Cave Rock Rocks
Great location opposite the beach. The room was very spacious, airy, clean and comfortable with a great shower. The kitchen facilities were ideal, too.We received a very warm welcome on our arrival and felt very relaxed in the accommodation and wished we had allowed time to stay an extra night. We can highly recommend Cave Rock Guest House.

I didn't realize just how far away this property was from the airport ($100 Uber ride). It's very clean and the host appreciates it if you let her know that you're showing up late (my train was massively delayed).

We had a wonderful time. The place was very comfortable and the hosts were welcoming and helpful. Sumner Beach is a perfect little beach town, just like you'd hope it to be.
