Great place to stay by the sea

Fantastic property for spending some time at the sea. A short stroll to the beach, the lighthouse, or some nice local restaurants incl the fantastic A La Grecque. Property was comfortable and had everything we needed. Would have liked a coffee machine but no major issue as we generally bring a moka pot with us. The front of the property doesn't have a fence so if bringing a dog with selective hearing (like mine) you may need to tie them up when sat on the decking for your morning coffee. No internet connection but good mobile coverage and nice to disconnect anyway. Overall had a very enjoyable stay and would def come again

Dee takes much pride in her property and genuinely wants you to enjoy your stay and fall in love with the place. Walking distance to beach, shops and lighthouse. A great place to relax and unwind with plenty to do near by (if you want)! Highly recommended!

Fab seaside retreat

By the Sea is fantastically located, near all amenities and the beaches and the lagoon - a short walk to the lighthouse. The property has everything that you need to have a restful break, with a number of inside and outside convivial spaces. Would definitely book again

An amazing location & fantastic stay

We absolutely loved our stay here. It is in such an incredible location. The house was great! It had everything we needed. We had such a relaxing few nights away just exploring the area, our two year old loved the seeing the Rabbits in the front yard. We would definitely like to come back sometime in the future.

Fantastic communication with the owner, beach side of the highway so only a short walk to the beach, great fenced in area and lovely outdoor decking. Only negative was bed (a double, not a queen as advertised) which took a bit of getting used to (we have a queen at home) but overall we had a very nice weekend away with our dogs.

A peaceful spot

We love being at Aireys Inlet and certainly thoroughly enjoyed our first stay at " By the Sea"...hard to leave! Had all that we needed, very comfortable and welcoming for our family and our dog too. It's setting is peaceful, but handy too to the inlet and nearby beaches. Hope we'll be back before too long. Gwen and Family.
