We stayed for 2 nights to attend a lunch engagement at Jonah’s

Blue salt cottage is absolutely charming, the owner even left snacks and a cheese board to welcome us, which was a lovely gesture thank you. The view is amazing and it is located close to Jonah’s restaurant. On the final day we walked up to Palm beach lighthouse which I highly recommend. Overall a lovely experience thanks Rebecca and family for sharing your home.

What a lovely cottage!

Clean, beautifully appointed and a great location. Rained every day but it didn’t matter because the cottage is a wonderful place to hang out to read, play games and relax and there’s so much to do in the area that is non-beach related (movies, great book store, wine bars and walks). Thought we would cook (the kitchen is excellent!) but didn’t because with the superb whale beach deli for morning sustenance and so many nice restaurants at hand we couldn’t be bothered! We’ll definitely stay again.

Beautiful place, terrible access

The place was stunning and beautifully designed. Unfortunately the access to the cottage was a huge downfall. It doesn’t really mention that the only access means crossing an extremely busy road with your luggage. I checked in alone with my baby and I had to run across the road 5 times with my baby carrying bags up to the place. Very very dangerous. The description also implies you can walk to whale beach, this is certainly not the case. There is no walking from this area to anywhere, you need a car if you are staying here.

Thank you for your review. Our listing stated that the cottage is on Barrenjoey Rd and parking in on Thyra Rd. If you read the listing you would be aware of this. I am sorry that you had a bad experience arriving in Sydney and the rental company gave away your baby seat hence you arrived on your own without your husband. This was something out of our control and we shouldn't wear the negative experience. The cottage has stairs up to Surf Rd past our main house which runs down to Whale Beach which is an easy walk. So unless you aren't into waking it is easily accessible. These guests left the cottage in a state ignoring all check out rules so the garbage wasn't collected etc. They walked out leaving things everywhere and the most upsetting thing was vomit on a quilt plus sheets. I wouldn't rent to Daizie or her group as she had no respect for our cottage. Thus group wasn't our normal Stayz clientele.

Property was under construction and renovations and not fit for rental.

In the state that the property was in for our stay, it should not have been available for rent. Workmen were onsite and using heavy machinery at 7:00am for two of the three mornings within one metre of the bedroom windows.. Construction material and rubbish lined the only pathway to the cottage and the stairs to the beach were blocked due to the excavation work. Workmen looked into the cottage windows while onsite. There was no privacy for guests and access to property was dangerous given the workmen, heavy machinery and construction rubbish piled up along the only path to cottage. On top of this, the property's smoke alarm had been removed. This property was not fit for rental and this was brought to the owner's attention and we have received no reply after three weeks. I now find that the property is no longer available for rent and shouldn't have been at the time of our stay. We have photographic evidence of all the above and feel that we deserve a full refund. We would appreciate that Stayz contact us regarding our inconveniences, as the owner has failed to do so. Catherine

Pretty little cottage (but noisy location!)

I rented both this cottage and the top house for my 50th birthday. Everything inside the house is just as it looks in the pictures, so it’s very nicely appointed and well priced. The owner is very quick to respond to questions, which is helpful. The owner also let us check in a couple of hours early, which was sincerely appreciated. The major issue for my guests was not being able to sleep past 5am because of the thundering traffic on Barrenjoey Road just below the house. I have never stayed in Palm Beach, so didn’t realise this was an issue with the suburb. My friends and I are all lucky to live in very quiet parts of Sydney, so it was an unwelcome surprise to realise we were somewhere with constant traffic noise. The other disappointment was that the prominently pictured kayaks and stand up paddle board did not come with lifejackets, because they are not really part of the rental. That would have been helpful to know upfront. It would be better if those pictures were deleted from the listing. I had two lifejackets with me because I brought a canoe from home, so we did use the kayaks, and the owner didn’t seem to mind, but our vision of a group paddling adventure didn’t work out. Overall I would say that you would be very happy with the house if you don’t mind traffic noise, and you weren’t relying on using the watercraft.

A lovely place, just perfect

The property was even nicer than I expected. Roomy, nice views of the water, lots of light (and good blinds when light not wanted). A nice cheese waiting for us, too. Quiet. Parking convenient. We were in town for a wedding at Jonah's, which was very convenient; we also swam at Whale Beach (invigorating) and had breakfast at Palm Beach (delicious). Thanks!

Stayed with my brother and sister-in-law for 4 nights to attend my nephews wedding. The photos did not lie. It was the quaintest. Little house and we had so much fun. Would totally recommend. Parking was not an issue at all. Thanks Rebecca, great house and great host.

Perfect weekend

We felt very comfortable with the cottage. It was very well set up for a perfect weekend. It did not matter if it rained or had clear skies, we were able to feel cosy and at home with all you provided. We loved being welcomed with special treats to settle into our stay. Thank you for all the care you took, we had a special anniversary weekend. Cristina and Allan.

A slice of the south of France in tropical Palm Beach

I didn't want to leave this charming cottage after spending 6 nights there. It was private, comfortably appointed in French provincial style, and the lush tropical garden and view to Pittwater were lovely and very restful. The owner, Rebecca was friendly and prompt in communication. I will definitely be back.
