Awesome Place!
This is such a great place and quiet location. We had 5 adults including 3 younger people, and everyone loved the layout, interior decor, facilities, well-stocked kitchen, wi-fi and beach views. The additional caring touches of coffee pods, special teas, bread making machine and ingredients all made it wonderful. Spotlessly clean. Lovely linen. The communication with Greg was outstanding, he was so quick to message back and generous with his information, advice, flexibility and openness. We would highly recommend this place, it's a fantastic spot. Thank you Greg and Sue!

Vardy’s shack at Mount Dutton Bay is amazing. It’s so peaceful and relaxing. Well equiped, very clean, on the beach, beach view from lounge and both bedrooms, comfortables beds and pillows. We made fresh bread, caught fish, (fish cleaning facility) seen kangaroos, dolphins, emus and many bird life. Seating and table out the front and the back. A run for your dog. Paddle board and 2 kayaks. We had an amazing fire in the fire pit on the beach. HEAVEN…

A slice of paradise!
Vandy's Shack has everything! We brought relatives from the UK and they fell in love with the "shack"....kayaking straight from the back door - we were lucky to paddle with a pod of dolphins and a sea lion! We used the shack as a base to explore - beautiful Farm Beach, up to Baird Bay to swim with the sea lions, and oysters in Coffin Bay. Just fabulous! So good to go home, cook dinner with a cool drink or 2 in hand and enjoy watching the world go by - the shack really had everything you could need. We would all love to come back....

They don’t make shacks like these anymore. Lovely retro feel but has what you need for a standard bnb. Felt like my childhood. Was great to sit outside facing the water and watch the world go by including the diverse bird life. Highly recommended.

Beach shack
Great place for a relaxing stay. Very windy so we couldn’t use kayaks and paddle board. Not the best beach to walk out and have a swim. Absolutely spot less and air con worked really well. Recommend
