About this property
The Bungalow- Peaceful Hideaway Steps from the Sea
Summary:
Just a short stroll from the soft sands of Shelly Beach and Moffat Beach’s lively main street, this relaxed stay invites you to embrace easy coastal living. Wander the scenic walking tracks linking Shelly, Moffat and Kings Beaches, or linger at a café with ocean views. After a long day, retreat to your private deck where the glow of the outdoor fireplace sets the mood for cosy evenings under the palms. Inside, unwind in the open-plan studio with air conditioning—perfect for a seaside escape.
The Space:
Designed for simple comfort, this bright open-plan studio offers everything you need for relaxed beachside living just steps from Shelly Beach. Inside, the design is simple yet welcoming. High ceilings and large sliding doors fill the space with natural light, while soft neutral tones and timber details create a relaxed feel. The living area invites you to slow down—stretch out on the leather sofa, watch your favourite shows on the Smart TV, or open the doors to let the sea breeze flow through.
The kitchenette keeps things practical and stress-free, featuring a fridge, portable electric hot plate, kettle, toaster, microwave, coffee machine, and even a front-loading washing machine for added convenience. A small dining table for two sits nearby—perfect for easy breakfasts before heading out for a swim or coastal walk.
The plush king bed promises restful sleep, with air conditioning and a ceiling fan ensuring year-round comfort. A built-in wardrobe keeps things tidy, and a porta cot is available for those travelling with a little one. The ensuite bathroom features a glass shower, vanity, and toilet, with bi-fold doors opening directly onto the deck.
Step into your private deck and unwind on the shaded lounge surrounded by palms and greenery. Cook on the BBQ, pour a drink by the fireplace as the evening cools, and let the night settle in around you.

Leave the car parked and explore on foot—everything you need is close by. The beach is just a two-minute stroll from your stay, with coastal walking tracks, playgrounds and cafés within easy reach. Walk twelve minutes to Moffat Beach’s lively main street, home to great coffee, casual dining and a large seaside playground. Kings Beach is only 1.3 kilometres away, offering a patrolled surf beach, oceanfront pool, surf club and relaxed beachfront cafés.

We had a lovely stay, location was perfect for us, within walking distance to all our interests, and at night the peace and quiet to sleep early and well. The Bungalow had just what we needed for a short stay, our style, modern, clean and simple.
So lets start with getting into the property! No communication at all! Sooo I thought i was booking with Wotif but then Stayz appeared! Then Vrbo! then Welcome Ready! None communicated till we had to get in! All links, codes went nowhere or we were denied access to the property! Eventually we found a number! Now we get into the property... we have driven 2 hours, sat in traffic you know how it is! Lets have a cup of tea...there tea & coffee but NO milk... ever heard of Long Life milk! Ok now so you know this Bungalow is in the front of someones yard facing the street! Ok we fell for the misleading photo's...our fault! Lets move on to the "Firepit" this is out in the elements, no cover, a miserable bit of wet wood, half burned wood in pit, water in the bottom, NO kindling NO paper NO lighter! So No Fire! So lets watch some tv on Mini Me's lounge, Ok lets go to bed, so you know there is a frosted door between our "Bungalow" lol and main house, so you know the security lights all around the house stayed on all night..yes it was like we had a spaceship in the yard! I have never been so pissed off with a Holiday Let before! Moffat Beach btw is lovely just find somewhere else to stay as this even tho yes its clean it is overpriced and you will find something a lot nicer in the area!

Lovely spot and great setup, think for the price you pay though they could have provide a cheese or bbq platter as a welcome gift.
