What was originally meant to be a week stay turned into 2.5 weeks at The White Cottage partly due to an extension of plans and also Lockdown. It is such a lovely and comfortable stay and Donatella has been a amazing host. So friendly, flexible, helpful and accomodating.
What’s usually most important to me is peace and quiet and a comfortable bed. The bed is honestly the comfiest Airbnb bed I’ve slept in and top 5 mattresses I’ve slept in anywhere and I spend at least 60% of my year away even during Covid times. I didn’t even need to use the mattress topper I travel with.
The cottage although compact is extremely well kitted out and stylishly decorated. The outdoor area is such a delight with a daybed and swinging egg chair, gorgeous native plants and the sound of the ocean and birds soothing you. Although I didn’t use the bike it was thoughtful touches like this that I appreciated.
The location just a couple of houses down from the beach, down the street from grocery, pharmacy and restaurants was very convenient even though I had a car.
Communication was prompt, friendly and excellent. I can highly recommend this place as a convenient, peaceful, comfortable place to stay just a short few minutes from Byron bay. Thanks Donatella!
