Terrific weekend for Bodyboarding State Titles

What a lovely cottage. Comfortable and cozy, the kitchen is well set up with everything you will need and the beds are comfortable. The best feature is the back deck overlooking a beautiful backyard with huge trees housing different singing birds. The driveway is lit which was helpful at night. There is a lot of restaurants to choose from and its a great hub to explore the island. I would recommend this property to fellow travellers.

Cape Woolamai

Lovely stay at a very spacious cabin. It had everything we needed - including a great outdoor space with a bbq and lawn for the boys to play football. Note that there is a benchtop mini oven but not a full oven or hobs but the bbq made up for this.

beautiful cottage and backyard 1mn away from walks and beaches

The cottage is very functional, in a quiete place. Cooking is to be done outside (barbecue + gas), beds are comfortable (even if we would have loved more blankets as it was winter time), and children loved to play in the garden which is at the back of the house (safe for young children). Cape Woolamai is such a beautiful place that we spent 3 days there, there are beautiful tracks with stunning views, long beaches, people surfing and fishing.

amazing property!! owner was so lovely and accommodating, we went during the winter time and were wondering if the heating situation would be ok but were more than ok with the 2 heaters which kept the whole house warm for our whole stay. the fire outside is also so nice, and the owners provided us with some wood and kindling! the property as a whole is so beautiful and we felt right at home. it is also in close distance to the beautiful cape woolamai beach as well as the wooli tavern pub! we will definitely be back! thank you so much!!!!!

A quiet getaway

Koala Cottage is a great small and functional house located in a quiet area very close to various beaches. The only challenge we had with our young kids were the beads on the door - way too appealing to small minds 😃 The garden is gorgeous, and the back yard is plenty big enough for kids to run and play. The decking is a lovely place to relax anytime of the day or evening. We would definitely look this one up again.
