were very polite.

Loved our stay

Sandy Paws was awesome. We loved walking along the beach twice a day and we loved having our family and their dog able to stay with us. It was a bonus being able to play pool as well. The house is large and very well equipped. Would definitely recommend.

Very happy with our stay, would highly recommend to others wanting a place to stay in Burrum Heads. House is very clean & comfortable & pet friendly. Garage to park your car in which is great. We booked on Stays but it’s through the local Realeaste which were easy to communicate with. Payment was easy to navigate, no issues whatsoever. Very quiet street. Close to the water, local shops. Only 1/2hr drive to Harvey Bay. Would recommend to do your food shopping before you arrive. Tavern isn’t great food not good. Bowls club is nice and the food was ok. The meat from the local butcher was fantastic and the bakery was fantastic also. They do have a local footworks but no Coles or Woolworths would have to go to Harvey Bay. My husband & our fur baby stayed for the week. Would come back & stay again.

Great break

Apart from there being more forms than you could poke a stick at it all went smoothly. I (foolishly) thought when I entered my credit card during the booking process that was payment taken care of. Nope That was only HomeAway paid. And to avoid credit card fees I paid by bank transfer, but I still needed to enter my credit card again in a later form in case there was any cleaning surplus required. Dang, seemed like a lot of processing and entering all my details over again. I’m not sure why HomeAway and Elders can’t at least share my contact info. The picking up and dropping off keys was easy, as was every thing else. The ”forms” part just seemed really dragged out and repetitive. The house was great, close to the beach and the mesh screens and air conditioning kept the hungry mozzies at bay. Lots of long walks along the beach. The local fish n chip shop is beaut - my fishing isn’t. A bonus to be able to part my car and boat in a garage! So all in all, once we got past all the pesky online forms we had a great holiday and highly recommend Sandy Paws. Zac also gives his woof of approval.

Comfortable pet friendly house

Our second time staying in this place. Very comfortable pet friendly house so our fur baby was also able enjoy our stay. Short walk to the beach. Very quiet area. Perfect if you are seeking a place to get away from it all.

Great beach access and comfortable house

We had a wonderful time here at Sandy Paws. My dog loved how close to the beach we were, and such a good place to run free. The house was spacious, well set up, clean and comfortable. Would definitely recommend to those with kids and fur-kids. Pool table was a nice touch.

Had a lovely stay

This property is in a great location with a very relaxing feel about it. We took push bikes and rode all around Burrum Heads. Kitchen is extremely well equip, the only thing I would say is more food storage containers would be helpful for longer stays (but that is quite minor really). Beds were very comfortable, plenty of room for a family holiday. Enjoyed seeing the kangaroos in the front yard.
