Silver Sands Beach & Nature
An incredibly beautiful place, felt right at home and so much space. An extremely short walk and you’re on the beach, doesn’t get much better! Margo was flexible to make my visit fit in which I really appreciated, she was proactive to message about check-in and the place itself had everything I could’ve needed ☺️ absolutely loved my stay!

Ocean view at Beach front Port Noarlunga
Our stay at this property was amazing. Such a beautiful part of the SA Coast and quiet and relaxing for the family. The views from the main bedroom and lounge of the water and beach were a feature! Couldn’t recommend highly enough!

Luxury 3BR Beachfront Home | Walk Everywhere
Petlet were wonderful. I received messages and phone calls just to see if we arrived safely and checked in okay. The house was right in the middle of Victor Harbor, so close to everything we walked every where. Opening the curtains and seeing the beach every morning was just beautiful to wake up to. It was also great to have our furbaby with us, the yards were closed in nicely, he could come and go as he pleased and we didn't have to worry. Thank you Petlet, highly recommended, we will definitely book again 🥰

Sunset Apartment
Only at Marianne's for 2 nights. Was perfect for what we needed. It is on the lower floor of a 2 storey home. Mariannes instructions on how to get there and what to do with lockbox, parking was spot on. Shower had great pressure, wifi easy to access. Didn't use pillows as we take our own. Easy walk to beach with stairs to go down. Close to restaurants and supermarkets. When you are there go to Pitstop Italian Truck up the road. Delicious pasta. Loved that just up the road we could drive our car onto the beach. Only issue I had, and it's my problem not Mariannes was that I unlocked the windows to open them, love fresh air, and when I went to lock them again I found it a bit tricky to do. Lucky I have a handy husband and he worked it out. Also the fridge is in the lounge, not that that's an issue but found that a strange. Overall, great experience, would stay again.

Cosy home with tennis court, WIFI and Netflix
An absolutely amazing house exactly as photographed and described. It's clean and spacious with everything we needed to relax and enjoy ourselves. Perfect for our large family. Skye is a wonderful host, prompt, friendly and very helpful every step of the way.

Family and pet-friendly home
Excellent stay - very clean and tidy, close to the beach, shops, cafes. Laura was extremely helpful and responsive with any questions asked. Would not hesitate to come back!

Retro Shack
Fabulous, basic retro beach house across the road from spectacular beach! Great options to eat both within walking distance or just a few minutes drive. Handy place to explore McLaren Vale wineries.

Private beach getaway! Pets welcome, large yard.
Staying at Brett's seaside home was an absolute pleasure for my family and I. Perfectly located less than a five minute easy stroll from Boomer Beach, this perfect pocket rocket of a home had everything we needed and more. Large and secure garden for our curious dog, plenty of outdoor space for a quiet read and glass of red, comfortable living room and bedrooms for relaxing and a good night's sleep and a kitchen that delivers the goods. Quiet, private and secluded we all felt safe and sound and connected to the sounds of the rolling ocean just metres away. As a host Brett was outstanding a gracious, from the bottle of local red to the extra long checkout he allowed, our Easter was really very special.

Lovely area, lots for the kids to do and safe. Close to the beach and a lovely walk along the beach to the Life Saving Club. House was nice but provisions in the kitchen very basic. We had a lovely weekend.

Experience a Waterfront Beach Retreat,Pet Friendly
beautiful vacation house with a breathtaking backyard view. You could easily have meals at backyard while day-dreaming overlooking the pelicans at the deck or inside the house. the kitchen is also very complete, including 2 coffee makers, breville coffee machine and pods, soda stream, nutriibullet, cooking equipments, baking equipments etc etc. not to mention all the herbs, sauces and condiments, almost all are all provided. my nephew was very fond with playing pingpong and basket ball, he spent most of the time playing those two games. my husband n bro in law enjoyed bbq and cooking while we were there. cooking at the long pantry with a view was dreamy! Sam & Trent also provided us a welcome basket and a tiny basket of dog treats, dog bags, and wipes for our yorkshire too. well thought out, amazing service throughout. we appreciate they checking up on us on the second day, asking if we need anything else, they were just a message away. all the best. frederika

Denise's place was perfectly located and easy walking distance for what we wanted to do in Victor Harbor (Granite Island and the Cockle Train). In addition, the view from the living space and main bedroom to both Granite Island and the Bluff were superb. It's a neat, tidy space, plenty of room for our family of 4. Had everything we needed for a couple of nights getaway. Thanks Denise
