Sep 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Awesome location, a stones throw from the beach but private enough for peace. Well equipped, clean and comfortable with helpful hosts who are quick to respond. Would highly recommend and happily stay again. ##### Claire J. Stayed 11 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Barb Y. Apr 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### so good! We had a fabulous stay at Serenity by the Sea! Its just a walk across the road to the beach, hot pools, playground, library and the Brighton Pier. Also some eateries and Countdown supermarket. We didn't realise this property is two storied and as my hubby has difficulty walking a distance it was a surprise but we managed the stairs together. Also there are two steps into the property. Maybe add that to the description of the property? Would recommend happily as a quiet and peaceful place to stay! ##### Barb Y.
