Very comfortable and clean. Neatly set out surfer themed cottage opposite the beach. Modern bathroom. Dog friendly, which our little pooch enjoyed with no signs of the smells of previous pets. Very quiet at night with the main bedroom at the rear of the home. Having WiFi available was appreciated. Short walk down to the beach, cafe and restaurant.
We loved the original beachshack vibe plus all the mod cons and good quality extras.It was a great spot to be able to just cross the road and walk to a dog friendly beach .We would definitely recommend it and look forward to staying again .
We stay here a couple of times a year to catch up with old mates, have a surf and generally chill out. It really suits our needs. Close to beach, cafes, club and has a laid back beach house vibe with everything you need for a few days away. We enjoy it.
Nostalgic decor, very clean, modern well equipped kitchen and bathrooms. This was perfect accomodation for us while our son competed in a sports tournament. It had all that we needed - a short but pleasant stay.
The property was well situated and great for the family of 5. There were a few hurdles gaining access and confusion about our booking which caused a delay in checking in. This was however rectified relatively quickly by the property manager. The house is well appointed and comfortable. A bit of TLC and the place could be a cracker. This has already been covered in other reviews regarding lights, doors and cleanliness. However, would stay again as these were only minor inconveniences, the positives well outweighed the hurdles.
Was part of group playing walking basketball at Niagara Park. Came north the day before and a couple of players stayed them played. Chance for swims and a nice meal at the Entrance before they headed home. Family tagged in the next day with the grand dog. Great spot for us all, dog beach at north Shelley, cafe at surf club.. really great few days away.
Perfect location, updated bathroom and kitchen, however property needs repairs screen doors don't lock/close so felt unsafe and no a/c and couldn't keep doors open at night, very hot and affected everyones sleep. The fans and lights in the bedrooms have a strange remote control so when one is turned on the lights or fans come on in other bedrooms - disrupted everyone's sleep. The couch is falling apart as is the outdoor furniture, which is unusable. The outside bin was missing its lid creating a haven for flies and other issues which seem easily repairable. If you are looking for comfort look elsewhere the bedrooms have a
So happy with our stay at Shelly Beach. The ease of being able to walk out the door with your beach bag and be on the sand in mere minutes is so relaxing. Shelly Beach is so beautiful,tranquil and has the added safety of being a Surf Lifesaving patrolled beach. Shelly Beach House was neat and tidy and well equipped for a comfortable stay. Shops and takeaways are very close and convenient, and if you can't tear yourself away there are plenty of restaurants that deliver. The only negative was that we eventually had to leave hahaha. Thank you to our host for sharing this beautiful seaside house with us. We will definitely be back!
Excellent location for a holiday with our dog. It was an easy walk to the dog beach and surf club cafe. House was clean and comfortable if a bit dated.
Perfect location with roomy, entertaining, front deck overlooking nature. A short stroll to coffee shops and to the patrolled Shelly Beach. Perfect getaway stay for family and dog
Thank you so much Michael. 5 min walk from great coffee shop (dog friendly), 1min walk to regular beach, less than 10min walk to off-leash dog beach. Great little enclosed backyard for our dog. It was just me, my partner and my dog. However this house is so well equipped for a family to stay. Big fridge, great sized kitchen. Big family table out the front, out the back and inside. Big comfy couch. It has beach shack vibes. Board games. Big tv. We enjoyed our little getaway.
Good location and good communication with property manager. Older accommodation. Creaky floorboards which usually wouldnât be an issue but can be if you have a baby. Needed to manually close the blinds because the turning rod was broken. The light in the room also turned on randomly at night in the front room. Bed in front room, not fixed to the wall and moves. The fans are great as there is no air con. Needs several updates. Dated accom, but location is good.
Terrific location, close to beach, shops and cafes
We had a fantastic stay at Shelly Beach House. The location is unbeatable, close to everything you need. We travelled as two families with two toddlers and two dogs. Ceiling fans in every room to keep cool in this warm weather.
The location of the house is fantastic but the house itself feels very neglected. The electrical wiring is such that if you turn on the light in any bedroom the lights in all the other bedrooms also come on - which of a night with sleeping kids wasnât ideal. The house is advertised as accommodating up to 6 people and yet there were only 2 bowls in the kitchen. The house did not feel overly clean and walking on the floor barefoot left us with black feet. The house just feels run down. The location is the best thing about the property.
