Abbey Beach Shack, Busselton - A Retro Beach Retreat

Fresh and clean 3 bedroom 1 bath retro beach shack. Just steps to glorious old Abbey beach in Busseltons premier beachside holiday suburb.

This holiday home is also pet friendly and has been priced attractively in the short term to quickly gain bookings and our experience with letting other holiday homes of various comparison nearby suggests it will quickly begin to book up so it may pay to book your dates now to avoid disapointment.

holiday

The property was in a good location. However the house was poorly maintained, lamps didn't work, sofas had a strong smell and were grubby. Previous tenants had left toys lying around and general cleanliness was poor. Also found broken glass when we were cleaning up.

Great Location

Old property but everything you need is provided (just bring egg-cups if you're partial to a boiled egg!). Kitchen was definitely retro but functional. Heaps of games available, a cosy little TV room, outdoor area is lovely in the evening with possums for company, beds were comfortable. Only a few steps to the beautiful beach at the end of the road so location is great. BBQ looked a bit grime but we used trays so all good. We were five adults staying and the lack of a second bathroom/ensuite surprisingly wasn't an issue, shows how pampered we are at home :-) Overall, a great little house due to the location and we'd definitely go back.

Abbey Beach Shack

Lucky enough to get this home in the April school holidays. Located on a quiet street less than a minute walk from Abbey Beach, the house is an older style but has everything you need for a family holiday. And pet friendly too! Will be back for sure

I love this house! It’s not new and it doesn’t need to be because it’s comfortable and welcoming. Everything you need is in the house and shops and conveniences are just around the corner. The location is perfect and I can’t wait to visit again.
