Relaxing few nights at the beach
The property is perfectly located for a relaxing beach holiday. The house had everything we needed as well as being super doggy friendly with a good sized secure yard. Iluka is also a lovely friendly beachside town with a great dog beach and the house has really easy access to the river beaches as well (which our dogs loved even more than the beach!).

The place needs some work
Location was great only short walk to the shops. There are a lot of things at this place that need work. They are little things but they would make a huge difference. Aircon remote in living room wouldn’t work, battery flat I think. Mattress left more to be desired as wasn’t very comfortable. Some window furnishings were too rusted to lift up or down. The front door needs a handle on the inside. Outdoor light didn’t work. But we really liked how big the yard was for our dogs and that it was fully fenced.

Dog holiday
It is not always easy to find good dog-friendly accommodation. Blue Haven proved an excellent home-away-from-home. The yard is well-secured front and rear whilst the small front deck (where our dog slept) has a gate. Overall, the cottage was well appointed and met our needs, despite a lack of wi-fi. Small kitchen but this was not a problem as we ate out most nights. Iluka itself proved a very quiet but friendly town.

Vintage Coastal Cottage with all needs covered
My family of 4 stayed for the weekend in Blue Haven. Tatum was friendly, helpful and responsive. The cottage is centrally located in Iluka, with walking paths at the front of the property. Kids were happy playing in the tidy, fenced backyard or watching a complimentary DVD. 1min walk to The Freshwater cafe on Saturday and Sunday for breakfast or coffee. The home was appealing, warm and had conveniences such as air-conditioning and a washing machine/dryer. We had a lovely time and would happily rebook for another time.
