About this property

By The Sea 1 Crescent Head

Bathed in natural light thanks to its prized northerly aspect, the unit captures cooling sea breezes while staying protected from the harsher southerlies—making it an ideal year-round escape. Step out onto the elevated full-length verandah, where mornings start with coffee in the sun and afternoons roll into laid-back BBQs with a view.

Inside, the home offers a practical and comfortable layout for families or small groups, sleeping up to five guests. Whether you're here for long beach days, creek swims, or simply to unwind, this is a low-maintenance base in a location that does all the heavy lifting.

Set in a quiet yet central position on popular Willow Street, By The Sea 1 is all about easy holidays—park the car, slow the pace, and enjoy everything Crescent Head has to offer.

Love Staying Here

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The unit is neat and tidy and in a very convenient location. It is getting a little dated but being upgraded gradually which is good to see. Was a bit of a dead spot for internet, which is unusual because it's never been that bad previous years.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This unit was in a near-perfect location being a short walk to both the shops and the beach. It was clean and tidy with under cover parking for your vehicle. Everything worked well and there was plenty of crockery, glasses, cutlery, and utensils.The beds were comfortable and the shower was great. When I had occasion to deal with the staff managing the property they were very pleasant. I can imagine becoming a regular there...
