We enjoyed the location - having lovely views out into the bushland; great facilities for sitting/eating outside in a space protected from weather; and a private jacuzzi. Walks along St. Andrews beach are close by, but if you want to swim you will need to drive 15-20 min. to one of the bay beaches.Everything we needed was provided, as we didnât intent to cook meals.
Much needed weekend escape, perfect location to use as a central base for the Hot Springs and day trips to Rosebud/Rye/Sorrento.
Spa very secluded and private and close to apartment; I was worried it would be a hike from the accommodation but itâs very close.
Access is up a steep hill, be mindful if you have mobility issues.
Beautiful accommodation. We relaxed as soon as we opened the door. Surrounded by nature. The beach a stoneâs throw awayâŠwell a nice walk to the beach. The jacuzzi was heated and ready to go. So relaxing. We laughed and enjoyed every minute.
