Great Location & House
Great location, easy walk to beaches and bike tracks. House is beautifully designed and styled and pool entertained kids at the end of the day. Hosts are easy to deal with and were responsive before, during and after our stay. We will definitely be back! Thanks

Spacious and comfortable
My family are I were very impressed with the Chalet. Indoors, the property had plenty of space for our family of 11 plus an infant. Supplies such as herbs, oils, coffee and foil etc helped a lot in the kitchen. All 3 smart TVs. There was plenty to do outdoors. Barbeque, pool, firepit, swing and grassy area for the children to run around. Would definitely recommend this place to others and would also love to come back here again when it's warmer. Thanks to the host Ziona who was super responsive to my emails and phone calls.

Loved our Easter Getaway at The Chalet
What a beautiful house to stay in, and Catherine Hill Bay is such a lovely spot. The pool and deck area was divine and we all loved sitting around the firepit after dinner every night chatting and catching up.
