After much research, we decided to stay at the Seaside Suite. And we have absolutely no regrets.
The place is immaculately clean, is very stylishly decorated and has everything you will need for your stay. It has amenities other Air BNB’s don’t have, like a washing machine, dishwasher, a big screen TVs in the lounge AND the bedroom, your own private courtyard with a full size Weber BBQ, 6 seater outdoor setting, a clothesline and so much more. We loved that every appliance in the home had the the instruction manuals kept neatly in a plastic bag in a drawer so that you could refer to them at anytime and a “welcome folder” with all the information you will need about the home or the area.
It’s a 1 minute walk to the beach from the house and a path that you can take a nice flat walk or bike ride on.
It’s a 5 minute drive to the main drag of Kingscliff, with restaurants, shops, the Kingscliff bowls club which has good food with ocean views and a 2 minute drive or an easy 10 minute walk to Salt Village, which has some shops and good restaurants. If you prefer to save money and make some meals at home, where you can use the BBQ, stovetop or convection microwave, you can stock up at Coles, a 2 minute drive. Also a good bakery and butcher at this shopping centre.
We also loved the beach at Cabarita Beach, about 7 minutes drive away. Even had a swim, even though it’s winter. Water was lovely after the initial shock. We think it’s probably as nice as Byron Bay, without the crowds and the pretentiousness.
Michelle is a lovely hostess. She was happy to give suggestions on places to go and was available if we needed anything but respected our privacy as well.
My husband is a 36 year employee of Qantas and we’ve travelled a lot, particularly in the US and especially Hawaii.
We haven’t booked a hotel room in years because we prefer the home away from home feel that these places give you and The Seaside Suite is up with the best.
It’s so reasonably priced that I thought it couldn’t possibly be that good but it really is. Far exceeded our expectations.
Thank yo Michelle
