Relaxing retreat week
I stayed at the cottage on my own for the week. A great location, around the corner from Jibbon Beach in a quieter part of Bundeena, a nice walk to the shops and RSL club. The cottage had everything I needed. The cottage caretaker was very responsive in handling a faulty kettle. I'd come and stay again.

Lovely short holiday
We stayed at Jackson Cottage for 3 nights and loved it. Close to the beach, close to Aldi and some restaurants, a short ferry to Cronulla, just a great location. Very good communication with PETA who was very hospitable. Recommend this home highly

Good location.
Great location, very quiet. Close to the beaches and shops. The parking space is big enough to fit a large SUV. Unfortunately both me and my wife found the bed to be very uncomfortable. The bed lacked support and was so sagged that we decided not to stay the final night. Some other minor inconveniences - such as the bathroom vanity mirror being to high up on the wall for us to properly use - were less of a hassle. With some small work the place could be a real gem, but we felt that it fell a bit short of 5 star review.

Hi Thomasz, I'm so sorry you found the bed uncomfortable, interestingly it has never been mentioned before. I apologise we couldn't get a new mattrass delivered, timely delivery is always a bit of a challenge when you're located in a National Park, particularly just before Christmas. Thanks for letting me know about the mirror being too high in the bathroom. I'll address it and add a long length mirror to the living area which should resolve the issue. Best wishes, Peta Best wishes, Peta

Disliked: Cleanliness
major disappointment
On arrival at the property the door locks could not be opened. Could not contact owner/host. Turns out she was overseas and left no one else to help out. Evidently we had been given the wrong codes. We contacted Stayz and they did not know the new lock codes and so booked us alternative accommodation in Cronulla (as there was nothing else available in Bundeena). We did receive full refund from owner but the stay in Cronulla could not offer us the peaceful beach setting we had been looking forward to in Bundeena. A most unsatisfactory experience.
Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023
Response from VrboOwner on 12 Sept 2023
I would be disappointed as well Judith so appreciate your review. It’s the first time it’s ever happened in 20 years of holiday letting. Unfortunately my cleaner was away at the same time and I was flying into a different time zone. As response to your feedback I’m adding 2 extra phone numbers in case this problem ever arises again. Once again I apologise. I’ve refunded all funds and fees. Peta

Hi George, Thank you for the feedback re the bed. It has not been mentioned to me before. I will purchase a firm memory foam topper which should make the bed firmer. Peta

My wife and I came to Bundeena to do some walks in the royal national park. The cabin location is perfect and it has everything you need. The only thing that didn’t work was the wifi, but we didn’t really need it anyways with so many gorgeous walks all around. Great stay super clean, tidy and neat. Definitely would come back. Thank you very much! 5 stars ;)
