Satwell stay
The property was extremely well set up, with thoughtful touches. It was stylish, clean and also functional. The place had everything we needed and we really enjoyed our stay. The hosts were very helpful with local knowledge and suggestions on where to sightsee, eat and take our dog for plays. So we’re very happy to go back and stay on our return trip.

Absolute Bliss
Our family of 4 and precious pooch enjoyed our stay at Amber’s. Wayne and Mardi were so welcoming and attentive from the moment we arrived. They have created a haven for people and their pets alike. Beautiful decor, comfortable beds, clean and impeccably maintained. We spent a lot of our time in the outdoor living area. We enjoyed our time immensely and look forward to returning one day.

Perfect stay, lovely home
Ambers beach house was exactly as advertised. The home had everything need for a comfortable stay. This was a perfect stopover for my husband and I. Wayne greeted us and showed us around which was a lovely touch. Amber’s is pet friendly and both our cavoodles enjoyed the yard to run around even while it was raining. A continental breakfast was provided which was delicious, a yummy loaf, berries, homemade muesli, honey and yoghurt. The home was beautifully presented, very clean with a comfortable bed. I would highly recommend, Mardi and Wayne’s place to stay snd explore the area.

A stunning oasis
We had the most delightful time at Ambers. Wayne, the host, could not have been more welcoming and helpful. The place itself is stunning - from the fully fenced garden ideal for dogs - to the beautiful bathrooms and outdoor, undercover area. They have thought of everything. The extra touches of delicious food for us and the pooches were special. And all within minutes of the gorgeous town. We loved it!

I booked Ambers beach house last minute for a spontaneous trip with very few K9 friendly options remaining. Now, I can’t wait to return for a longer visit. Ambers is beautifully decorated and is both cozy and luxurious. We were provided with a lovely breakfast and THAT BATHTUB. Highly recommended.

Great place to stay in Sawtell!
Mardi and Wayne were welcoming hosts and their property was beautifully presented and spotless, but with lots of personal touches. They had thought of everything! Our room was very comfortable (including the bed), had a large modern bathroom and included some thoughtful local breakfast items in the fridge. There is also a large separate sitting area with a great selection of books and open fire, as well as an outdoor kitchen/ eating area. Sawtell is a great little town - not too far to walk but an easy drive with off street parking provided. Would return!
