Mandu Villa Coming Soon!

The owners are putting the finishing touches to our newest home to the Ningaloo Reef  Holidays lineup. It is going to be a wonderful home filled with brand new furniture, luxury leather lounges, and an A1 quality fit-out.

Situated on the canals at the new Marina complex, Mandu Villa is only 100m to the boat ramp for boaties, the Novotel Ningaloo Resort for foodies, and the Town beach for …anyone who likes a morning walk and a dip in the water!

The large verandah overlooks the waters of the canal and the gorges to the distance, a perfect spot for a cookup of the days catch or a chilled vino after a long day at the beach or on the water fishing. Perhaps its just a freshly made cappucino you need, your own espresso machine is right there in your luxury kitchen.

This superb home sleeps 6 comfortably in 3 king size beds that unzip to make 6 singles should you need to expel the snorer!

Exmouth never looked so good as it does from your accommodation at Mandu Villa.



Accommodation in Exmouth at a Premium!

This month I thought I would let you in on some Ningaloo Reef  Holiday accommodation booking tips.

1. If you have an inkling of when you would like to book, email me as soon as you can. So much time is wasted planning a journey that may never happen.

2. Book your accommodation and flights roughly at the same time. Dont book flights for peak dates without securing a home first and vice versa.

3. If you have a pet with you, plan up to 6 months in advance. Your choices are even narrower.

4. Easter bookings – enquire around November the year before. School Holidays – plan 4-6 months in advance.

5. If you wish to house more than 8 occupants you need alot of plan ahead notice. There is limited accommodation in town that will sleep more than 8-10 in one home.

6. Dont forget to let me know how many occupants and what dates you are requiring. Also helpful to know if you are towing a boat, what size.

Remember…quality holiday homes in Exmouth are at a Premium. Book ahead for the best homes for your holiday in Exmouth and the Ningaloo Reef.



Happy Holiday Whalers

Just want to wish Liz and Paul (the owners of Whalers) a wonderful holiday in Japan this February.

Whalers Restaurant is our favourite Exmouth eatery at Ningaloo Reef  Holidays. We recommend it to all our guests to have at least one meal there whilst they are holidaying in town.

We thought it important to let you know that Whalers will be closed for the month of February whilst all the staff have a well earned break.

Happy Holiday guys and thanks for a great year or wonderful food and great service!

February Accommodation Discounts – Ningaloo Reef

February is one of the BEST months to holiday in Exmouth on the Coral Coast. The Ningaloo Reef is crystal clear perfect, the beaches deserted, fishing pentiful, and the town is quiet.

Yes it is hot, but with all our homes fully airconditioned, and the cooling waters of the beach not far away, who cares!?

We are offering a free night with any booking of 4 nights or more for the month of February 2010. That is potentially a saving of nearly $200 a night in some homes.

With 6 homes, ready and waiting for you to book, right now is the perfect time for a trip to the Ningaloo Reef and Exmouth. Take a day trip to Coral Bay, or a fishing charter to the Murion Islands, or snorkel at Torquoise Bay.

By the way it is turtle season….There is lots happening on our beaches at night!



Christmas in Exmouth and mangos!

Well here we are again, faced with the New Year and another 12 months of joy ahead of us.  It has been a perfect Christmas this year in Exmouth, not too hot and just enough people in town for it to be interesting but not crowded.

Accommodation has been at a premium with all our homes fully booked this year for the Christmas and January break. Thankyou to our guests for joining us up in the glorious north west.

The cyclone looked threatening but barely blew a puff our way. The flies were a little more than in previous years but compared to our friends in the south west, we have nothing to complain about.

I have managed to get to the beach as often as I can, the tan is looking good, but the waistline is expanding! If I see one more ripe juicy mango I will scream!! What! You haven ‘t been gorging on mangoes this summer? Shame…come to Exmouth next year for Christmas and you will be.

Big tip! Sea Breeze, one of our houses at ( 3 Tautog St) has a huge mango tree in the back yard. Ssshh…dont tell anyone.



Coral Bay or Exmouth?

Lately I have had conversations with potential guests enquiring as to whether they should base their Ningaloo Reef holiday experience in either Coral Bay or Exmouth. Two trains of thought here.

Yes Coral bay is gorgeous, and the reef is ‘just there’. Its a one street town and with that comes all the charm of a small remote community, on a glorious beach, in the best state in Australia.

But, because it is so small, there is little to no accommodation available. Only the very organised, booking many years in some cases for prime spots, have the opportunity to stay in Coral Bays’ very limited accommodation.

So if you are hell bent of basing your reef exploration in Coral Bay then BOOK EARLY, very early.

However, Exmouth may be another 150km away, but with a little less forward planning, you can find accommodation relatively easily. Obviously peak periods sell quickly, you may need to think ahead 6 months. But the choice is far greater than in Coral Bay.

You can also get to the reef very easily from Tantabiddi (38km from town) or Bundegi ( 13km from town) via the boat ramps.

Choice is everything. But planning your holiday often years in advance can prove tricky!



New Holiday Homes in Exmouth

Frangipanis in Bloom

Frangipanis in Bloom

I am very excited to announce that we have very recently welcomed some new homes to our group of happy holiday home owners. Now you will have even more choice when booking your holiday in Exmouth with us.

Everything from a simple cottage to luxury accommodation on the marina. For all price points and all tastes, our prices have never been better for a great fishing or family holiday on the Coral Coast.

Over the next few days the new properties will be popping up on the website www.ningaloo.net or you can jump ahead of the queue and make an enquiry with Helen now. Some availability for prime dates still exist.

Look out for Mandu Villa, Coral Place and the cute Frangipani House. All new to Ningaloo Reef Holidays.

The Ningaloo Reef and Exmouth awaits!
