A homely and relaxing space, close to the beach, cafes etc. Road noise at times so perhaps not ideal for light sleepers but the proximity to the esplanade and the pool at the front door, made up for it. Well equipped kitchen and facilities, board games and bikes all added fun and good times to our stay.

Our family stayed here over New Year’s and absolutely loved it. The location is fantastic — right across the road from the beach, which made it so easy to go swimming and fishing whenever we liked.The kids were obsessed with the pool, and most of the time we had it completely to ourselves. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and perfect for our stay.A big bonus was the bikes available to use — my husband and our eldest had a great time exploring on them.We had such a wonderful stay and would definitely come back again

Paradise on earth !

Absolutely amazing !! Just a short stroll to the beach and what a view !! The property was spotless ! Loved the deco and the vibe throughout. Jesse, my son loved the board games and the pool. Such a fantastic walk, soaking up nature and the people there are just so friendly. I would love to live there. Plenty of restaurants to choose from and great entertainment too ! Little slice of heaven.

My family and I had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful unit right opposite the bay and it exceeded all of my expectations. The house was immaculately clean and well-appointed with all the amenities you could need for a comfortable stay. The location is unbeatable, with views of the bay and easy access to the beach. The pool was also a highlight and perfect for enjoying the warm evenings. The host was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout the entire process.

Sunnynook stay.

Great location and very comfortable and nicely decorated unit. Really appreciated all the extras that were provided. Would certainly be interested in staying there again. The lights above the bed in the back room did not work. The only inconvenience was having to park on the street and the rude neighbour who chastised us for unloading a heavy esky and bicycles from our vehicle which probably took 5-10 minutes. We had no intention of parking there but thought it reasonable to at least unload there. Having said that would be happy to stay there again.

About the host

Hosted by Sally and Michael

Host profile image

We enjoy the outdoors and keeping fit and are interested in traveling, eating out and discovering new cafes, art, film and community social work. When we have time spare, we love nothing more than being in Hervey Bay with our SUPs and spending time on the water.

Why they chose this property

We accidently discovered our piece of paradise on a road trip and found that we wanted more of what Hervey Bay has to offer. We love the laid-back vibe of this coastal town that time slows down. A typical day for us would be to wake early and stroll across to the water for a wake-up swim followed by coffee at our favorite cafe The Spotted Goat. The rest of the day is spent exploring either on the bikes or taking a walk along the boardwalk. There's plenty of restaurants and cafes so close for your choice of meals.

What makes this property unique

- Around the corner from the best coffee shop in Hervey Bay is The Spotted Goat
- Straight across the road is the beautiful Shelly Beach
- One block up from an amazing selection of restaurants and cafes
- A short stroll or bike ride to the famous Urangan Pier
- Local Woolworths and Coles less than a 5 minutes drive away
- No need for a car as bus stop is near-by and everything is within walking/riding distance
- We supply 2x bikes with helmets
