Recent Reviews in Rocky Hills

Swansea Beach Chalets

10/10 Excellent

"What a great location, on the beach looking across the bay to Freycinet. Close to many great wineries and Cole’s Bay. We stocked up at the supermarket (IGA), with a great pub at the end of the street (walking distance). Such a great place to chill with a new beach seemingly around every corner or over every hill is another beautiful beach. Great spot to base and explore the Cole’s Bay region."

Freycinet Resort

"The Menu for breakfast needs to provide different food options."

Swansea Motor Inn

"This Motel is an absolute gem . Perfect location , super friendly and helpful sttaff and very reasonably priced . This was our second visit and we loved it again !!"

Iluka Holiday Centre

8/10 Good

"Great little cabin, kids loved the bunk beds. No wifi was good, kept the kids off their devices. Limited places to eat in the area."

Blue Gum Retreat - Freycinet Holiday Houses

10/10 Excellent

"We have already recommended this amazing home to family visiting Freycinet next year. It’s far enough out of town (1 minute drive) to be super quiet and close enough to easily go for a great dinner at Geographe and to get supplies for the shops. A very quick drive to the Freycinet walks too. The house is incredibly clean and spacious and well appointed. And the view the Hazard mountain from the lounge and the deck are mind blowing. We will miss this place"

Edge of the Bay

10/10 Excellent

"A wonderful experience with friendly staff. Great dining experience with a changing menu. The rooms are right on the bay which is very close to swimming beaches and perfect at night for star gazing. We stayed 3 night's but could have stayed for longer."

Piermont Retreat Swansea

8/10 Good

"We thought the resort was lovely, esp being so close to beach. Yes I did swim each day even though it was august. We were told property was wheelchair friendly but you need to have some Mobility. A lot of gravel made chair use a little tricky and a couple More grab rails in bathroom would have been good along with a bench in shower. Breakfast each day would be good as you are a short drive to town. Need to plan for dinner as Sunday and Monday restaurant is shut. Room Could have had a slightly better clean each day as I did leave a bit of sand about from The beach. But beds/heating/location and comfort were amazing."

Mid-century beach front house, on five private acres, dogs welcome

10/10 Excellent

"A wonderful winter getaway with our two little dogs. We loved the amazing views from the deck, especially the sunrise over Freycinet. The walk to the beach was short and easy, and apart from some birds, we had the whole beach to ourselves. The house was warm, comfortable, and thoughtfully set up for a relaxing holiday with our pooches. We had a great time and we look forward to visiting again."
