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!

About the host

Hosted by Jo & Marcus Hon

Host profile image
Marcus and Jo - we have two wonderful children. As a family we love to travel, visit the beach, fish, kayak, bike ride and enjoy the great outdoors.

You should come and stay in Erowal Bay and experience the beauty and magic of the area. It is the most beautiful place in the world!

We rent two properties located on the same block: The Palm Tree Cottage and SeaEsta.

We host our guests from afar, but are more than happy to provide information and tips on shopping/dining and sightseeing either over the phone/text or via email.

Why they chose this property

The sunsets are majestic!

What makes this property unique

Literally waters-edge! Feels like you are on a houseboat with the pristine water only 4 metres from the cottage.
