Vacation rentals with a kayak in Australasia

Wendy's place was truly beyond our expectations. I booked Wendy's place to celebrate my birthday with my husband and our daughter, i was looking for a peaceful place to spend my birthday weekend with my family. And all my wish come true. Wendy's place is so peaceful with beautiful view of the lake. On the first morning we were so lucky to see hundreds birds flying low on the lake, it was so magical. Wendy also goes up and beyond about my birthday, she spoiled me with some chocolates and a bottle of wine, what a lovely gesture, thank you so much Wendy! There's so much to do in Wendy's place, we loved the native garden, we picked some tomatoes, they're so sweet and juicy, we also went biking and kayaking, even though it was a bit cold and windy but I guess that'll be a reason to come back on summer! Thank you for having us Wendy!

Really great place to stay with the family, dog included! Had all you would need for a great time to call home whilst at the beach. Kitchen well equipped, practical furnishings and beautiful views right from the home. Thanks Sally and Mark!

Was a wonderful and peaceful stay for some family time. The unique open plan, yet still private space allowed for everyone to spend time together, but also have alone time. The view over the lake was beautiful and Cassi was wonderful to communicate with.

We needed a beachside place, not too far from home, to meet up with family we don’t see often. We were ecstatic to find this property available. The moment we reached out to the host, we got prompt responses. She was super accommodating & helpful start to finish. This property is a gold mine off the popular beaten path and we hope to visit here again in the near future. The home was stocked with absolutely everything we could possibly need and then some! The game cabinet was a huge hit with the whole family. The pizza oven was a welcomed extra. Waking up and walking on the back veranda to enjoy the sunrise was a dream! The pub, takeaway, deli and shops within walking distance was super convenient. The town wasn’t big, but it was enough & the home supplied everything we needed. Our kids loved the park right across the street as well. There’s no other way to explain our stay except that it felt like home & was a wonderful place to make memories with our loved ones.

One of the best places I've stayed at - very special location. Only issue we had was a contankerous TV remote which froze and required the unit be reset continuously - otherwise a perfect property.

Thank you for an unforgettable stay, Jillian! Seascapes was such a peaceful place to be and my partner and I felt relaxed as soon as we arrived. I really appreciated all the little touches of home that you have made throughout the house. I had the best sleep of my life with the fresh air and soothing sounds of the rainforest, and it was just lovely to feel so isolated yet a short drive from some great attractions in the Daintree. Also, I need to buy myself a hammock now! I could have stayed in that hammock on the verandah with the ocean view for days on end haha. Thank you again for providing a welcome escape to nature.

We had a wonderful stay at this beach-side accommodation. The interior and patio are absolutely stunning and spacious. The views (especially during sunset) is gorgeous and you can see local fishermen in the distance. We were greeted by their lovely staff and complimentary drinks, and communication was fast and responsive. Although it's not entirely secluded/private as you'll have locals hanging around to enjoy the beach, it definitely added to the experience of staying in North Bali. The bed is comfortable, views are amazing, and we had an overall great stay. Would definitely come back and recommend this property.

Modern house with a very nice outlook. Highly recommend this house.

Stephanie was a great help getting inside as the second gate can be missed. But lovely cosy home perfect for winter getaway and exploring the area. Feeding the horses and ponies was a highlight and sitting outside by the fire pit looking at the stars was magical

Stunning location and views. Next time we'll stay longer!

A rare gem—pure bliss by the lake! We stayed one night at Cottage by the Lake, but it felt like a world away from everything. Just 5 minutes from Hanging Rock, this stunning waterfront property features two tranquil lakes, complete with a rowboat and kayaks that guests are free to enjoy. The cottage itself is warm, inviting, and beautifully appointed with a wood fireplace (firewood generously supplied). The upper-level attic bedroom is spacious and cosy, while the well-stocked kitchen had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Hosts Ann and Kevin were incredibly friendly and welcoming. We’d be remiss not to mention Jock, the sweetest dog who welcomed us on arrival and came by for regular visits. He loves pats and hugs and truly made us feel at home. This place is a nature lover’s paradise—kangaroos all around, stunning views, and absolute peace. A rare find we won’t forget. Wish we stayed longer. We will be back for a longer visit next time!

Howard’s love shack was beautiful and cozy, comfortable bed and enjoyed the views and the outdoor fire. Fishing was interesting, wanted to catch a fish but ended up catching a couple of eels. Had a lovely weekend and will be back soon.

We had a lovely stay at this waterfront property. The views were stunning and the little touches, like a bottle of wine on arrival, were a nice addition. The host was friendly and accommodating making sure we had everything we needed. It’s a great spot for a relaxing getaway and we’d happily stay again!

Sea House is such a magical place from the gardens to the views, beach access and the comfort of the house made our stay really wonderful and the balm we needed. Liz was gave great information before we arrived and was really responsive. Can’t wait to get back.

Excellent experience and very peaceful. Lisa went above and beyond over my expectations. Left homemade baked treats for me on the kitchen table. offered to change linens after having to extend my stay. Kitchen was stocked with essentials like coffee, salt, pepper, aluminum foil, etc. Approved my request to extend my stay promptly. If you spend a lot of time in cities I encourage you to step outside at night and take in the incredible view of the stars and sky. PS be very careful driving towards Tumbarumba especially after dark the animals are out and everywhere however it is a nice little drive when you hit the canyon!

We had a delightful stay at Katherine’s cottage over the June long weekend. Kathy, Saxon and their dog Manny were all very warm and welcoming. The cottage is incredible and cosy (the fireplace is an highlight) and the property itself is beautiful and peaceful. We would highly recommend staying here.

Cute little cottage with the most beautiful outlook from the front veranda. Very comfortable.

Tranquility was at the top of our holiday list in Cairns, and our stay or Wendy’s and Glenn’s didn’t fall short of our expectations. The comfortable layout of the space was most welcomed and the architectural design sat beautifully against the landscape. Highly recommend!

Jim and Louisa’s pod is a perfect private Haven, walking disrance to the beach, beautiful garden for a little dog to run out at the front, and the pod had all the amenities needed for a relaxing getaway. The hot spa at night looking at the stars is a must. Definitely recommend!

Jenny was extremely helpful, when we struggled finding the address due to it being dark outside by the time we got there. Beautiful place, everything you need. Right next to the beach. Had a great time :)

Excellent cabin in a lovely tranquil location. Great hosts with everything that you need in the cabin plus more, to have a relaxing time outside of the city. Great for fishing and beach walks, close to amentities if you need to stock up on food too.

I loved my stay at this beautiful cabin! The design was perfect, and everything felt so peaceful. The hot tub was a highlight—especially under the stars and during sunset. I woke up to birds singing and even saw kangaroos in the morning, which was magical. The bonfire at night and the olive trees around the property added to the charm. The directions were clear and easy to follow. Such a relaxing and memorable getaway

Cant get over how beautiful our weekend was, staying at this Air BnB. So so peaceful, the house is done so homely. There’s no much to add, as the description depicts it perfectly. I would recommended, highly!!!

Absolutely beautiful place, The hosts were really friendly and very helpful. Even gave us fererro roches and fresh fruit. Offered us late checkout too ! Really kind hosts. Would stay here again for sure and 100% would recommend this beautiful spot.
