Quiet waterfront retreat
The property was clean and comfortable in a beautiful spot. Close to beaches and town. Unfortunately the local coffee shop and general store had closed down (which was described on the property listing) but the nearest town was not far.

Perfect for our family of 3. Hosts were responsive to questions we had. The house itself was well equipped from kitchen appliances to variety of board games. The view of the water at priceless - amazing to see first thing in the morning and at sunset.

Situated on the waters edge - wonderful. Property is tired and needs a refresh.
While there was a mix up initially, the location is great and the reason I chose the property. The property itself was disappointing. Understanding that it is likely a 1940s fibro fisherman’s cottage which has some charm, the interior requires updating. The 1970s stove and oven is not inviting and requires replacing. The sofa bed has a handwritten note stuck to the wall above it advising it is broken. Flooring and lighting need a refresh. The vertical blinds on the main viewing window is missing the wand mechanism to open/close and move the blinds. For the price, ice-trays and teabags would also be nice.

Wedding weekend away
Great for a short weekend away while we attended a Wedding in the area. If we could, we would have stayed longer. Property was clean and spacious for four adults and our 5 month old. The driveway is a little steep to get to property but it’s worth it to be located right on the water. Bub loved watching the waves and ducks swim by. Cute little waterfront property, recommend to stay!

Relaxing fun getaway - home away from home
It was a much needed vacay for chattier family after another year of the pandemic and lockdowns. We absolutely loved the location location location- breathtaking sunsets, morning water front views, sunset dips in the bay and exploring booderee national park. We will definitely be back again and again 🙏🙏🙏👍

Location was perfect. Accomodation was basic but the view made up for it.
Location was perfect for kids! Lots of flies, spiders and Doona cover need to be washed before we used it. The outdoor dining table and chairs were dangerous for the kids to use as they had timber missing and nails exposed. The lounge was ripped (looked like dog claw marks) and there was no wifi which if your travelling and needing to work then it could be difficult. Would have been good to watch a movie one of the nights with the kids but smart TV wasn’t connected to wifi so couldn’t watch anything. No dishwasher and the kitchen equipment and cooking facilities were very basic. No tea or coffee supplied.

Beautiful getaway
We stayed from the 6th till the 10th of December for my birthday with my husband and 2 year old daughter. It was a very nice stay, location was perfect. The cob webs and dead flys on the window ledge as well as broken blinds were not nice to see. Also the smoke alarm in the kitchen when off all the time as theres no fan there while cooking. Maybe better to move it to a better location. Overall its a nice little place and would love to be back. Morning views, kangaroos, water and sun room were our highlights. Thanks for having us 😊

Great Retreat
Beautiful panoramic views of the water welcomed us into the home. Comfortable beds and furnishings contributed to our pleasure and relaxation. We enjoyed paddle boats and swimming in the water, just metres from the back door, and Hyam’s beach just 5 minutes in the car. We explored the Jervis Bay area, dined out at Huskisson and Vincentia, and found beautiful pottery just down the road! We can’t wait to visit again! Thank you :D

Back for a second time
Marcus the property owner gave us credit for the days we didn’t use when we were there in dec/jan around the bushfires. He didn’t have to but he did and we attatched a few more days for another great getaway. We love it and will be back again. This time we got to explore the national parks within a stones throw and they were magical. A great location and a great place to visit.

Wedding weekend
My family had a great stay at the Palm Tree Cottage - it was comfortable and clean and had what we needed. We have family in Erowal Bay so the neighbourhood was already familiar, though it was lovely meeting the neighbours in that area. It was a full on weekend, which meant we sadly didn't get to make the most of lounging about. The sunroom was perfect for looking out at the water when the weather turned wet. It'll be a good option in the future, when we need extra space.

Not too bad
Quite a nice location, lovely water views. Beds comfortable. Bathroom needed better cleaning and place was very hot and stuffy which gave a stale old smell. More air conditioners needed as the one only cooled the lounge area directly in front of it. Loved the area.
