Paradise in Bicheno
Pros:

This place is right on the beach with bush surroundings. So peaceful and tranquil. The host John is very friendly and helpful. There is so much to do in Bicheno and also close to other attractions, such as Wineglass Bay.
We had an amazing stay here. Fully equipped kitchen and a log fireplace. It's definitely great for a family or two couples. Worth every cent.

Cons:

Didn't like the fact that we had to leave.

Would come back in a heartbeat for a break from everything and to recharge the batteries
Pros:

This place is truly magical. Completely private with the most perfect beach in front where you can walk for miles. The fact it is off leash for your dog is a real bonus. Our dog had the best time ( as did we)

Comfortable and relaxing with a friendly vibe
Pros:

Peaceful homely and comfortable. Old fashioned beach-holiday vibe. Long beach walks. We really relaxed. Owner John very helpful and friendly. ( we didn’t meet Annette) Sandpiper is their home so it’s not just a business, but personal with lots of thoughtful touches.

We will remember Sandpiper with great fondness
Pros:

We loved everything: the commodious cottage, the warm and interesting owners, the delicious breakfast tray, and the location—a few minutes down a sandy path to the widest, emptiest and most beautiful beach we’ve ever walked. This place is a gem!

Cons:

Zero

Escape to the beautiful East Coast
Pros:

Comfortable, well equipped cottage located minutes from the beach. Nice welcome pack. Friendly host.

Cons:

Some maintenance needed. Dodgy pop up plug in bathroom sink. Gutters over back door seemingly blocked when rain got heavy.
