Family getaway
1minute walk to the beach, and short drive to the other beaches. Large house and decent size backyard. Has everything we need and is comfortable. Dog friendly and has a small kennel for small sized dog outside with food and water bowls. The dog and kids enjoyed their stay.

Callala Bay holiday
We had a very wet week at Callala (which was always going to make our stay challenging). The house was adequate for our needs but does need a clean with bits left under beds etc. The coffee machine had mould in it and we had to make the yard dog proof as both gates didn’t close when we arrived. In saying that we enjoyed our stay, the kitchen is new which was great and it was just a short walk to the beautiful bay, perfect for young children.

Callala
Callala was beautiful place to stay. Accommodation was ok but the place needs some TLC. Needs to be checked for previous dog mess!! Netflix advertised but unavailable for the whole stay and we had 5 days of rain. Overpriced

Fairly average old beachhouse
It was a fairly average old beach house with a lot of semi-working qualities - taps loose, fly screens a bit run down. There was basically no acoustic separation between the of the rooms / floors. Yard is big and nice. The neighbours played their TV super loud a lot which ruined a bit of the ambiance. Location is not the nicest part of Jervis bay (adjacent beach was pretty average) but central location to get north or south. Some good local restaurants with a good fish and chip shop and pizzeria.

Awesome little getaway
Sinead was a great host. Very responsive and got back to us very quickly. The house was in a good location. We had 2 families stay with kids so the split level was good, we were on the top level and the other family in the bottom. It's not the most extravagant house, but if you are looking for a affordable place that fits a larger group, this place is great :)

Basic but okay
The location of Sinead’s property is great, nice and close to the bay. The property is very basic though. Heating was insufficient, kitchen tap broken (still usable and to be fair Sinead was not aware it was broken), fire pit was a few rocks clumped together in the back corner of the yard and the home was drafty. Parts have been upgraded, new floors, paint and kitchen. Beds were reasonably comfortable, although we were very glad we brought our own blankets as the light weight doonas wouldn’t have cut it. Sinead was friendly and quick to respond to questions. Would be a great house for two families looking for an okay (not cheap) priced holiday.

Great spot for a group/family getaway
Second time staying with Sinead and it's been a pleasure both times. The house is simple, clean and comfortable, an easy walk to the beach. Both times we've been a group of 8+ adults and found that we had all the space & utensils/amenities we needed. Sinead is a responsive, relaxed and helpful host. Would happily stay again.

Just what we needed
The house was amazing for our large group and had everything we needed. We were a group of soccer parents and our daughters and the bonding experience our girls had this weekend was amazing. The walk down to the bay was easy and quick and we went star-gazing on the sand at night. Our city girls had never seen so many stars! Just a bit further along the sand was a bbq and picnic tables, and a playground, where we enjoyed breakfast and a chat with the locals. We even shared our sausage sandwiches with a few early morning walkers.
