Lovely quiet position. Clean as a whistle. Really well set out. Comfortable. Only downside was lack of internet access although this was solved with wifi tethering to mobile phone. Really enjoyable.

Fantastic beach house

Clean, tidy, comfortable and fully appointed. Close to the beach, cafes and restaurants. We had a fantastic time and cannot wait to go back for another few days away. We cannot recommend Orford Beach House highly enough for a stress free getaway.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The best thing was the view of Maria Island from the back deck and main bedroom window. Late check out is also appreciated. Ice cream shop (Sweets) across the road was excellent to discover just before closing time. The Orford Beach House is well set up and would be a great place to stay for a week. We only had two nights. I would come back again with more time next time.

Was okay. Bit weird, a lot of spare furniture around the place. Power tripped and ended up having to figure it out ourselves as we didn't get a response for ages.

This house was a step back in time to lazy, carefree days by the sea. Simple and refreshing. The property was spotlessly clean. The view out the back was beautiful
