Summary of reviewsStunning sea views, great location, and good communication with the owner. Spacious property with everything needed for a comfortable stay.
8 / 10Excellent·Apr 2025
Fabulous spot right on the lovely Ruby Bay shore. We stayed for 5 days and very much enjoyed the personality and quirks of this place. Great kitchen and living areas walking right out onto decks with perfect views of Tasman Bay. Lovey breeze so no mosquitos, incredible mornings and evenings from the kitchen window. Things to know: You are clearly staying in the owners full time place, so its not a sterile hotel room. There are personal items surrounding you- and the place is obviously used. The bedrooms are on the road side of the place - so there's a bit of car noise , was not a problem for us and every place down the stretch will be the same. There are ants- We were warned about this from the owner- we weren't bothered by them and kept the kitchen clean as not to attract more. But its a thing so better to be aware of it. We really enjoyed the spot - And the owners were easy and pleasant to deal with .

For us this was a great location and space, so much to do in the surrounding area.
Currently the property is under repair but did not impact on our stay.
Bonus was the Kayaks to use.
