Awesome property so close to the beach. We were lucky enough to see whales from the shore on our first day!! House is amazing with enough space for the whole family. Teenager really enjoyed the loft room. We will definitely be booking again.

A stone's throw from the beach with everything you could need. A happy, cosy holiday house with heaps of character.

Property was cozy and while cold outside heater worked well. The backyard was great for the dogs. Milk, coffee and chocolate were there on arrival. Really enjoyed our time there

Very easy process and felt like home! Very pet friendly, puppies enjoyed their stay as well! Will definitely return to the retro shack again!

Absolutely loved our stay , our girls did too , my daughter and our two dogs 🐶! Location perfect loved the house awesome character ! Everything we needed will definitely come back ! We were greeted by a fabulous neighbour across the road on our first night Gus the elephant seal what a treat to see him every day ! Absolutely loved it 😊

Very nice and clean. Good for a family and pets.

Even better than the photos, this 1960s extended beach house has all the atmosphere of a relaxed beach shack but all the amenities of a house where it counts. So the shower is strong and hot yet housed in a large laundry with retro, good condition sixties tiles. The kitchen has original-looking wooden cupboards and benches and is well stocked and has a decent stove, microwave, large fridge (also another fridge in the room leading to the garden). The bedrooms had original wardrobes and very comfortable beds, pillows and linen. There was a cute lookout room up wooden steps. The garden room is large and casual enough for storing beach gear and sleeping dogs and good for dining on the long wooden table. There are lots of extras like pull out clothes lines, binoculars, pegs, body boards, games and beach equipment to use. We loved the decor and the art work and the effort taken to create the sixties ambience. The back yard is well fenced with a covered area and lots of grass for the doggos. We were walking Cape to Cape on the five days that we were coming and going from here so we definitely want to return to get the most out of this fantastic place. Communication was excellent and Toni even told us about the Southern Elephant Seal that was using the beach right opposite as its resting place while it moulted - such an interesting bonus! We totally recommend The Retro Shack.

Absolutely adored this little blue shack that my family and I stayed in for 2 nights for my birthday. Beautiful location where this peaceful gem is located across from flinders bay. Lucky enough to see a seal who was resting during our stay, directly across the road. Thanks for an amazing visit!

Kids loved the backyard playing area ... I loved the back BBQ area

This cozy old shack is meters to the beach and our fur-baby loved the twice daily beach walks, not so much the wash down on the front patio. We liked that it was tucked away into the suburb with neighbours and no noisy holidaymakers around us. Owners have everything you need inside and we did a mix of in-home cooking and dining out. The food at Colour Patch was amazing, and pub grub and views great at Augusta Hotel. We also did trips out to some wineries and snorkeling at Prevelly and Granny's Pool. Fishbone is my new favourite, great wine and food was exquisite. Great spot to stay. The place is old with beach shack charms, well-loved and clean.

All good

So close to beach,walks, town. Doggy safe. Gem!!

The retro shack is awesome, great location, peaceful and cosy. Enjoyed our stay very much.

Great location, all you need for a comfy stay

We loved this little ocean side beauty in our favourite place, half way between Flinders and the Colourpatch. It’s cosy as and is equipped with absolutely everything you need. Perfect for our pooch too. Lots of special touches included by the lovely owners. We would highly recommend.

The property is good for family and the back yard was great for our dogs. On arrival the host has left a bottle of milk in the fridge along with coffee beans and a large KitKat. Overall this property provided us with everything we need to have a family Christmas

Couldn’t be better

We loved our break at the Retro Shack. It was comfortable and well positioned for us being opposite the dog beach and a good walk into town for coffee and food. Would definitely recommend it

Perfect spot near the beach. Quaint cottage with a mixed decor of retro & beach Everything anyone would need & more.

Communication was easy. Only problrm was i had problems with webpage😩wanted to let host know that we just left and could not get page to load.

Couldn't of been easier....will be back again.

Property had everything you could need for a short stay. Hope to return again.

A lovely place to unwind, relax and laze about after walking the Cape to Cape. Some special touches made us feel very welcome. Toni is a great host.

This shack had everything we needed & was in a great location to the beach.

a nice little cottage , comfortable, with interesting areas. My favourite thing was the proximity to the beach.

Beautiful 4 days relaxing in Augusta. Lovely house just a perfect place

This accommodation housed 5 adults quite comfortably. 2 fridges is a winner. Close to the beach and the Colour Patch. We enjoyed our stay thoroughly- many thanks.

Loved the location across the beach and the big back yard !

perfect location, comfortable and very welcoming of our dogs

From the time you pull into the driveway, you start smiling. The sign proclaims "the retro shack" and isn't she. Funky old tiles in the kitchen bathroom some lovely touches throughout. But overall it's comfortable cosy and is very well appointed. A upstairs room to look out over the ocean or chill out in the winter sun , or put a movie on for the kids. The shack is situated in a quiet gorgeous leafy area and Jay's beach is seriously less than 100m out of the driveway. The shack is dog friendly , child friendly , people friendly. We loved it.

Great proximity to the ocean, with walking distance to restaurant. Very family friendly, supplying everything needed for an ocean getaway.

We've enjoyed our stay. Internet was good. So close to the ocean, you can hear the waves while you sleep.
