This dreamy little 50s shack is without doubt in the best possible position in Hyams Beach. However our otherwise perfect experience was marred by lack of maintainance and other niggly little things that if fixed would make this a 10 out of 5 review. Our biggest gripe was on arrival our wagon got stuck on the concrete footpath because there is a 100mm drop off from footpath to the gravel driveway. Had to find some rocks to make a ramp.Wouldn't be a problem for an SUV or 4wd but for normal cars it is a real issue. We had to use the 2nd bedroom as a place to lay out our clothes as there is no wardrobe or hanging space anywhere. BBQ was grotty and slow because one burner is clagged up.

The bar fridge struggled on a 32 degree day.(Tip: leave the fridge cupboard door ooen to let it cool easier) Air con struggled too. We would have liked to open windows so we could enjoy the coastal breeze and sound of waves at night but most of them have been nailed shut and there are NO flyscreens.
