Family Friendly Beach House-Ideal for teenagers We have stayed here many times over the past few years with another family. The host(Jo) is a great communicator and very accommodating of our needs. The house is clean and ideal for families with all the thoughtful extras included such as tea and coffee, condiments in pantry and a herb garden. The house is great for families with teenagers due to the games room, which has a pool table, darts board, table tennis table, board games and a tv which keeps the kids busy. The house is a short walk from the beach. We will definitely be back!
We had a wonderful 7 night stay. Amazingly stocked kitchen with all the spices, oil, condiments, Glad Wrap etc that you could need. We loved the games room and the 2 outdoor seating spaces. Perfect for our 2 families. Would 100% recommend and stay again!
Brilliant house to rent - great location, facilities and host
Second time staying at the house and it didn’t let us down. Great for a couple of families and the games room was a highlight bringing everyone together. Thanks Jo for again providing a great house and we will definitely look to hire this again.
Had a wonderful time, great place and great location. Ideal for families, everything you would need (and more) was in the house. Jo was wonderful to deal with, very welcoming :)
Kids are already asking when will we be back. Thank you so much!
The property is loverly. Extremely clean and comfy. Our son loved the books and games room, the property has great accessibility (my partners nan is 99 and got around all parts of the property easily) foxtel, billiards, ping pong, lego, current books and magazines, outdoor dining area that is heated. The place is excellent and i highly recommend.
The Perfect Beach House For A Weekend With Friends
We book this wonderful house each year for a weekend break with our family and friends. Jo is an amazing host, who pays attention to detail and does everything possible to ensure you have a wonderful and comfortable trip away with everything you need. The absolute highlight of this house is the games room as it is a fantastic space for teenagers to unwind and play pool, table tennis or darts. We will be back again in 2026!
Property was very well equipped and layed out. Whole place was very clean. The games room was fantastic with great entertainment for our 7mth old, 3yr old and 5yr old.
Adults were very happy with the magazines and options for outside or inside leisuring.
The pod coffee maching was great for this tired mum of three.
Our family has stayed at this well appointed home three times now and we absolutely love this house. The location is brilliant for beach walks and it’s only a short drive into Sorrento. The highlight of this house is the fantastic games room which keeps teenagers and young adults entertained. Jo has set this house up thoughtfully for her guests and has added little details to make the house feel like home. It is a perfect holiday house for two families, especially families with older teenagers or young adult children. We will be returning again next year!
A perfect house to accomodate our 2 families. Our second time here and we absolutely love it! Jo provides all that is required to make you feel like you’re at home. Our teen children enjoyed the games room as did the adults!The kitchen is fully equipped so you can cook a meal for many or check out the takeout menus provided for those lazy days. Easy walking distance to Koonya beach and a short car trip to the Sorrento Main Street, Back Beach Bliss is truly a home away from home. We’ll be back! Thanks again Jo.
Jo is a fabulous host! the property was impeccably maintained. We were in town for a family event and it suited our purpose perfectly. Plenty of room for a family to stretch out yet close to everywhere you want to be and everything you want do. The space both inside and out provides ample opportunity and much room for the family to get together and have fun. Jo provides everything you need for a comfortable stay. From requisite condiments necessary for cooking and accessories the shower and bathroom. There really isn't any item that Jo hasn't thought about to make your stay the best that it can be. I would highly recommend for any family that wants to make their stay in Sorrento a memorable experience. Bravo Jo!
Thank you for an amazing stay.
I’ve booked a lot of holiday homes and yours was the best!
All of the extra touches were so appreciated, we all had the best time and couldn’t believe that everything we could possibly want or need was supplied.
Thank you for having us and for the delicious arrival gifts.
We will be back!

We had an amazing time at this holiday house. Everything was nice and clean. The kitchen has everything you need, way more than what we expected. The games room is the absolute best to entertain everyone. We all fell in love with this house , will definitely come back and recommend to friends and family. Jo, the host, is amazing. She is very friendly and replies to messages very quickly and tries to accommodate you at her best ability. She even had a monitor/camera and night lights for the little ones. Just incredible! Thank you so much Jo!
"Simply the BEST!" is how I would describe Back Beach Bliss with regard to cleanliness, facilities and value for money. Our family of 9, (6 adults, 3 teens) were blown away. Two full bathrooms, 3 toilets and a Games Room with every possible entertainment you could wish for. All rooms tastefully decorated. Fabulous appliances. Plenty of space to escape. Five minute walk to the back beach and we were able to hear the waves at night, which was beautiful :) It was an easy 1/2 hour walk to the main strip for Mother's Day breakfast and we walked the long way home along the beach. Jo, our Hostess was a delight to deal with and a welcome bottle of bubbles was much appreciated! My only regret is that I had to leave and return to real life! I will be back though......planning a girl's weekend already! Love, love, love Back Beach Bliss <3 <3 <3
Fantastic house great location, clean great for a group
This house was fantastic loved the beachy feel.
Comfy beds, well equipped, clean spacious the crew really enjoyed their stay. Best house so far was their rating.
Will difantly be back...
Our family enjoyed a lovely relaxing week staying at Back Beach Bliss. The house provided everything we needed with plenty of living space to accommodate 8 of us. The games room is an added bonus on cooler days. We couldn’t believe how well the kitchen had been stocked and really appreciated all Jo did for us as a host. Jo sure is a wonderful host and we are planning on returning next year.
This was our second stay and once again the property suited our 3 families brilliantly. The house is comfortable, well equipped and the games room is a great escape for the kids! We'll be back!
