The place was secluded but so close to local cafes and beautiful beaches. Affordable but comfortable. Website states it has a microwave but it doesn’t. The wildlife was amazing with kookaburras coming to visit!

Peaceful and serene
Lovely stay - well equipped, comfy bed, great shower, beautiful bush location, extra thoughtful touches like free bikes and little pots of mince in the freezer to feed the blue kingfishers! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this well designed and compact apartment. We will be back - if only to make sure we try the outdoor bath next time! Great service - as always - by Best of Magnetic too.

A Little Bush Hut
I loved the little Bush hut, my wife not so much. It's exactly what it says, in the bush behind some houses, also in the bush. Completely private and secluded, only the birds and lizards for company. The back yard and front could do with some cleaning and maintenance, and somehow the floor tiles, which look just like plywood, always look grubby, even when clean. If solitude and nature are your thing, you will love it. Recommend a walk down to le Paradis restaurant and takeaway, but take a good torch for the walk home. Oh, and say hi to the tame kookabura.
