Ruan B.
A nice sea outlook and a good place for a family holiday. The property itself felt a bit uncomfortable because the living area is small.

Great for the whole family. Walk across the road to Thompson beach to explore the rock pools and shoreline, then head back for a swim in the clubhouse pool.

The view is incredible, and the location feels just right. My sister has lived at The Beacon for about 2 or 3 years, and I've visited her several times. It's a real pleasure to be there, and it feels extremely safe.

I spent plenty of the holiday relaxing by the pool at The Beacon. The place was clean, peaceful, and comfortable, right across the road from Thompsons Beach at 92 Ocean Dr, Shaka's Rock, Dolphin Coast, 4399. Salt Cafe and The Hippie shop are both a short walk away and lovely. We had a great experience and a super holiday 🍻🍾🥂

The gardens are gorgeous, and there's a nice pool and tennis court. The whole place is private, secure, and really well looked after.
