  2. Jennifer

    We really enjoyed our stay over the Christmas holiday! We had two families with 6 teens and we all enjoyed the property and amenities. The game room downstairs was perfect! Plenty of space to accommodate our group and beautiful property. Easy walk to the back beach. We appreciated the Christmas tree!

  3. Lin

    Wonderful spot and beautiful location. House is in much better condition than pictures show. Great separation for kids and adults – and dogs loved it too. Beach is beautiful and short walk away. As is general store and cafe. We had a great time!

  4. Steven

    The photos of this place do not do it justice. The whole booking, check-in and checkout process were very straight forward, and they even provided us with guides on how to use things at the property! I could not recommend this place and the company enough!

  5. Angela

    We booked the house “back beach serenity” for a short getaway. Book a Break we’re so lovely to deal with, communication was excellent and they were so accomodating. The checkin and checkout process was very simple. Highly recommend booking through this business

  6. Boby

    A very well maintained beautiful house with such great character A modern house with all facilities in the middle of trees ???? More than what we expected The games , Karoke , table tennis was all added bonus Kids loved it and adults could just relax as there was enough for kids to entertain themselves Walkable distance to the beech was so good . Beautiful neighbourhood Above all the bookabreak staff was such a great support and help . Even offered us a late check out as we were with kids ❤️❤️❤️ Will recommend this to all

  7. Sally

    A spacious, well equipped house which was perfect for a family gathering. Distinct areas where children and adults could spend seperate time but also large communal areas for family relaxation and meals. Large outdoor lawn area was well used for play and family fitness sessions. The Christmas tree was a lovely touch thank you!

  8. Maurice

    The place was amazing. Beautiful huge elevated deck overlooking the property and surrounds. We felt at home.

    Great location to stunning back beaches. Beautiful property with an easy short walk to the beach.

  12. Kellie

    We had a great time staying in Rye, the house was very spacious and well-equipped, and the kids loved the table tennis! It was a very short walk to the beach and the general store, which made it an easy holiday as the teenagers could wander around by themselves. Would recommend it for a large family or two families as a great house with lots of space for everyone.

  13. Laura

    Great stay, plenty of space for an extended family long weekend, we had a great time and the kids loved the playroom. Close to the back beach for walks. Great communication. Thanks so much!
