Lovely short stay in beautiful Sawtell

Very peaceful, cozy property right on the tidal creek where we could watch the birdlife as stingrays lazily swam upstream. Very cool and comfortable stay, and a short walk from all that main street offers - funky boutiques, range of restaurants, and a laidback coffee culture - we will be back for sure, thank you!

Hidden gem

A lovely little apartment in the perfect position tucked away next to the creek with sea views and a fresh breeze. Lovely touches including breakfast cereal, fruit and fresh bread. Just a stroll to Main Street and a walk thru path to the beach. Wish we stayed longer.

We can't say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay here. The accomodations were wonderful. Bed and bedding was luxurious. Very quite with great views of a creek entering an ocean bay as well as the ocean itself. Easy walk to a park and Bonville Head lookout in one direction and downtown Sawtell in the other.The owner, Leonie, was very friendly and accomodating. Our only problem will be every other place we stay while visiting Austrailia will have to be compared to this one. Leonie set the bar really high!!

This was a great apartment. It is beautifully furnished and had a view of the ocean and nearby Bonville Creek from the bedroom and front verandah that makes it exceptional. Leonie paid attention to detail, making sure that we felt looked after. We appreciated the bowl of fruit and the chocolates for instance. We really enjoyed our stay. We would love to come back sometime for longer.
View late afternoon from the verandah.

Five Star break

A trip down memory lane for us, now in our senior years. Sunny Sawtell has been our family Christmas holiday choice for the past almost fifty years. Because of ill health last year we had to cancel our planned trip, but thankfully were able to rebook our beautiful Creekside accommodation.Our host was superb. Absolutely everything was perfect (even the rain stopped) and nothing in the care and attention we received was overlooked.The studio was meticulously clean, a daily light breakfast was very welcoming and a lovely private location, with views along the creek to the ocean and the sounds of distant waves.We would recommend highly.

Superb in every way

All the 10/10 reviews were spot on! This property is everything you need for a comfortable private relaxed holiday. Leonie the manager was helpful and friendly and left us in peace after our arrival. Location was perfectly situated by the creek and very private. Walking distance to the inlet and town centre with plenty of cafes and restaurants to choose from. The unit was exceptionally clean and very well appointed. The attention to detail and little welcoming touches like breakfast with fresh fruit, bread and butter were a special touch. We had a thoroughly enjoyable 2 night stay and will definitely book a longer stay next time. Great value. Thank you Leonie

Perfect Location

The unit is in a perfect location being positioned beside a creek with bush and ocean views. It is only a 5 min walk into Sawtell which has quality cafes and restaurants. We stayed in October so the weather wasn't warm enough for the beach, but there are plenty of walks and exploring to do. Leonie is the perfect host who supplied lots of goodies when we arrived. I loved the Aveda bathroom products. We will definitely be coming back to stay.

Just Perfect!

This is a perfect place for a relaxing getaway. Accomodation was spacious and light with views right out to the ocean. Bed was extremely comfortable. In fact I haven’t slept so well in a long time! The host was very friendly and welcoming. Breakfast provisions were really generous and lovely quality. All the little extra touches that make this place a very special place to stay.

Creekside was the ideal spot for a weekend stay. Right beside the creek and views to the ocean. Despite the rain, we enjoyed the very comfortable accommodation with all the amenities we required.

Wake up to an excellent view in a beautiful waterfront location.

We were met by the lovely Leonie who introduced us to the property. Bread and an assortment of fruit and condiments were graciously provided. Leonie also went out of her way to provide gluten-free cereal and bread for the coeliac in the family. The property was spotless, the bathroom was generous, and towels were changed every couple of days. We cannot recommend this property more highly for both its location and comfort.

Hidden Gem

We were so pleasantly surprised on our arrival at Creekside. A gorgeous location, close to the beach & a short walk to town. Creekside offers clean, comfortable & generous accommodation for two, with a view, and Leonie provided little extras like fruit, yoghurt & sourdough on arrival. Will definitely stay again
