⚠️ Pre-Authorization Damage Deposit Hold
To ensure coverage for any potential incidentals or damages during your stay, Bush to Bay Holiday Stays will place a temporary pre-authorization hold of $250 on your credit card two days before check-out. This is a standard practice in the hospitality industry and serves as a placeholder for any additional charges before final billing.
Important: A pre-authorization hold is not a charge—it simply reserves funds temporarily. If no incidental costs or damages occur, the hold will be released after check-out, depending on your bank’s processing time.

Beautiful sea view
The Batch is located in one of the best scenic view location, overlooking the sea. Clean property equipped with most of the amenities. Disappointed with the tank water high metal content. Pls take enough drinking water.

Lots of room
A spacious house that is fairly well appointed although could do with a bit of a refresh. Good location although the highway traffic is noisy and fairly constant. Enjoyed the long beach walks.

An Excellent Spot
Pros: A well laid out, nicely furnished and comfortable house, in an absolutely stunning location.
Cons: Sometimes traffic noise was annoyining. Also it would have been nice to get the "Things you should know" email earlier than two days before arrival.
