Holiday in Sawtell

Loved the break in Sawtell. The town remains a beautiful spot, people there are wonderful. The approaching cyclone meant we left a day early but it was very relaxing. Breakfasts, lunches, dinners were all fabulous...a huge range to pick from. A day in Bellingen was also great. Looking forward to the next visit.

Great apartment

Spacious apartment with everything you need. Position is great situated between Sawtell Main Street cafes and restaurants and beaches and headland. All short walking distance. Comfortable bed. Fans only in apartment (in bedrooms and living area). Aircon would make it fabulous.
