Original Beach Shack
An original Beach shack with ocean views and beach access. Well equipped, good location with air con. Driveway needs attention as it is hard to access without a 4 wheel drive, almost got bogged. The location is the best. We could walk everywhere. We were there during Crab Fest - it was so convient to walk and not need to find parking.

Love love this location, have stayed at many Mandurah beach properties, this is great
This property could do with a few upgrades, mattresses and pillows a bit dirty and old, doors and blinds not in good condition. But the view and location is to die for xx

Fabulous
What a great, quirky place to stay. Fabulous location. Everything you need including hand soap in the bathrooms, spare toilet rolls, plenty of dishwashing tablets etc. We were 4 adults and 6 teenagers and there was plenty of crockery, cutlery and room at the dining table for us all! We will definitely stay here again.

Great house for young families
Great beach shack set up for young families, close to the beach with a grassy yard to play. Good selection of kitchen items to prepare meals and plenty of room at the table. Shona and the team were super helpful when we called. A great find.

It's perfect if you have kids
The place is great for kids they can't tear up the place . It's hommy like going to granny's back in the day . The bunk beds kinda smell a little potty I say that word becuase they didn't Like the word but other then that we had a great time . The outside setting is really what you pay for . Would rent again .

True beach cottage, the sound of the waves nearly at your door. Everything provided that you need, although baking pans short on supply. Outdoor area amazing!

So good that I don't want to tell everyone
Perfect home for a beach holiday. We are two adults with four older teens and the location of this beach cottage was ideal - right on the beach with the feeling of “being away from it all” but close enough to easily walk in to town for movies etc. This is the second time that I have stayed and will certainly be booking again.

A beautiful old school beach getaway that allowed for a very relaxing stay. We had everything we needed and the location gave us flexibility in what we chose to do through the day. Will definitely book this property again.

Great house fabulous location
This property was great for our boys weekend away. The location was perfect, beach access from the back gate and the Mandurah marina and foreshore were just a short stroll away. The large wooden table on the back deck was great, particularly in the afternoon when the sea breeze came in, keeping the place nice and cool. The kitchen, dining and family area was also a good size and easily accommodated our group of six. I would highly recommend this property to families and groups wanting a relaxing getaway in the Mandurah beach area.

Well equiped beach cottage for a relaxing break no matter the season.
We were a group of 8 women wanting a bed each, 2 bathrooms, a table we could all sit at and somewhere we could RELAX. 96 Ormsby gave us that. The kitchen is well equipped. The built in icemaker and cold water dispenser is a great plus. Excellent cooling/heating in all areas. Great big table to fit everyone around. Plenty of TV watching options and excellent wifi. One of the bathrooms is outside but we got used to that very quickly. Laundry facilities excellent. Beds... no one complained. Outside area... wow!!! HUGE outside table and barbeque for our ritual big champagne breakfast. Lots of lawn to lie on while catching some winter sunshine. The sparkly lights at night put us in a party mood. Would be great for a family ( even 2 families) holiday and for families of mixed ages. The clean beach is a very short stroll away. House is in an excellent position... close to centre of town, suoermarkets, restaurants and take aways. We had a great 3 night break. We would have liked a second set of keys. We actually locked the keys in the "back room" but our hostess was easily contacted and she came to our rescue immediately! Finally... if you are looking for an upmarket mansion the cottage is not for you. If you want a good old fashioned relaxing and carefree family beach holiday with modern conveniences then you should really enjoy this little gem. We did!
