We loved our stay in Great Mackerel. The house was perfect for our family with a big flat loan at the back to play and space to relax and enjoy each other company. There were plenty of games for the kids both indoors and outdoors and the kitchen was extremely well stocked. Thanks!

As long term Mackeral holiday makers we have been staying at Hannah's property for years, one of best holiday rentals in this fabulous beach community. The contemporary layout is perfect for two families, it has multiple zones to hang out in (which is essential when you have lots of teenagers!) and the property comes with kayaks and paddleboards for hours of fun on the water. Best of all though is Hannah herself. She is a top class host going above and beyond to make her guests stay memorable. Can't wait to come back again.

Another wonderful stay
We had another relaxing stay at Hannah’s gorgeous property. 2 x families with kids ranged between 5-8 years. The house was incredibly clean and had everything required. Communication with Hannah is always easy and friendly. Mackerel in itself is also a super spot for little kids. Second year in a row we’ve visited and we look forward to coming again soon

Stylish beautifully restored house at Mackerels
Hannah’s place is a beautifully restored sandstone house hidden at the back of Mackerels. The house has everything you could possibly want, we particularly enjoyed the outdoor covered seating where it was lovely to sit and have an end of day drink. The beach is gorgeous and there are some great walks with spectacular scenery. Hannah was very responsive and full of helpful tips.

Fabulous retreat for families
We've been holidaying at Great Mackeral Beach with friends for the past 5yrs and Hannah's place is the best we've stayed at. The layout is fantastic for two families as the multiple spaces provide plenty of room for everyone and the interior design is classic and elegant. Extra touches such as kayaks and coffee pods made the stay even more enjoyable. And when my son left his headphones behind Hannah went to the trouble of having them posted interstate to us. Fantastic experience in every way. We will most definitely be back for our next stay at Mackeral.

Magical House on Mackerel Beach
Hannah's place was everything we could have asked for. We were in desperate need of a vacation and some family time and her place gave us the space to relax. We loved cooking in the beautiful kitchen and relaxing in the covered patio area. Mackerel Beach is such a special place and we will definitely be back! Hannah was also so helpful and responsive and went above and beyond.
