Beachfront Rest - Absolute Beachfront!

Imagine waking up in the morning to the sound of singing birds, with the sunlight streaming into your bedroom window.

Looking out your bedroom window, through the trees you can see the sun glinting on a calm ocean, lapping at a white sandy beach that lies just 50 metres from the back of the house. You can smell the fresh sea air, and perhaps hear the gentle rolling of the waves. You look down and see the secluded path from your backyard leading to the beach just 50 paces away, beckoning; and all at once the frantic pace of your normally hectic and busy life seems like a million miles away. Welcome to BEACHFRONT REST!

This is our 8th year holidaying in Toogoom and our 3rd stay at Beach Rest. We couldn’t love it more. Host and manager are very responsive and considerate.The extra aircons a welcome addition on those extreme hot days. The clearing of the back area gives you now such a lovely view of the creek and beyond. The renovated bathroom and kitchen make everything seem so bright and airy. It’s such a good place for all generations from small kids, teens, young adults to the grown ups. Sleep, swim, walk, fish, eat and repeat. Thank you again Hugh, Sue and Gail.

Hugh was wonderful to deal with. A lovely home. The area so peaceful, right on the beach. The home itself caters to large families. A great layout letting people relax and have opportunities to chill out in their own space. Great rumpus games areas. Everything one could need and more. A bonus having linen supplied. All the appliances and implements required for a great stay. All soaps supplied. Making a very easy and comfortable stay. We will be back

Hugh’s Property is so lovely, comfy beds and there was enough space for everyone! We saw turtles whilst SUP’ing in the inlet. We all had lots of fun with the ping pong table and all the added extra’s. Was so easy with all the supplies in the kitchen. Overall, highly recommend for big groups who want to take a time out!

Almost perfect.

The house was great. Unfortunately the weather turned nasry after first couple of days which turned the beach water into mangrove tea colour. So swimming was only for the brave. Otherwise it was a very enjoyable stay.

Great location and well fitted out house

The house, whilst dated, was very well fitted out and had everything you could possible need. The location couldn't be better and having direct beach access was great. Hugh communicated promptly and clearly leading up to our arrival and the whole check-in process was easy. I would recommend this property for anyone looking to have a nice relaxing holiday in Toogoom.
