Excellent location
The apartment was in an excellent location, across from beach and walking distance to shops and restaurants. It was really well equipped, clean and comfy beds. The only downside was the bedrooms did get a bit hot at night as only freestanding fans, no aircon or ceiling fans. Still loved Kiama and would visit again.

Good Morning Paige! We are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Bathers at the Beach. The property is definitely in a wonderful location in great proximity to the Kiama township. We are glad that you found the home well equipped for your needs throughout your stay! Regarding the warmth of the property at night, should you had needed additional fans if you contacted us directly we would have dropped more to the property for you! We hope to host you again soon!

Clean, new but not ventilated
The accommodation was clean, well serviced and stocked. Beds were very comfortable. We've stayed at a few holiday apartments and this one was very impressive. However, it was very difficult to sleep during our stay. The 2 rear bedrooms had little to no fresh air/air flow and the fans had little impact. 2 Cheaper stand alone fans per bedroom would have been better. The main bedroom door had to stay closed, otherwise we'd be woken up by early traffic on the main road outside.

Great short stay, good location
We enjoyed a short stay with friends. The apartment is well furnished with all you could need in the kitchen, including a small area for leftover cooking oil, salt pepper from previous guests ( the kind of stuff you need buy dont want to buy for just 3 days). Fabulous location across from park and beach

Classy apartment
We were lucky to find this apartment at short notice. Direction for garaging and access from garage to unit (eg lift number) could be clearer. Although there was some unavoidable noise from the street the great unit with excellent furnishings made up for any distraction from traffic.

Clean ,modern apartment. Right on the beach. Getting the key was tricky .The building was not clearly marked so we spent a lot of time driving around searching for it. Finding the garbage area was hard too.

Great apartment and central location
Very well set up with kitchen utensils, cooking equipment etc.Door to middle bedroom sometimes very difficult to open. Only 2 rolls of toilet paper for the 6 people and 3 nights! Very comfortable seats in lounge area. Lovely water views of the surf beach. Blinds in the lounge and bedroom have lost the pole to adjust the horizontal shutters. Needed a chair to reach up and turn the bedroom ones so we could block out the street lights. One set of keys is not adequate for 3 bedroom apartment. Carpets were not vacuumed adequately. Overall a great apartment and very comfortable stay.

Helpful property managers and team
Property was beautiful and perfect for a relaxing getaway. There was a mixup with cleaning when we arrived due to previous tenants but the property managers and cleaning team responded so quickly to get the place sparkling- on a Sunday night too! Really impressed at their helpfulness and quick response.
