Villa Jol’ Shoal Bay w/king beds - 5 min from the beach

Newly renovated boutique 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom accommodation located in the heart of Shoal Bay. Villa Jol is the perfect spot for families, couples and girls weekends.

> 5 min walk to Shoal Bay Beach, cafes & restaurants
> 10 min walk to Zenith Beach
> 2 bicycles, beach umbrella and beach cart available
> free wifi & streaming services (Netflix, Stan, Disney+ & Kayo Sports)
> comfortable king size beds
> on-site parking

Wedged between two stunning beaches, Villa Jol’ is conveniently located only a short 5 minute walk to the shores of beautiful Shoal Bay beach, local restaurants and cafes and only a 10 minute walk to popular surf beach - Zenith. A number of bush walking trails are also on Villa Jol's door step. It is the perfect base to soak up the magic Shoal Bay has to offer.

Filled with beautiful furnishings and light-filled living spaces, you will have the entire place to yourself including access to two bicycles, beach umbrella and beach cart. Each bedroom has a king size bed with luxury French flax linens and high quality bamboo sheets included. Nespresso coffee pod machine, basic toiletries and towels are also included. Every detail has been thought of that will make you feel right at home.

Our favourite eating options in Shoal Bay are Shoal Bay Country Club, Atmos, Mod Thai and Gianni's. Just a short drive away, the Little Nel, In House Kitchen and Inner Light Tea Rooms are great for breakfast or lunch. Little Beach Boathouse, Rick Stein's at Bannisters and The Anchorage are also incredible lunch and dinner options.

If you prefer a relaxing night in, we recommend sunset drinks and a BBQ on the balcony taking in the beautiful water views followed by a movie on the 60 inch smart TV.

Other things to note:
Please be respectful of our neighbours and keep noise to a minimum after 10pm.
Beach towels are not included.
Porta-cot and highchair are available upon request free of charge. Guests are required to supply linen for this cot and must be set up by guests

Great spot for a little getaway. We booked last minute and communication with Jemma was great. The outside of the property is a little underwhelming but once inside the apartment, it's been BEAUTIFULLY decorated and styled. It is walking distance down to the shops & restaurants but if you have an issue with steep hills, you may struggle with the walk back up. However, we took advantage of the courtesy bus from the fabulous Shoal Bay Country Club which brought us back up the hill after a great night out! The Smart TV meant we could stream our favourite shows when the weather turned rainy one afternoon. And the comfy couch made for a good napping spot too. We would happily go back and stay again.

Wonderful stay!
Shoal Bay was a wonderful place to settle in and call home for a month. There is so much to see and do in this beautiful area, there's no shortage of beaches, biking & hiking trails. Villa Jol' is in a great location, it's close enough to main street & the beach but far enough away to be peaceful. The home backs on the Tomaree National Park. Brett and Gemma were wonderful hosts, providing us with prompt responses to questions or concerns and great advice for our journey up the coast. Thank you for sharing your home!

The property is in an amazing location, easy to get to the beach and local restaurants and bars, but hard walk back up the hill. The apartment was clean and spacious, and has everything you need. Definitely would stay here again. Thank you

Perfect family apartment for beach holidays
The apartment was beautifully renovated and so much thought was put into the amenities which made our stay so easy and relaxing. Location is excellent. Jemma was easy to communicate with and check in and out was no hassle. We even forgot a few items and they helped arrange pickup. Beds and lounge were comfy, and the little extras such as beach cart, high chair and cot, board games and even the little goodies left made our stay SO much more comfortable and enjoyable!! Thank you Jemma and Brett.
