Beautiful house with amazing views. Very relaxing and close to the centre of Coolum. We saw lots of whales from the deck. Quite a steep climb to the house - something to be aware of if planning to walk to the beach/restaurants

Great place to stay out of the hustle and bustle but still close to the snow in Thredbo and Perisher/ Guthega. Plenty of places to walk in the bush surrounding, abundant bird and wildlife to photograph. Stunning views of the snowy mountain tops. Perfect comfortable accommodation to relax and get away from it all.

We had a wonderful three nights in this fabulous accommodation, with four generations of our family. Everything about the house was perfect. Would highly recommend , & the location was great also.

The palace is just as the name suggests- a true palace. The house and location are spectacular. The hosts are responsive to questions as well. The layout is great for a large group or family as all the rooms are private with their own bathroom. The common area is also amazing with a large central kitchen for making fun group meals and two sizable separate sitting areas. The decorating is over the top in a very special and unique way with every detail thought of to help you escape and appreciate the local culture. We were blown away!
Absolutely beautiful!

The only regret we have from our stay was that it simply wasn’t long enough. This is a beautiful home managed exceptionally well by the team at Belle. A fantastic family escape that we’ll definitely be heading back to

We had 11 of us stay this past weekend. Wow, when you walk in the door! Spotlessly clean, modern and spacious! What a wonderful place to stay and value for money. Will definitely book this house again!

A welcoming stay that easily accommodated for 16 guests across 3 of the suites! Beautiful views, quiet and comfortable, everything you could need. Hosts were friendly, and very understanding when I had additional m queries. Would recommend!

Erin's home is beautiful my family love it really felt like home plenty things to do in the house game boards etc... Weather is cold but the kids love to have a dip in the beautiful pool. Thank you Erin for everything helping us with our late check in. We will definitely be back again next time we here

We had a great stay in a beautiful resort
Enjoyable stay, amazing mountain views, would stay. comfortable apartment with all the amenities. Well stocked kitchen and appliances. Having washer and dryer convenient. Many steps up and down each day but got easier each time. Friendly helpful staff

Kitchen was a great size for a studio. Efficient drying cupboard for very wet ski gear. Super warm with everything we needed for a few days of Spring skiing. Easy to drop-off gear at property & usual village parking. Comms with property management was smooth. Appreciated the complementary vouchers. Negative: Unfortunately, this apt didn’t have external storage for snowboards only skis. Adjacent apt had simple chain/lock rack at their door - could consider installing similar.

Everything perfect for our stay. A well managed and maintained property. Very clean, with all amenities that you will need for your stay. Everything worked as expected. Loved the spa bath, drying room and laundry. Location across from Friday Flat suited our group very well with ski school and adult group lessons. A nice walk of 500m to the restaurants and shops in the village. Or go across the road to The River Inn. Checkin and departure information was great. We had a great time!

Was a beautiful location. We already booked our next stay as soon as we wakes in the door. Very private despite where it is, was perfect

A designer home in the heart of Byron. It doesn’t get much better. The layout was perfect for our family of six, and the kids loved the pool. Erin was a standout host who made everything easy and personal. Highly recommend.

We needed a big place to accommodate 4 families, and Famagusta delivered! Heaps of spaces for kids to hang out, big kitchen, and no cars or roads to cross to hit the beach. Close to local shops and a short trip to other great spots (Hyams Beach and Huskisson). It’s on a main road but we would never have known, given the orientation of the house
Dale S - 2/10/25 — Famagusta
Highest praise I can give is the fact that we've already re-booked for 2024! The house had everything we needed. Decent sized pool (which got both sun and shade at various times of day). You could easily live downstairs and outside all day (always good to have a downstairs bathroom), and only venture upstairs at bedtime. And easy walk to the off-leash section of the beach (not to mention a great cafe, and shops)!
