Our stay was most enjoyable, the location was great close to shops and the beach. The cabin was clean and well presented inside, probably needs a bit of a tidy up outside.Overall we enjoyed ourselves.

Nice weekend at JayBees

We had a nice family stay at JayBees. The house had all the facilities we needed, and the location is good: walking distance to the beach and easy access to town centre. It's a nice quiet area too. The host was very accommodating and let us have a late checkout on Sunday. Thanks for a great stay!

ClSsic shack feel

This place has all you need. An easy 5 min walk to the beah and a short drive to shops. Its pretty original..incliding a cute 50s bathroom! So not for someone wanting a super modern place but great if you like bit of character.

A nice surprise.

JayBees was a comfortable and spacious home with lots of windows to maximise the front yard aspect. The venue was clean and provided all the kitchen appliances you might need. The owner was very helpful and responsive and check-in was easy. JayBees represents excellent value and is on our list for a revisit.

Quiet retreat, with character

A charming living area - loved all the wood tones and comfy couches. Beds comfortable and kitchen equipped with the main essentials. No need for the wood fire during a heat wave but this would make it very cosy in winter. Perfect weather for beach swims so we appreciated being so close to the beach. Host was very helpful when we couldn’t figure out how to reset the oven. Overall a lovely stay in a quiet street. It was great to find a classic retro style holiday house that’s not exorbitantly priced.

Cozy beach shack

Loved the cozy living/dining area with all the timber features. Heating worked well throughout the house. The bathroom needs updating, is very old and main mirror is so low you can only see from chest down. Outside garden needs a good tidy up, lots of unsafe debri around which would cause a concern for snakes in summer. Front yard would be nice to sit in if it was tidy.

I made sure there was sufficient fire wood split and dry, but noticed you did not make use of it. A lot of guests enjoy the atmosphere of a real wood fire. Sadly, you may not have recognized the wood supply which you mistook for debri. I have not seen a snake at our property once in the over 40 years of owning the property or heard of snakes from any of the neighbours.
