About this property

Hidden Gem | Whales & Dolphins | Epic Location - KK71342

Hidden Gem is all about adventure, chill vibes and making memories. This cute, historic cottage has been freshened up but still keeps that classic bach feel. It’s got amazing views over the coastal marine reserve, and if you’re lucky, you might see dolphins playing or even a whale or two. It sleeps up to seven, so it’s great for family getaways or hanging out with friends.
