About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Very comfortable, air conditioned, WIFI, downstairs unit located a few...

Geckos is situated in a quiet residential area close to the Macleay River and the boat ramp, a short stroll to The Tavern where you can enjoy lunch or dinner or only a 5 minute drive to the centre of town, restaurants and the beach. This two bedroom, downstairs Villa is tastefully furnished and air conditioned ensuring you have a very comfortable stay.

The spacious main bedroom is a relaxing space opening out onto the patio. There is an open plan living area that also spills out to the undercover patio. A great spot to enjoy a quiet BBQ (Electric BBQ) after a day of sun and surf. The living area has a large LCD TV & DVD and WIFI. The kitchen is modern and fully self contained with everything you require to ensure you have a lovely holiday. The laundry is located in a cupboard in the bathroom and has a top loader washing machine.

As Geckos is located a short stroll down to the river, be sure to pack your fishing rods and sit back and relax on the river bank or down at the boat ramp while you do a spot of fishing. There is also a park for the children to enjoy.

Bring your pushbike and take a ride along the river, watch the dolphins as they play along the waters edge. Or take a ride into town. For the fishing family this property is ideal as there is plenty of space for parking cars and boats.

Access to Geckos is from Dilberang as this unit is located downstairs from the main residence.

Please note that sheets and towels are not supplied.

Whether you love fishing, swimming, snorkelling, surfing or taking in a bit of history at the Trial Bay Gaol or Smoky Cape Lighthouse, this is a great place to escape and is the ideal family retreat by the beach perfect for year-round swimming.

South West Rocks is popular as a holiday destination for its variety of beaches including Horseshoe Bay, Main Beach, Little Bay, Gap Beach, North Smoky and Smoky Beach. Beginners and experienced surfers will both find waves to suit them or take a surf lesson with Trent Munro Surf Academy.

Fish Rock Cave, 2 km offshore, is one of the best cave dives in the country, a 125-m passage through the centre of a small island, with an amazing variety of marine life including grey nurse sharks, turtles and spotted eagle rays.

The area has a rich heritage set on cliffs high above the sea, Trial Bay Gaol was built in the 1880s to house prisoners and then as an internment camp for Germans and Austrians living in Australia during World War 11. Smoky Cape Lighthouse is one of the oldest, and tallest lighthouses in NSW.

We know you will enjoy your visit to South West Rocks and look forward to hearing from you.

Geckos Review

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Accommodation is very nice, however the noise from footsteps coming from the person staying above as well as her loud telephone conversations were off-putting.

Close to nature at geckos

We had a very enjoyable time. Lovely decor, very clean and everything you need. Situated in a residential area but close to the river for fishing, boating and walking, also near to the River Tavern. We had a lovely meal there.

Nice spot near the tavern

We stayed for a few weeks and was very comfortable, The main bedroom is a good size, the only negative was no wifi and hardly any phone service. Overall was a great stay.
