"Sunblest was the perfect beach pad for a weekend getaway. Sublime beach location. Stylish accommodation. Fantastic attention to detail. Already looking to book again - a long weekend is simply not long enough at Sunblest! Sophisticated serenity!"
SAM, FEBRUARY 2011

"Absolutely fantastic house, extremely comfortable, very thoughtfully stocked, gorgeous pool ... we had such a relaxing holiday. Truly superb. Fantastic quiet location, however still very convenient to local shopping area/pub as well. Suffolk Park has a lovely feel about it, very friendly, lovely locals. Overall, I couldn't rate this house more highly ... we truly loved it."
MARGO, JANUARY 2011

"As each reviewer has indicated this holiday home is something special. "How good is this house" was the common catch cry from the parents each night as we enjoyed a glass of wine after the kids had gone to bed. My advice would be look no further, book away. Sunblest offers it all. Enjoy"
DAVID , DECEMBER 2010

"Sunblest is one of the most amazing holiday houses you could ever hope to find. It has everything you could want, space, comfort, pool (with the occasional visiting crab), private path to Tallows Beach and all modern comforts. Luxurious beds, each with their own ensuite ensures privacy. We also had visits from kookaburras and blue tongued lizards which the kids loved. Its within walking distance to the Suffolk Pub which became ���our local��� , a supermarket and delicious bakery. All in all, a fantastic holiday house and destination. Highly recommended."
BROOKE , DECEMBER 2010

"I don't think I've ever turned up to holiday accommodation before and found that the online photos didn't do it justice. But Sunblest definitely exceeded all our expectations - it's more spacious and better equipped than we could have hoped for, with designer fittings, an open layout and tons of room to spread out. We had 6 adults and 6 kids in our group - ranging from 18 months to 8 years, and everyone had a brilliant time. There were even two big toy boxes and a heap of pool toys! We'll be back - next time for two weeks!"
SALLY, NOVEMBER 2010

"We had 10 of us staying at Sunblest and the property is beautiful and we would highly recommend to other people. The facilities, beds, all of the cooking equipment was top shelf and made the stay very enjoyable. "
NICHOLAS , NOVEMBER 2010

"We spent a week at Sunblest in October 2010, and what a blessed week it was! The house is everything a beach house should be, super comfortable, tastefully decorated, and only steps away from the beach. We loved lounging by the pool and gazing up into the trees, and when worn out from our strenuous days of eating, swimming and walking on the beach, we retired to choose from a great selection of dvds and games. Although there were eight adults and one child in our party, the house is so spacious that we never felt like we were on top of each other. All the little details have been thought of, from the comprehensive house and local area guide, to the little toiletries in the bathroom, to the beach towels, so you don't have to lug your own along. Sunblest definitively ticks all the boxes. "
FAITH, NOVEMBER 2010

"Absolutely stunning....but still manages to maintain functionality and simplicity. We had a group of 11 with 5 kids aged 3 - 7 and the house was perfectly suited. Everything is top quality, there are easy to read instructions provided for every appliance, all light switches are labelled, basically this house is just so easy to live in while you concentrate on having a nice relaxing holiday!! The massive and very well-equipped kitchen is perfect for cooking up a storm, the huge open-plan kitchen/dining/lounge area is a great to relax and chat or play one of the provided board games, the media room has a huge selection of DVDs for young and old and the pool is fantastic complete with outdoor shower and tap at the back fence to rinse your feet after a lovely walk on the beach. I cannot fault this absolutely beautiful house, a privilege to stay in!"
Joanne, September 2010

"The first 3 words I said when I got there was WOW, WOW, WOW, it is bigger than the photo's make it appear, and the layout allowed for our big group to comfortably fit all together ir each find our own space. The owners have thought of everything, the kitchen was fully stocked with everything you could want & more! We enjoyed the Wii & board game supplied and don't forget your ipod that can be hooked up in every room! I almost didn't write a review because I don't want too many people to know about this peice of paradise and have it booked out forever. Thanks for a perfect weekend and we look forward to coming back again & again!"
Kym, July 2010

"Truly amazing property that is ideally set up for families or larger groups wanting space and privacy. The property backs onto a beautiful and expansive beach that you will never want to leave. Thoroughly recommend Sunblest. "
Jane, June 2010

"Thank you so much. We had such a great time and the house was more than accommodating for the 10 adults and 2 kids that stayed. You have seriously thought of everything. We will be back!"
Megan, June 2010

"A divine location - and absolutely stunning house! It looks amazing on the web pics, but it is even more gorgeous in real life!! Too many brilliant details (house and surrounds) to mention without making this an essay, so you'll just have to go there to EXPERIENCE Sunblest Heaven!!"
Libby, March 2010

"I sought far and wide, from Port Douglas to Byron Bay to find a house that would accomplish a number of things for my 50th Birthday. Not only a big birthday but one I was very much looking forward to sharing with a very special group of friends from as far away as Melbourne to Maryborough. The house had to be in an area where friends could do their own thing, ie go to a cafe for great coffee, perhaps lunch by the water, surfing at one of Australia's greatest beaches, or just strolling and window shopping in some fabulous boutiques, a house big enough so people would not trip over each other and close to the beach with a pool - Byron Bay and SunBlest had it all in spades. The house proved to be the central glue that awed and impressed everyone. It had masses of room with a number of people to either be together or a quiet moment of solitude. The amenities were fabulous and luxurious. One of the things that did impress all was the thought that went into supplying the house basic groceries. The small things that you only need a little of for a week, such as - coffee, washing up powder, foil & cling wrap, the complimentary shampoos and conditioners etc. (With many more but far too many for me to mention here). As well the well stocked DVD cupboard, the pool toys (very handy) books and magazines, games etc. All well thought out and put to good use. However the biggest impression and commented on by all - the quality of the kitchenware, all first class. Usually when you rent a holiday home there is never enough for what you need and whatever is there is very second rate. Some may think that mindless holiday makers would just abuse such quality, however quite the opposite happened. All my friends are mature and discerning folk that appreciated everything in the house and treated it with the utmost respect and 'AWE'. So thank you for building such a lovely home and I look forward to hopefully spending another break there. "

"Sunblest is a luxurious, modern family friendly house with a beautiful sparkling pool and a private path to Tallows Beach. The house is spacious enough that you never suffered from lack of privacy or the chance to get away from the rest of the family for uninterrupted reading and relaxing time. The children were constantly entertained if they did not feel like a swim they played Wii in the media room or watched a movie on the big screen. It is a short 5 min walk to Suffolk Park shops, where you will find the pub a supermarket and the best bakery. The owners were easy to contact and happy to accommodate any requests, they have designed the perfect holiday house. It was the one of the most relaxing holidays we have ever had and I look forward to booking the house again for next year. "
Zoe, March 2010

"Absolutely wonderful house. The location is really good too, just out of the hectic Byron Bay, but there are shops and a pub down that road that is more than adequate. The house is set up really well and there is enough space for 4 couples to stay very comfortably. This place is a dream to stay in for a holiday. The pool and beach are fantastic. A very magic property!"
Jackie, March 2010

"***WOW*** This house exceeded all our expectations, the moment we walked through the front door it took our breath away. The photo's on the internet do not do it justice. The attention to detail is second to none, they have thought of everything. We will definitely be back. "
Jane, February 2010

"This house is amazing. We didn't want to leave. It is the complete luxury holiday. Plenty of private areas, great open spaces and also on the beach. It is close enough to Byron to enjoy what it has to offer, but once you get to this beautiful new home, you won't want to go anywhere. Sensational. Thanks. "
Doug, January 2010

"We had a great time at this sensational house when we stayed. The living areas are big, with space for more than 1 family. The kitchen is wonderful for cooking big meals. The beach is only a 2 minute walk through the dunes. Swimming in the pool is great too. Just down the road is a bottle shop and small grocery store with everything you need. Byron city centre is a 10 minute drive away. The really nice thing about the house, is when you are there, you have no reason to go anywhere else. Enjoy!"
Mark, January 2010

"My family and I had a marvellous time running through the dunes to Tallows Beach each morning for our wake-up swim, then lying by the pool all afternoon. It was sublime. The children especially enjoying the fully equipped media room for a little space away to enjoy the company of friends. This allowed the grown-ups time in the upstairs open air room for a quiet sundowner, listening to the waves with interesting conversation. The accommodation was clean, modern and very very stylish. Like stepping into our own private glossy holiday. "
RS Baker, January 2010

"My girls and I had a fabulous time at the house. I absolutely love the place and think you've done a great job. It's beautifully laid out with a lot of attention to the small stuff which I really like. The things I really really liked: * multiple living areas accommodating - great for big groups * private outdoor area upstairs - I loved this area. A perfect place to escape and read a book. * loved the double showers - great with kids. * the hand held shower at the back gate - perfect for sandy feet. * having the side gates. * loved all the art, especially the photography. * I really liked all the furniture. The sofas and swivel chairs were very comfortable. * the large pull-door to separate the living area from downstairs bedrooms - helped to block on noise at nap times for kids. "

"Definitely a five star beach house. Top shelf all the way! Very slick large house in a perfect beach front location. Highly recommended, especially if you appreciate modern architecture & design. Enjoy. ...."
