Notes
Privacy: This property is a holiday rental, it is not a principal place of residence and there are no shared rooms. Enjoy your time in comfort and privacy.

Terms and Conditions: Detailed terms and conditions apply for this property and payment warrants your agreement and that of all other guests staying at the property with you. Please share the terms and conditions with your other guests.

Check-in and -out Times: During the busy months of December and January, the check-in time is 4 pm to facilitate peak back-to-back changeovers. Our standard check-in time is 3 pm and check-out time is 10 am. We offer a complimentary early check-in or late check-out time as a gesture of goodwill where booking and housekeeping schedules allow. Note that due to demand and housekeeping pressures, no early check-ins or late check-outs will be granted during the months of December and January. The safest way to secure an early check-in or later check-out is to book the property for an extra night. Contact us for a special rate for this extra night. All Sunday late check outs must be requested and approved prior to 5 pm on the Friday evening prior. All complimentary early check-ins or late check-outs must be confirmed in writing so that our housekeeping team are informed accordingly.

Guest Registration: Guest registration is mandatory for all bookings and replaces the need for a cash bond for short term bookings (up to 20 nights). It is essential for fraud prevention, damage claims, safety, and emergency purposes. The process varies depending on the online travel agent used. Direct bookings require the booker to upload a copy of their driver’s licence and credit card through our encrypted online process.

Additional Guests: The guest limits apply at all times during the booking. Any extra guests (this includes day visitors) above those that have been booked and paid for must be approved in writing prior to the stay. Only the guests staying at the property are permitted to be present. If you wish to have visitors in addition to booked guests, you must advise us in writing prior to your stay and ensure you receive written permission. This is not possible at all properties.

No Extras: This property is approved for accommodation only. No mattresses, tents, caravans or more cars than the property accommodates are allowed. Under no circumstances are the following activities permitted at any of our properties: motorbikes, dirt bikes, quad bikes, use of firearms or air rifles, fireworks.

EV Charging: For safety reasons and to comply with insurance requirements, guests are prohibited from charging electric vehicles at any property that does not have a dedicated EV charging station. Charging electric vehicles without proper infrastructure poses a fire hazard, and in the unfortunate event of an incident, insurance cover may be compromised, and the guest held liable. If in doubt, ask our team for the closest EV charging station.

Long Stay Discounts: Some of our properties are well suited to longer stays. For bookings of 30 nights or more, we may be able to offer a reduced rate compared to what’s advertised. Please feel free to get in touch with our team with your preferred dates, and we’ll be happy to look at the best available rate for you.

Property Information: Information during your stay can be found in the Guest Information Folder or by calling our office 24/7.

For medium-term bookings (21-40 nights) and long-term bookings (41-90 nights), a non-negotiable cash security deposit is required. This deposit is refunded after the departure inspection, with any damage or loss deducted. The minimum cash deposit is $2000, with higher amounts for larger or more expensive properties, or at the owner’s/manager’s discretion.

Peace of Mind: For your added security we will never request payments be made to an overseas bank account and your money is held by us and not disbursed until after your departure.

List with Us: Guest demand across our portfolio remains high, and quality properties continue to perform well. With exposure across all major booking platforms and hands‑on local management, we’re well placed to attract the right guests at the right rate. Speak with us to explore our tailored short‑term rental management options.

    I had stayed at Callala Bay before so I was already aware of the beautiful area to stay at but my family hadn't. So they got more than a pleasant surprise at what they found when they opened the blinds on the sliding doors at the back of the house. It was a very relaxing space with plenty of room for people to have space from others. Games, books internet so mny pluses- we even saw dolphins swim by. Our furbaby loved the leash free beach & huge backyard to explore in. Can't wait to come back again soon.

    Som WD 40 would have been useful, sliding door does need attention. The house is well fitted out. Maybe some fans in the bedroom s to save using the air con.

    Awesome location, decking area was beautiful, house itself a little smaller than appeared in photos but comfortable enough.

    Check in was easy and simple, when we arrived we were taken back by the amazing view! So close to the bay, and in walking distance to wonderful clean beaches. Such a beautiful location, with friendly locals and laid back coastal vibe. Everything was thought of and the property was clean, tidy and just so homely. I would definately go back, I feel we need to book for Summer! Only thing I would have loved (as we sadly had almost a week of rain) is an undercover area for the dogs to stay warm and dry when we headed out. The yard got a bit sloshy with so much rain - couldn't be helped. Dogs are allowed in the house however wouldn't want them unsupervised in an unfamiliar house for too long. Thanks for a lovely relaxing break.

    Location and outlook was good. For the money we payed though you would expect good quality beds and bedding but they weren't. Also there is no cover over the verandah, or between the house and the studio and as it rained for much of our stay, we got wet every time we were going between the two. We couldn't sit outside and enjoy the view either. Next time, I would stay a street or two back in a house with a covered verandah and save our money.

    We had a lovely stay at this property. Was well set up for our family with my two sons staying in the back cottage and the adults in the main cottage. Great location right by the water (you could spot dolphins from the balcony!) and walking distance to the shops. Well set up generally - couple of basic things missing (like rubbish bags!) but otherwise no complaints. Would stay there again.
