Bluewater Cottage - town and beach at your door

Bluewater Cottage is perfectly positioned near Dunsborough town centre, and only a stones throw away from the pristine white sands of beautiful Geographe Bay beach.

There's plenty of space for the whole family, with 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, a large backyard, and an outdoor entertaining space perfect for barbeques.

There is a playground close by and the water is nice and shallow - very safe and protected swimming, especially for young children.

Bluewater Cottage is your base to explore the magnificent Margaret River Wine Region, catch a few waves, or simply tune out and relax.

Great Location
This is a traditional family holiday cottage that is really well sited to explore Dunsborough. It was clean and tidy and exactly as shown . Unusually, you have to bring your own sheets and towels or hire them from the laundry in town .

Blue Water Cottage
The cottage was a good size and in a great location. We had small dogs, so it was a perfect distance to the beach, just five minutes. The outside area was great for the little dogs too. There is a possum who likes to jump on the roof in the wee hours of the morning, but we got used to it after a night. Overall, a great stay for the price.

Okay house with great location
The house was very cute and was in a great location. We had to bring our own linens (sheets, tea towels, hand towels, bath towels) which was listed in the description and from the owners but thought I should mention in the review as could be a hassle for bigger groups. The house is a bit on the older side but still cute. Kitchen utensils are a bit sparse and the frying pan they supply is too large for the induction stove so might want to bring your own. Queen beds are comfortable and TV worked well. Overall, a good property.

Dunsborough weekend
The house was fantastic, very open and bright inside with an incredible back yard. Extremely close to the main town while still being quite secluded. I'll definitely stay again when I'm back in Dunsborough. Highly recommend staying there.

Great Convenient Spot
Great location, easily walkable to the beach, pub, cafes, shops, golf course etc. Back yard was a great spot to catch some breakfast sunshine. Do get a bit of road noise (and possums on the roof haha), something to keep in mind if you're a light sleeper. So much space to spread out and relax. Our furry friend loved it too!

Perfect property in a perfect location.
Stayed at this property for 2 nights during a recent trip to Dunsborough. It's a really short walk to the main strip in town and in a quiet area. The house was big enough for 5 of us adults and property was super clean! Would definitely stay here again and can't recommend highly enough. Thanks for having us guys!
