An absolutely amazing home to stay in. Lots of extras such as a PlayStation, puzzles and games. Excellent kitchen. Super easy walk to Collingwood beach. And about 25 min walk to Huskisson. Belle escapes were responsive and helpful whenever we had a question.

The code was easy to use and double door makes you feel safe.

We recently celebrated a 50th birthday with our adult children and grandkids, and this property was nothing short of fabulous! Perfectly positioned across the road from a stunning beach, it gave us the best of both worlds — easy morning strolls for coffee lovers and prime viewing spots for daily sightings of whales. The house struck a beautiful balance between luxury and practicality making it ideal for our three-generations. We have already planned our next stay!

We were very happy with the accommodation. It was clean, tidy and spacious. It was also in a great location. We highly recommend staying here. Antje was a great host.  
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!
Check in was super easy, very clear instructions which made check in after a long drive refreshing! Super lovely and accommodating, property was stunning! Will be coming back!
Fantastic host in a perfect location. The apartment had everything that was needed. Communication from the host was great.  
Good value for money, great location Positive: Cannot beat the location. Just two doors up from the Coolum Surf Club and all of the shops. It's an older apartment with a plenty of room for two people, a very wel stocked kitchen, very comfy beds, air con and heating, great WiFi, very good smart TV, free parking spot on site, washer/dryer. Very nice arrival packet and gift cards. We have twice stayed there. Big frige, good kitchen. Love that there's a toilet and shower on the ground floor, especially handy when returning from the beach. This is in addition to a full bathroom upstairs. Lots of amneities and beach accessories. The furniture on the the balcony is very comfy. Negative: The only thing the flat needs is new furniture on in the downstairs. Part of the couch is worn down and the dining set is uncomfortable. That said, if you're out a lot or if it's a shorter stay you won't care. The downstairs lighting also could use an update.

Stayed here for a girls’ weekend and it was everything we hoped for. Big kitchen, comfy beds, and the balcony was our favourite spot. Loved every minute!

Walking to the beach and enjoying the deck in the evenings were highlights. Thank you for a great family stay.

Beautiful location, close to the beach and not far away from the little town. House could use a deep clean and some new fresh bedding, kitchen utensils etc. Overall ok, I understand school holiday pricing is a bit higher than usual so our expectations were probably too high for what we got
