An Amazing Experience
We hadn't been away as a family for a while, and this was the perfect property and also a beautiful last trip with our elderly dog. The host Tamara is super friendly and communicative, checked in a few times with local recommendations. Clean, comfortable and cosy. The heated pool was also a LOT of fun. Highly recommended.

Perfect beach holiday stay
A group of friends and myself stayed at Saltwater Poolside for a low-key schoolies trip and we couldn’t have chosen a better home to stay in. I say home because the house indeed felt like our home and it was a very comfortable, stress free trip that we will all remember! Tamara was always welcoming and communication was great. The care she takes to ensure her guests enjoy their stay was evident both in this and in the beautiful, warm space she provides —I’d recommend her properties to anyone looking for a beach getaway!

My favourite home away from home
I would like to express my appreciation for your awesome hosting! Your service topped all expectations and everything in your property is perfect. The pool!!!!! No words can express the serenity and relaxed vibe it provides. Also level of hygiene, the set up and all the extras provided, made your holiday house, my favourite home away from home! On arriving we loved the local information provided in the catalogue, complimentary basket of snacks, extra information provided daily via text, also the late check out offered!!! Cant fault this place at all and cant think of anything extra we needed. We will definitely be back.

Home away from home
Our family had the most wonderful time away together at this lovely property. Just what we needed after a busy term of work and school. Tamara is an exemplary host - informative, kind and a terrific communicator. The kids spent hours in the heated pool each day, and was well worth the extra dollars to have the gas heating switched on. As a family it was fab to have such a large L-shaped sofa so we could all come together and watch movies. Our groodle Frankie was so at home from the start. We enjoyed some lovely meals and Uno card game sessions at the ample dining table. Modern, functional kitchen that made cooking and cleaning up a breeze. Comfy beds, pillows and crisp linen ensured a restful nights each day after exploring Rye’s beach and pier. All in all a brilliant stay away, and we look forward to our return down the track. Highly recommend!!

Great house, great location
The owner of the house was lovely and communicated with us during our stay. She was nice enough to let us stay and check out late which allowed us to relax and use the beautiful pool. The house overall is amazing, we were welcomed by some delicious treats. House fits enough people, there was 7 of us and the rooms were big and comfortable. It was located in a good area, with the beach so close by! Tamara is a great host, we were very thankful for everything she did! Recommend to anyone planning on visiting rye, it’s so close to the hot springs too. House had a homey feeling and we loved everything about it. Every essential for a little getaway was there.

Little slice of paradise
Saltwater Poolside is a simply stunning home and the perfect getaway for a lovely weekend away with the family. From booking to checkout, our end to end experience was 6 stars. Tamara is such a gracious and lovely host, and her excellent communication and updates meant our stay was completely stress free. We knew exactly what to expect, zero unwelcome surprises and Tamara was readily available with answers to any question - including sharing tips about local dining and activity options. The home is beautiful, bright and completely private. It’s well laid out, and has everything you could possibly need. It’s also truly dog friendly - our 6 month old border collie pup had the time of his life! It was a beautiful way to spend my birthday and just felt like a home away from home. We cannot wait to rebook and come back to enjoy this beautiful home again!

Genuine dog friendly property
This is the most dog friendly property we have had the pleasure of staying at. High fences, doggy door, dog bowls, toys and treats. The pool was fantastic and I'm so glad we opted for gas heating as it made swimming on 18 degrees days enjoyable! The house is a leisurely 15 minute walk to the supermarket and in a quiet neighbourhood. Property was very clean and tidy as well. Our dog Rosie loved it here and was so settled in on the first day. Will definitely be coming back for another stay
