Our family of 8 absolutely loved our stay over Easter. The size of the house is wonderful for a large family/group with 3 living areas and 4 bedrooms (2 up and 2 down). The house was well equipped with practically everything you would require.

Banksia House

My husband and I, 2 daughters, their partners and 3 little grandchildren spent 3 nights there. Beautiful house, very close to the beach. Great air conditioning as it was an extremely hot few days. Easy communication with the owner. 3 separate living areas meant there was plenty of space for everyone. Would love another visit as perfect accommodation and perfect location.

Relaxing house, well appointed and excellent location

My family and our small dog had a wonderful time while staying here. It was well appointed, and plenty of different zone for the kids to hang out in and the adults to enjoy the fire and the view. Location is great, very quiet, gorgeous view across the trees to the water in the distance. Neighbourhood was friendly with plenty of locals out walking every morning and night. The house was spotlessly clean, and all linen and towels were beautiful. We loved our time here and will definitely return! Thanks for having us!

Spacious modern beach house in prime location

The house is in an excellent location, with a lovely beach at the end of the street that is suitable for children and dogs. The house itself is spectacular (better than the photos), with ocean views and multiple living areas for different family members. The kitchen is very well appointed and it’s easy to prepare meals for larger groups. Philip was great to deal with. We will definitely be back.
