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.

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.

Beautiful Cottage and comfortable stay

We enjoyed our short stay and the stunning view of this water-front property. It is way more beautiful than than in the pictures. The property is very clean, looks like newly renovated, the sound of the water through out the day is very healing, overall excellent for short stay. A couple things that were uncomfortbale were getting down to the property from someone else's driveway is a bit tricky the first time and there is not enough bin space to throw the trash. Also, bringing your own sheets and towels is cumbersome, especially if people are flying in and not driving. Hiring from the owners is very expensive for 3 or 4 days. Other than that we highly recommend this cottage and will love to stay there again.

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!
