June 2010

We had a terrific time in Exmouth and really loved staying at Ocean Breeze - it was perfect for us and I will certainly be recommending it to other Navy people who are heading up. Thank you for all your help and we will definitely be in touch next time we are heading to Exmouth!

Thanks Helen, we had a great holiday in Exmouth. Everthing was easy, just like you said it would be, shops just down the road, house had everything we needed. I really liked the personal touches that our house had, just little things like books and games. It felt like home not a 'holiday house' and we were relaxed from the moment we walked in. Have booked again for next year and will now make it a regular thing. Awesome, thanks. Clariss Markey

Every year we stay in Coral Bay, this year we all felt like a change, and very glad we did. There is so much more to do when you base yourself in Exmouth. We had never explored the Ranges, and we even went mud crabbing up the gulf. So the kids want us to book for next year, same time. Thanks for all your holiday advice Helen, your a mini tourist bureau!

October 2011

Thank you for a great week at Turtle. We loved exploring the area, snorkeling on the reef, enjoying the fishing and the superb relaxed atmosphere Exmouth has. Cars, traffic lights and busy lives have been a real shock to us today in Perth! Our stay at Turtle was great, we met your neighbour and got some great daily fishing tips, the accommodation was clean, comfortable and a great place to relax whilst our kids discussed our in house fishing competition ( the eldest and most competitive lost!) - Thank you! We will be back!

May 2011

The house was great, location great - walking distance to the shops, facilities great, plenty of beds. It actually was perfect as you know my brother also came up for 3 days with wife and his 3 year old son and the yard and perimeter fence were perfect for him to play safely. The extra shower and toilet were a god send! Perfect family home. I would certainly be happy to stay there again.
Service was excellent both before arriving and after when we need a couple of things.

April 2010

We had a great holiday, the place was GREAT!.....very happy. It was very handy being close to the shops, pub etc.
would definately like to book in with you again for next year.

August 2010

I would like to rebook please, this has been a most rejuvenating break. The whales are in and we are catching fish as well!
This is a well loved property. It shows in every detail the owners have added. An unique experience! via text

January 2010

Booking was very easy and efficient, website very easy to follow.
We were led to believe that the house was ‘homely’ and it was. It was very comfortable, we felt right at home as soon as we arrived. The house was clean and welcoming and had the little finishing touches even down to finding a needle and thread. We were nicely surprised when we arrived and preferred it to the previous house we had rented, general consensus of all five of us. It was lovely to have lots of pots, pans, cooking dishes, all available in a well set out, well equipped kitchen. Even though we had a dishwasher in the previous house, we didn’t miss it too much. We all liked Cobia, there was even enough room for the 28’ boat that we had with us. Loved the outdoor area and spent a lot of time out there.
The friends that we travelled with originally planned to go to Coral Bay but after a day visit they were so glad we suggested Exmouth instead, we even looked at properties for sale.
We would not hesitate to stay at Cobia again, but we are hoping to visit Exmouth in the winter months next time so not sure where we will stay as the owners will probably be at home then.
Thanks to you and Geoff for taking the time to drop round before we left, it was nice to meet you both. We all had a great time in Exmouth and it would be hard to pick out one thing that made it the great holiday it was. We are looking forward to the next time.
Take care, cheers.

July 2012

We had an amazing time in the Exmouth area. Such great snorkeling and so many beautiful beaches. Our stay at Oyster was amazing. It is a big beautiful, clean house with everything you could ever want inside. The back yard was glorious too. I would definitely come back and stay in the very same place again! The house was big enough for two families to share which made it totally affordable too (way cheaper than some of the "not so nice" places we stayed for more money) Helen was amazing to book through too. If you are heading to Ningaloo reef and Exmouth I definitely recommend staying there.

May 2010

Stay was great & we will definatly recommend you to friends & the service was fantastic also. So thank you Helen.

November 2012

Thank you for suggesting Turtles as a holiday home, it was fantastic. From the outside, the house looks basic and quite small but what a surprise, the area out the back is amazing, it was like a tropical paradise, we spent hours relaxing in this area, it was a very special holiday, we will be back.

Christmas 2010

May 2013

We greatly appreciate your warm hospitality throughout our short visit to Exmouth. Love love Exmouth.
My little brother got in first to the guest book. He obviously enjoyed his stay.
Nautilus is a perfect location, lovely neighbours, spacious, clean and definitely felt right at home.
We look forward to creating more memories soon.

October 2010

Dear Helen

This was our first trip to Exmouth.

We had a wonderful time,the boys went squidding and saw a whale and her calf up so close they couldn't believe their eyes.

Then we went to Turquoise Bay and snorkled among the beautiful fish just magical.

The Marlin house we stayed in was great it had everything we needed.

My daughter tried the trundle bed and said they were so comfy.

We will be back next year in June-July when its a bit cooler.

Thanks so much

Regards

We really had a great time and the place where we stayed was very convenient, quiet and well equipped. We are already recommending Exmouth as a great place to visit, enjoy beautiful scenery and do great snorkeling at wonderful sea side places.
Thanks also for lending us the sun umbrellas, even if I broke one...

September 2010

Hi Helen. We just had a fabulous sunset whale watch cruise With whale shark and dive!!!!Highly recommended. Saw heaps of whales close up in pod and also a mother teaching her calf to breach- unbelievable!!! My daughter really likes the floral beach bag found in the cupboard. Do you know where she can buy one? oops Got burnt snorkelling at Turquose bay yesterday. Had a fab time though. Kids and I felt like nemo as we followed a loggerhead turtle swimming lazily while many silver fish cleaned it's shell! Off to Coral Bay today with a heavy layer of sunsceen and t shirts- how attractive!!! Li

August 2012

Everything about our stay was great. The service from Helen with the booking was terrific.The accommodation was great with the outdoor bar-b-que area and walking distance to shops also off street parking for the boat.Our time on the water was terrific seeing whales so close to the boat every day even caught a few fish.The locals are so friendly stopping to chat and even got discount fuel at the servo just around the corner.

July 2010

We really loved the Mandu. It had every luxury we could have wanted. Couches were very comfy, kitchen was so well apppointed with everything we could have wanted and we particularly loved the expresso coffee machine. We were hooked on the strong short blacks. We are definitely going to buy one of those machines. We also loved the location and the outlook over the water.

November 2009

We have had a great girls get away. Our house 'Marlin' was perfect. Had absolutely everything we needed, especially the absence of children and husbands! I dont know why we havent been on holidays to Exmouth before, it has the BEST beaches and diving. Exmouth was sunny as always, and the vino was flowing. Bring on next year and thanks for all your help in getting us old chooks organised.

May 2010

The holiday and the house were fantastic. The winds were kind to us except for
one day and by that stage we were a bit beached out. The whale shark trip was
amazing we saw 16 whale sharks that day..an all time record so far!
We stopped at Jurien Bay on way up and at Denham on the way back for a couple
of days.The fish Co-op received our business as did the plantations at Carnavon.
Thanks for the tip..fruit and vegs were outrageous up there.

The owners of Turtle are to be commended on the amazing watering system and the
associated garden. It was so nice to come home after a day on the beach and
relax in our oasis with a beer or glass of wine. 10 out of 10 for Rusty..the
COLD beer fridge. The house was immaculate when we arrived and suited us perfectly.

Thank you again for your help...it certainly made our holiday very memorable.
Cheers,
Chris

April 2013

thanks Helen
The accommodation was perfect.We had such a good time in Exmouth and of course with the house being comfortable and in the setting of the marina the sunsets by the pool overlooking the water made it very relaxing.We hope to again holiday in Exmouth next year so I have no hesitation in using Ningaloo Reef Holidays for our accommodation needs.

Thanks for the email. Driftwood was perfect for us. Would be happy to stay there again. Also appreciated the easy contact with you to make this last minute booking happen.

October 2010

We had an absolutly fantastic time at the Humpback. I forgot to write in the visitors book. It was a pleasure to stay at such a beautiful property. The kitchen was A1 couldnt have asked for a better place to spend a week. Might have to make it two weeks next year.!!

Yes we know abouth the moring the kids watched the men drop the cement block into the water, quite a sight.

I think we can safley say we will be back again many times.

July 2012

On behalf of all 9 of us that stayed in Jurabi, I would like to say a huge THANK YOU for providing a holiday house which contributed to an amazing holiday had by all!!
The house was absolutely perfect, everything we required was supplied and the porch was the perfect setting to end the day!

September 2010

So thankyou so much for such a comfortable stay in Exmouth - we loved the house, it had everything we needed.

April 2011

Dear Helen
Just writing to let you know what a wonderful time we are having in Exmouth and how much we are enjoying staying at "Turtle"
You have thought of everything - our BBQs on the decking at the back have been terrific, the beach umbrellas have been invaluable as we have visited all the local beaches. The folder of information has been really useful as we have planned our days. We have snorkelled the reef, swam with the whale sharks ( 4 including a whopper - 8 metre ) Yardy Creek boat ride and even met the locals at the pool. Overall we are enjoying every minute and just wanted to express our thanks.
Kind regards
Bev, Cheryl, Jan & Nola

November 2009

We loved our house Turtle, thanks Helen. Very private and relaxing, that back verandah is a sanctuary, a tropical oasis. Anyway, four days wasnt enough! We were just winding down and our break was over. So much to do in Exmouth we barely scratched the surface...so much of nothing I mean!
Didnt catch any fish this time, but next year we will be on the money, next year we will actually go out on the water. Great holiday, and thanks again.

July 2012

Thanks, we had a great time staying at Jurabi. It was perfect for our extended family. We didn't want to be separated and it was heaps of fun all being together all the time in such comfortable accommodation. We found that the house had everything we could possibly need and would recommend it to anyone - and will plan to come again maybe next year?

May 2013

Finishing the journey with you in Ningaloo Reef was a good decision, the icing on the cake. Not only did they have an amazing time with you at Ningaloo Reef. The accommodation was brilliant, the welcome was very warm with the house offering plenty of space for my tired crew to chill out at the end of a day's filming. The accommodation and the arrangements you helped us with worked out amazing for us. The crew loved Ningaloo Reef, it's beauty, weather and people make it special, truly a hidden gem in Western Australia to British tourists.

It is never easy making arrangements for a crew when they travel to the other side of the world to work on an exhausting shoot but your help and guidance from the beginning, when we first swapped e-mails, was fantastic and a wonderful help to me - truly a 5 star plus service. Thank you does not seem to show enough gratitude in what you helped us achieve. Please pass on our deepest thanks to all that helped us to make this possible. We are all looking forward to seeing the rushes and I am sure that we would be able to make available to you some rushes for your website if required.

September 2010

Hi Helen,

We had lots of fun at Humpback. a lot of thought had gone into making it really comfortable. If the owners want to ever sell...let us know! We would love to buy this place it is heaven,

October 2010

We were very happy with our Turtle house and would certainly stay again --- we have you on our list for future reference :) and will mention you to others who maybe travelling that direction.

So thank you again

Just wanted to give you feedback on our stay at 11a King Place. Our family rented the house for 2 weeks and we found the house great & on our next holiday we will defiantly be renting it again. The house is an oldie but a goodie in a quiet location with plenty of room to move as it sleeps up to 10 people; we had 4 adults and 1 child and never got in each others way. The house had everything you wanted and needed. The great part of the house is that the bedrooms and living areas are far apart & having a very active 20 month old son the adults could still sleep while our son was making noise in the living area. My sister in law & I enjoyed our wine & cheese afternoons sitting outside overlooking small water views watching the boys cook the fish on the BBQ and watching my son ride his bike on the fully enclosed patio or playing in the sandpit in the back yard. The boys pest part of the house was that it had plenty of room to park the boat and had a deep freezer to store all the fish they caught.
Exmouth is a beautiful place and I know I will visit again soon.

Thanks again,

October 2010

We've just returned from Exmouth and we wanted to thank you for a great stay. The house ("Turtle") was perfect for our requirements, and we made the most of our time there. The house was beautifully clean and we hope you were happy with the way we left it. We will be happy to recommend your organisation to anybody we know who is going north.

I meant to leave a note on the notice board for the cleaning lady thanking her for not only her cleaning efforts, but also for managing an early entry and late exit for us.

Thanks for everything.

May 2010

It was a great stay and as Reece has said we will recommend you to others as there is a big difference between you and the main accommodation people in town. Well be back in November for another holiday.
