We had such a lovely time at Sand Chook. Netflix and wi-fi were great, and so handy to have the Nespresso machine too! It is a surf town house, but the personal touches with curious surf-themed artwork and the displayed surf boards added a touch of fun.
We loved having our dog with us and she hadn't been to the beach so that was an adventure. The yard is very secure even for our sight hound who can jump.
Sand Chook is laid out with plenty of space if you wanted to have room away from each other, if that's what you need! Our special needs teenage struggles with stairs, but thankfully upstairs had all she needed, so we didn't have to stress about going up and down. We only just discovered the toddler gate in the WIR as we were packing up, but if parents with little ones are worried about the stairs, I suspect that would put fears to rest.
We didn't use a lot of the wonderful facilities, as the weather was a bit too cool to BBQ or eat outside, but we were warm and comfortable when we came home from the beach.
We would love to get back some time.

Beautiful stay
We loved our time here. The house and yards were spotlessly clean and tidy. Our three young kids and dog all loved walking a short distance to swell cafe and down onto the beach. Fabulous location, quiet street and very comfortable home. All we needed right here.

Sandchock never disappoints
Having previously been regulars at the Sandchock we had missed the last 3 years. It was just so good to be back at our favourite beach and house!
A fantastic house that is set up to cater for all ages groups. We have had young primary school kids and now teenagers, who equally had a great time.
It's also great to see owners who continue to upgrade their property (new sofas and down stairs split system since our last visit).
We will definitely be back!
