    Perfect location - a few minutes walk to Dutchman’s beach for sunsets and Bagnall’s Beach for dog beach play. Well equipped kitchen. Great cosy living space with reverse cycle air con, which heated up quickly on return after a day out in the wind.

    Location was ideal for families with young children, easy access to the quiet bay, great views from the lounge/dining, kitchen, master suite and the front deck, even spotted several dolphins swimming by, lovely sunsets down on the beach and it was a easy stroll into town and the marina. The beds were very comfortable, overall the house suited our needs.

    We really enjoyed our stay at Halifax for Australia Day long weekend. We stayed in the cabins which were clean, tidy and comfortable. We enjoyed having private beach access that was not busy. We bought our bikes with and were able to ride to the foreshore easily, a short walk to go Snorkeling at fly point which was good fun. We were really impressed with the corner cafe’s fish and chips.

    The room was spacious and clean, with everything we could need. Situated 1.5km from both Shoal Bay and Nelson Bay, meant that we didn't have far to go wherever we wanted to be. Not right on the beach, but not a long walk, and there is a pool for summer months. Room tidied every morning.
