Great property with spectacular views.Apartment is very functional and clean.Lin was a gracious host and very helpful; great conversation. Would not hesitate to recommend.
We’re a retired couple that chose this property for a 1 night stay on our travels north, primarily because of uninterrupted vista down and out towards coastline. Didn’t disappoint. Situated high up in hinterland area of Coffs Harbour. Tranquil, quiet bush setting. Easy assess. Amazing sunrise, relaxing evening with our pre-purchased drinks and snacks. Host Lin was excellent and made every effort to ensure we enjoyed our stay. Highly recommend property.

Overlooking the ocean and the morning sunrise is beautiful to see from the top. Well kept unit. Short 15 minutes drive to Park Beach Plaza for shopping and close to main attractions. Lin is friendly and easy to communicate with and we loved our stay.

It is an 8 k drive up from the pacific highway but well worth the effort. The apartment is fabulously appointed and great views out to sea. It is ideal for 3 plus night stays. It is an "off the grid" property so being water and power wise added to the ambiance. There is an office area should you be on business. We could have stayed all week. very very good place to chill out.
The place was great and exactly what we were looking for. Our host, Lin, was absolutely fantastic—very responsive and communicated perfectly throughout our trip. One of the highlights was the amazing night view; we got to see a crystal-clear sky and a beautiful moon.
Ehrlich gesagt ist an dieser Unterkunft außer der tollen Aussicht nichts gut. Wir haben bei unserer Australien, Rundreise, viele Unterkünfte kennen gelernt, aber diese war am schlechtesten. Vor allem die Sauberkeit fand ich richtig eklig. Die Bettwäsche und die Handtücher haben richtig muffig gerochen, so dass man sich wirklich ge ekelt hat. Der Kaffee als Instant Pulver ist wohl ein Witz, da haben wir in Ankünften Nespresso Maschinen erlebt, die wirklich einen tollen Kaffee gemacht haben. Außerdem waren einige Tassen dreckig. Den Rest wollte ich mir gar nicht mehr anschauen. Das Bett mit nur 1,40 m Breite ist ein Witz für zwei Leute und die Möbel, wirken wie wie aus dem Sperrmüll zusammengesucht. Die Stühle sind so durch gesessen, dass man kaum drauf sitzen kann. Das Bad ist ein dunkles Loch, und nicht wie auf den Fotos, mit Licht durchflutet. , weil die Tür neben dem Waschbecken geschlossen ist. Außerdem ist die Lüftung so laut, dass man sich, wenn die Lüftung läuft kaum im Bad aufhalten kann. Bei der Begrüßung wurde man schon von Hunden Hundegebell willkommen geheißen war für mich als jemanden der Angst vor Kunden hat ein richtig toller Start war. Grundsätzlich würde ich hier nie wieder übernachten.
