We stayed 4 nights at Blue Bundaleer and it was absolute perfection. Everything about the property, the house and its location, exceeded our expectations. The house is very comfortable, well appointed and has a fantastic covered verandah that overlooks the water. Lounging on the verandah, was incredibly relaxing and also exciting when watching local kangaroos visiting and grazing in the backyard.
Although the backyard is not completely fenced, our small dog was always enclosed and safe. The frontyard is completely fenced and the large back verandah is also completely enclosed. The house is very dog friendly and our dog enjoyed the holiday as much as we did!
Communication with Dale, the owner, was very easy. He always replied promptly to our questions, provided very clear instructions about the check in process, and also gave helpful tips about the local area. In addition to this, we were greeted with a welcome pack upon arrival.
We are already looking forward to our next holiday at Blue Bundaleer!

If it was possible to give zero stars then that is what this place deserves.
This property is waterfront but that is the only attribute advertised by the owner that is accurate. You can find better places than this mess.
The house was dirty and musty. Everything in it feels like it was bought at a junk shop except for the stove which looked OK but the oven was dirty.
CCTV everywhere - do not believe the owner when he states CCTV not operating when paying guests are in residence as the lights were blinking the entire time we were there
The whole stay was uncomfortable.
The waterfront is not a beach like in the photo but is a mangrove area.
Priority is overpriced and is to be avoided at all costs.
Do yourself a service and find somewhere to stay where the cleaning is done properly so you can holiday without dust, dirt, mold, mildew smelly carpet and second rate interior.
Check in process is a joke as the keys were in an open box at a real estate in someone else’s name and then we found a set of keys in the open meter box - so not sure who else had access to the property without us knowing
This is not a place for a happy holiday.

Lovely location, so peaceful and quiet. Great access to water and beach (at low tide). Kids had a great time.

Lovely accommodation with plenty of room for a family with adult children that is located in an amazing location. Our stay was relaxing and very peaceful and we loved stepping out of the house and being right on the bay. It was great to find a place that also welcomed our family dog. We enjoyed the evening visits by the local kangaroos and wandering along the shore at low tide. Even though the weather was mixed it didn't detract from our stay due to the location and accommodation. Dale is an amazing host who provided excellent service by checking in that all is in order and being available to contact if needed. We will definitely be back.

We had a fantastic week at Blue Bundaleer. The property exceeded our expectations and they were high to begin with. The owner Dale could not have been more accommodating and helpful particularly with re-scheduling of our dates due to Covid. Would recommend this property to any family, couple or small group looking for a relaxing getaway. Great house, great location and views are superb. Thanks Dale.

Our family of 4 (all adults) spent a wonderful relaxing weekend. Even the wet, cold, windy weather didn’t stop us from enjoying the surrounding area including a trip to nearby Hawks Nest, Tea Gardens and walks with our dogs on the sand at the rear of the house at low tide. We loved watching the kangaroos visit in the morning and afternoon. Our dogs had a great time playing ball in the backyard and were well and truly tired out by the time we returned home. The host Dale is extremely helpful and the welcome pack was a lovely surprise. We would definitely love to return - hopefully on a warmer weekend so we can enjoy some water time.

My family and I stayed for 6 nights at Blue Bundaleer and we did not want to leave. Dale was a most gracious and friendly host, very easy to talk to. The welcome gift was a lovely surprise. Waking up to lake views was so relaxing. Sitting on the deck at night having a drink and watching the lights across the bay was lovely. Wonderful spot to fish straight from rear yard, caught a few small whiting but had to throw back. Our dog loved running and swimming. Thoroughly recommend this lovely property for a peaceful getaway.

We had a relaxing stay at the property. Lovely spacious house overlooking the water. It was beautiful sitting on the balcony with a glass of wine. What a wonderful treat to see kangaroos daily on our lawn. Helpful and gracious host, we would indeed like to stay there again!

An absolutely relaxing holiday home! The property presents very comfortably overlooking the bay. It was clean, well equipped and provided unhindered waterviews. The owner also provided kayaks to the absolute delight of the 2 boys and of course the adults too. The owner is very approachable and accomodating and happy to answer any queries we had. The secluded location works well and is connected to the Tea Gardens town centre for all grocery/food needs. We are hoping to be able to come back to the property in the future.

I honestly cannot put into words how beautiful the location of this house is. From the moment we arrived we felt like we were home and welcome. The welcome basket and air con on helped to unpack and settle in and the ability to launch the kayak and boat straight from the backyard made everything so easy! We all loved splashing in the water, searching for crabs and prawns and making sandcastles (especially the dog who loved swimming around!). Dale is a great host and kept in touch during the stay to ensure we had the best holiday possible. We didn't want to leave and will definitely be back!

The home is very tidy and the owner Dale is very thoughtful provided almost everything that you needed. We enjoyed kayaking with pelican and swan, fishing, watched Kangaroo hooping around especially while Sun was rising, was AMAZING experience for our family getaway, we will go back :)

A stunning spot right on the water in a lovely, peaceful neighbourhood. From the time of opening the front door and seeing that stunning outlook, you know it's time to slip off the shoes, open the wine and relax! And that's exactly what we did for 4 nights. We had 2 days of sunshine and warmth - the picnic table on the waters edge was the perfect spot to soak up the rays and enjoy the peace. We then had 2 days of torrential rain - but didn't care one bit as the house was such a lovely, comfortable spot to snuggle up with a good book (and more wine)! The house had everything we needed - very comfortable with plenty of room so you never felt on top of one another. We were lucky enough to see dolphins, black swans, pelicans and the infamous early morning kangaroos which certainly gave our dogs a very good reason to wake us up nice and early!! Also, Frank - the Butcher Bird (it's a Pommie thing - Frank Butcher) - was a twice daily, very friendly visitor who loves to eat a bit of cheese/mince out of your hand. Saw the neighbours doing the same so reckon he's a local legend - he certainly kept us entertained!Communication with Dale was easy - always very responsive and helpful. This was particularly the case when, after our departure, we realised we were flooded in with no way out of Tea Gardens and no way of getting home. A call to Dale and he bailed (ha!) us out with a quick call to LJ Hooker to confirm we could settle in for another night until the floods eased. We were so grateful for this kindness as the prospect of sleeping in the car with 3 dogs and disabled mother wasn't overly appealing. We enjoyed the break so much we've already rebooked for March next year. My advice - book it - you wont' regret it!Tracey, David and Lesley
