Fantastic house in a fantastic location. Well maintained, clean and tidy, tastefully decorated. Full kitchen with modern appliances. Spotless bathrooms. Bed was so comfortable - I slept like a baby. Close to amazing village cafes and beach. Super impressed with the pre-check in communication, easy check in and check out.

The interior was beautifully decorated and exceeded expectations. I found instructions for departure on top of the fridge out of sight stating that bins must be emptied to avoid additional cost. These instructions should be located in a more obvious spot. I couldn't get the tv working because it was all wi-fi and I couldn't see how to get regular tv. The exterior could use an update and clean however the inside more than made up for it. Overall I was happy with my stay and would visit again.

The property was very well set out and our accommodation was very roomy. There was plenty of bedding. There was only a gas heater downstairs and the upstairs was very cold. We got a headache and felt a bit sick after the heater had been on for a while. There was mould on the tiles around the bath and in the plug hole and the toilet was dirty under the rim.

TV in the main bedroom would be a good addition. I am happy to clean up after myself and put dishwasher on, but having to empty the dishwasher before check out is a pain especially if you have a cooked breakfast in the morning. But, that’s minor, overall, we would most definitely stay again.

Great place to wind down

Blueys Retreat is located in a peaceful little seaside village near Boodi Boodi National Park. The 3 bed townhouse I stayed in overlooked a rainforest and was quiet and peaceful. Excellent facilities with screens, digital tv and music, air conditioning, a full kichen and back veranda with bbq. Bedrooms were upstairs and the main bedroom was comfort with a good size ensuite. The complex had a pool and tennis court and friendly staff. Walking distance to cafes and shops and the beach is a few blocks further. Very pleasant place in a stunning area of lakes, forests and white sand.

Different to the photographs

When i was booking this accondation i could see that there was a difference between the images for the two and three bedroom properties. The three bedroom properties were shown to be recently decorated and more tastefully styled compared to the two bedroom properties. Despite only needing a two bedroom place I decided to spend more money and book a three bedroom home as I wanted a fresh and modern interior. However, when we arrived at the property we diacovered that ours was not a recently decorated home but was looking a bit tired.
I was disappointed that the images of the different properties varied and did not in fact represent what you were spending your money on.

Tranquil location

Nice place to stay well appointed. The only let down and this is my common gripe with all places like this is that you pay a reasonable fee to stay but the supplies left by the hotel staff are significantly lacking. No cleaning products, lack of toilet paper, no washing up liquid etc etc. How hard would it be to just leave enough complimentary for the duration of the stay. The last thing I want is having to go shopping for crap I dont want to shopping for.
Other than that is was good.

My partner and I were very pleased with our accommodation at blueys retreat. We both noticed how peaceful it was during our stay and particularly so at night. We experienced friendly staff working at reception and appreciated the thoughtful suggestions given to us on some places of interest worth a visit. I am very much looking forward to getting back up the coast and experiencing this magnificent part of NSW again. I have no doubt that I will be aiming to stay at blueys retreat during any future visits.

Disappointing experience

My daughter and I stayed here recently. The advertisement stated it was luxury accommodation and had a rental fee to match. We arrived after office closing hours and found the townhouse to be clean and neat. However, in no way could it be considered \"luxury\". The living and dining rooms were furnished cheaply with cane furniture. The comfort of the beds was adequate but not luxury, and the pillows were cheap and thin. The main bathroom in the apartment had been locked to prevent our using it! Only a small ensuite shower room off the main bedroom was accessible. This meant that one of us had to go through the bedroom at night, while the other was sleeping, in order to access the ensuite. It would have been nice to relax in a bath after our long journey. Only one towel per person was provided, and one hand towel for two in the ensuite. On checkout in the morning, I spoke with the office manager and expressed our disappointment. He told me that he had assumed that we were a couple because the booking was made for two people (it was a three bedroom unit). I mentioned that no one from the resort had enquired to check that we were a couple and in any case for the price we paid I would expect a proper full bathroom and more towels. Clearly the resort wanted to save on laundry and cleaning fees, and the feeling was that the minimum had been done, while charging high fees, in order to squeeze the maximum profit.

Great size for a family of 5

We had a lovely weekend at Blueys retreat. Kids loved the pool, spa and kids room. We found they could ride their bikes safely around the complex which was great. Apartment was a great size for our family of 5 and well equipt. We had takeaway from Kingfisher Cafe on the Friday night which was delicious. The only negative comment I would say is that the internal stairs are steep and would have like the option of a baby gate when checking in with children under 2 years old. We had to block them off with luggage to stop him climbing up and made sure he was always with us when we were upstairs in the bedrooms.
Would definitely stay again :)

Weekend escape to Blueys

We wanted to get away from the city for a few days to celebrate my birthday and have some relaxation time. Blueys Retreat was a perfect choice. The houses are amazing! Everything you could ask for and the BBQ on the deck was fully used for breakfast and dinner. The location is only a few minutes walk from the beach and an easy drive to many of the most beautiful coastal vistas that you could ever dream of seeing. The facilities are ideal for families or couples. Staff very friendly and willing to help with advice on places to see.

We managed to get away at the last minute for a short family stay during January school holidays. Excellent time had by all - tennis, swimming, pool (billiards). Easy walk to local shops and Blueys beach (even with a 12 year old who would rather drive everywhere!). Our townhouse was well equipped with everything we needed - plenty of room to relax and spread out. Fabulous having screen enclosed outdoor area to enjoy alfresco meals without the mozzies! We will definitely be back and for a longer time next visit - so many outer areas to explore from this location.

Could have been so much better.

Townhouse set up was ok, but room cleanliness left a lot to be desired. Kitchen was oily and grubby, had to wash plates/cutlery before use, fridge door and cupboards dirty, I could go on and on. Skirting boards VERY dusty and dirty. When booking it stated aircon, which was heating only. This should have been noted as it was the middle of summer and a heatwave. Pool MUCH smaller than it looks on internet and forget the 'free' wifi, it's virtually non existent. At $410 a night its overrated.
