Bay 10 Accommodation

Bay 10 Accommodation

10/10 Excellent
"Self check in and check out was very easy, with clear instructions and the apartment and accompanying view were fabulous! The designated parking for our unit was situated right next to the footpath & main road and was a little disconcerting - we checked on our car a few times during our 3 night stay. Overall, we would certainly recommend the accommodation though, had everything we needed and was very comfortable. Having free access to Netflix was a lovely bonus and the wifi was excellent."

"We loved the villa’s prime location on the ridge of Greenery Farm—perfect for sunrise, sunset, and stargazing. The three-sided glass walls meant we could soak in those spectacular views without even stepping outside. It was a quiet and wonderfully happy stay, though sadly only for one night. We missed our chance to see the galaxy—next time, we'll definitely stay longer."
