Wonderful location with an amazing view. The apartment was large inside so plenty of space. Car space was too snug for our large car so had to park on the street which was fine. No answers to my questions from real estate that host the property via the booking app or email so had to call them. Otherwise helpful! Had a really great trip. Would stay here again!

Reviewer Comments:
Our family has made its annual pilgrimage to Nambucca Heads and the location of Jelga on Sea is perfect. Unit No. 6 is spacious, well appointed and comfortable, although we found some areas not as clean as we would expect. We would recommend Jelga on Sea to anyone who doesn't mind climbing the 6 flights of stairs, however the view is worth the climb!

We approached the real estate on the Monday 6 may to let them know the state of the unit we gave them photos they we suppose to get back to us on Friday 10 as they said that we might get a free night to stay . We didn’t hear back we were going to stay an extra couple but decide to leave .We let them know about the state of the bbq it was really disgusting you wouldn’t even cleanessuse it .For the money that we paid we expect it to be clean I really don’t think it was clean prior to us arriving.

Perfect location. Views magnificent
Nice peaceful location right on the river. Sitting on the balcony watching dolphins cruse past.
Secure parking space which was helpful as the Main Street was only a short distance away.
