545 - Bayview Cottage - Bay view

This is a purpose built, free standing Cottage. One of six cottages and apartments available at 545. We offer FREE, FAST, RELIABLE & UNLIMITED WIFI to guests. Your own carport next to your cottage, private washing line and grassed area. The private deck is a perfect sunny spot to kick off your shoes and relax while looking through the palm trees to the aqua waters of the bay and Esplanade.
For those who have been travelling and are stopping for a breather, you have your own washing machine and washing liquid, pegs and laundry basket are supplied.
We supply a complimentary light breakfast of cereal and fresh milk and also teas/coffee and sugar.
The queen size bed and single beds are very comfortable and all beds have freshly cleaned and pressed linen to add a bit of luxury to your stay as well as fluffy white towels to give you that hotel feel. Beach towels are also provided and we ask that the fluffy white towels do not go to the beach.
The kitchen has everything you need to cook up a feast and the bathroom is set out for safe and easy access to the shower, perfect for people who are less sturdy on their feet.
Finally, the view from the sofa's mean that you don't even have to go outside to see the sparkling water.
Whale Watching Season kicks off Mid july and finishes mid October. If this has been on your bucket list then spend some time with us enjoying our beautiful sunny Queensland winter days and experience these majestic and wonderful creatures close up. Hervey Bay is known as the 'Best Place for Close Encounters with Whales' in the world and it won't disappoint!
Being on the Esplanade, you have a bus running every hour to the main shopping area and onto Maryborough. The larger clubs such as the Boat Club, RSL and beach House all have regular a courtesy bus which will pick up and drop you back home free of charge. The Fraser Island Tours and Whale Watching Tours will pick up and drop off near enough outside your apartment so no need to walk too far. Hervey Bay is also lucky enough to have several Driver 05 services which are fantastic. You drive to your destination (within Hervey Bay) and they will drive you and your car back at the same rate as a taxi. Fraser Coast Airport is a 10 minute drive from the Esplanade, taxis are available.
URANGAN Shopping Centre is a 2 minute ride away which has everything you may require including a Post Office, Chemist, Newsagent, Bottle Shop, Butchers and Woolworths. You also have Cafes, Bakers, Pubs and restaurants in walking distance.
The 17 kilometre shared walkway and cycle way along the Esplanade is perfect if you want to hire bikes which are close at hand too.
The Botanical Gardens are in walking distance and is home to aquatic wildlife and bird life. These gardens have much improved over the last 3 years and also has a Chinese Garden and Orchid House.

We stayed in the 2 bedroom cottage. It had everything we could possibly want including a good and quiet location to make our 3 night stay relaxing and enjoyable. Would certainly return here on our next visit to Hervey Bay.

Flawless Beachfront Stay
We had a wonderful stay in Cottage 6. Sarah has thought of everything to make this property comfortable for guests. We loved the beachfront location and parking for our boat and 4WD. Sarah we appreciated your thoughtful chocolates and postcard on arrival. Very comfortable cottage and fantastic location as a base to explore Fraser Island by boat. We will be back, thank you.

Great position with lovely outlook
We had a lovely relaxing time. Everything you would want was there. You could step off a plane with just clothes & pick up some food on the way and want for nothing else. Even had our linen changed mid way through our 11 night stay. That was unexpected and very nice. Thanks to Sarah & Ian for their hospitality & friendliness. We would certainly stay again. Thanks Lyn and Noel

Excellent!
Sarah and Ian have thought of everything with their set up of our cottage. It has comfortable beds and sofas, a great set up in the kitchen and the bathroom is generous in size. We were able to do laundry which is always a plus when travelling. The addition of breakfast staples is also a nice touch. We stayed in Number 6 which is away from the road but has a pleasant sea view down the driveway. The area has lots of restaurants and boardwalk in walking distance. One of the best places cottages we have stayed. Would highly recommend.

Omg so lovely - awesome spot - easy walk to the pier and local cafes and dining option. The accomodation was superb - just drove into the carport for our cottage and unloaded on the deck. Sarah is so friendly and full of local helpful advice for the area. 5 star. No pool but who needs one when you have the beach.

Blissful, serene and clean, all with the ultimate in hospitality.
We were impressed with the cleanliness of the cottage and with what was available to use within it, to assist with our stay to be comfortable and pleasant. As the saying goes, "at times, it's the little things that make the difference.!" ... We were impressed.! The cottage was conveniently located towards The Pier at Hervey Bay with a walk across the road and you're on the beach. The communication, information and assistance, prior to and during our stay, along with the friendly welcoming on arrival was sincerely excellent. We were also grateful for the intrinsic nature of the personality of the host and the manager. Will we stay again.? ...... The answer is, " a definite yes" from us.!

Beautiful cottage !
We were so happy with the position and the amenities at this cottage clean and modern. We were greeted on arrival and Sarah the owner was very helpful welcoming. The water can be seen down the driveway from the cottage. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had some essentials left for us milk,cereal, water and chocolates ,a nice addition. Across the road a lovely walk along the shore and down to Urangan pier. Thank you for a pleasant stay.

Lovely Stay in Hervey Bay
We stayed 3 nights at the Cottage and Sarah and Ian were very welcoming and extremely helpful, even giving us a lift to a local record shop we wanted to visit upon our arrival. The Cottage is exceptionally clean and bright with lots of lovely touches and well equipped. There are restaurants very nearby, we explored these plus some further up the road by the beach. A lovely sandy beach is over the road with the biggest collection of shells I have ever seen. One day we walked the entire Esplanade with lots of stop offs. The Pier is a lovely evening walk. The harbour a good spot for lunch. Thank you Sarah and Ian and team for our lovely stay in Hervey Bay.

Wonderful 😊
It was very good and we were very happy. We would definitely recommend Bayview Cottage. It was exceptionally clean, beautiful linen and all the comforts you could think of. The Cottage was better equipped and serviced than most Resorts and Motels. The Owners and Manager are lovely and very obliging. The Cottage is close enough but still quiet and private. They really did think of everything.

Could not have been better
We had a brilliant stay at Bayview Cottage and if we are ever in the area again this would be our first choice of place to stay. Sarah and her team could not have been more friendly and helpful ..... it was a delight to get to know them. The cottage had everything we could have wished for and I have no hesitation in giving it a 5* ..... no .... a 10* review. Well done Sarah and team - you have provided something very special. It was a joy to meet, spend some time and share some laughs with you. You are a credit to Hervey Bay. You provided a friendly and professional service that made a wonderful holiday just that extra bit special.

Just Perfect!
Sarah’s cottage provided for us a perfect place to relax, wind down and enjoy the beauty of Hervey Bay. It is immaculate and beautifully decorated, light and airy, very comfortable (slept like logs!) with everything, and more, that we needed. We very much appreciated the thoughtfulness and care that has gone into creating this holiday oasis for fortunate visitors. Thank you Sarah! We had a wonderful 11 days and could not more highly recommend experiencing a stay in your cottage....it was just perfect!

Complete satisfaction with everything.
We have just returned from a delightful holiday at the beautiful Hervey Bay. We were most fortunate to have found on the internet Bayview Cottages right in the heart of everything. On arrival we were totally impressed with the cottage, but on entering it we were blown away. The interior design is just gorgeous, and nothing has been forgotten. It felt like home! I always look for a few things when booking accomodation......Cleanliness, comfortable beds, a quite position and a feeling of security. Well, Bayview Cottage has all this, and more!!!! The owners Sarah and Ian are very friendly and helpful and the on site manager, well, she is a gem. These cottages are newly built and are across the road from the water. Bayview Cottage will certainly be our first choice for future holidays. We most definitely recommend this place 100%. Glenda and Barry.
