Tranquil Easter stay

My husband and our dog had a very enjoyable stay at this cute secluded cottage over the Easter long weekend. It's very clean with a comfortable bed and a modern bathroom. It was a great place to unwind with beautiful views and a relaxing outdoor hot tub. Short walk to Whale Beach.

Refreshing and relaxing

A 5 day stay to unwind and be near the beach. Lynn is a wonderful host and gave fantastic advice about where to go and provided what ever was needed and offered so much extra. The hot tub with a view was unbelievable and the facilities are just what you need to satisfy every need. I will be back as the stay completely fufilled the brief.

We had a very enjoyable stay at Beauty Drive, and Lynne is an excellent host. The accommodation was immaculately clean, modern, and very comfortable. The location is utterly stunning, with amazing views, and the beach is a short stroll away. Highly recommend to anyone who is hoping for a quiet, and beautiful getaway.

Whale Beach Cottage Review

This was a lovely stay! My friend and I had a relaxing stay here - the cottage was nice and secluded. Lynne was great with communication (very friendly and reasonable) and the stay felt very private. The spa was our highlight - it was pleasantly hot and enjoyable for late-night chats. The bedroom and bathroom were nicely air-conditioned and clean. Outdoor shower was a nice bonus and the views from the deck were stunning. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to getaway for a few nights as a Northern Beaches local!

Cosy Weekend Getaway

Check in was a breeze - great communication with Lynne. She was very welcoming and loved our dog. The property was exactly how it was described in the listing. Clean and cosy. The WiFi signal is not strong but it didn't bother us - We enjoyed our quiet 2 night stay. Our dog also loved exploring the property!
