Your response is disappointing to hear as we usually receive very positive reviews and regularly have repeat bookings from people who enjoy Wonga Beach House and it’s very special location.

We love this house

Wonga Beach House is a wonderful place, we keep coming back and we always enjoy staying there. The house is ideal if you prefer a quiet and peaceful setting, but still close to everything. Communication with Louise is easy and prompt, never had any issues. Planning our next trip to Tathra already.

Relaxing getaway close to the beach and nature

We had a lovely relaxing stay at Wonga House. We enjoyed the location being so close to the beach and hearing the waves at night when sleeping. Hearing and seeing all the bird life and enjoying a drink out on the verandah. The house was very spacious for the 2 of us and had everything that we needed.

A lovely house in gorgeous setting

The house had an excellent feel and we loved being so close to the beach, and the wildlife. Very well equipped, and lovely to sit out and eat. The sleeping area between the bedrooms (4 single beds) was very open to all and had no blinds, the access to bathroom went through this space.

Low Key Beach Holiday….Exactly what was required

We loved our 4 night stay at Wonga. I especially loved that there is no WiFi, as our kids were more than happy to play board games rather than iPads. Listening to the ocean whilst enjoying an afternoon drink on the deck is heaven. Short walk down to the beach, definitely take the official beach path. Quick 5 min walk to the Wharf & Pub. Wonga Beachhouse is a great base to explore the Sapphire Coast.

How fantastic! We arrived at Wonga Beach House just after dark and when we got up the next morning we couldn't quite believe how fabulous the location was right on the beach! Beautiful views from a great house just right for our two families. Long breakfasts on the deck overlooking the beach were spectacular. We even managed a few swims on Saturday when the weather was warm. We had a terrific short stay and plan to make longer bookings in the future.Highly recommended.

Lovely girls weekend away

We stayed for 3 nights, we very much enjoyed the sunny deck which also has two shady sections. The lawn area is lovely with bbq. Cant beat the fire pit with the absolute best view of the beach. House was great, location great, very quiet, secluded and bushy with just the sounds of nature and the waves crashing. The only downside to mention about the property is you are right above the beach but the path to get to the beach is very difficult/dangerous, otherwise I would take my kids, we are all around 30yrs old and was not easy. We didn't go to the beach much as the track is too difficult, especially the hill at the bottom. Some reviews mention beach access but depends on what you call access. All in all perfect house for our weekend, thoughly enjoyed.

Hi Carlie, Glad you enjoyed your time at Wonga. We all use the walkway to access the beach which is accessed at the gateway to Wonga! The kids do love the old track though as presents a few challenges and is direct.... perhaps we need to do some repairs at the bottom. Thank you for your feed back Kind Regards Louise
