Here are a few thoughts from some of the guests, who have stayed at Sunset Waters.
We are home, after a really wonderful weekend at Sunset Waters. The description of this holiday house on the internet didn't prepare us for the joy of sitting on the front patio until after midnight on the Saturday night, enjoying the view of the lights across Moreton Bay etc, in barmy weather. Then the fantastic views we woke up to—breathtaking! The house itself was a delight and the owners have catered for every possible thing a tourist/holiday maker could ask for, and then some. The only thing we missed out on was the Sunsets, due to rainy weather on the nights we stayed—not to worry; we will see them next time! We will most certainly be back! The hire car on Macleay worked out great & it was all we needed for the few days we stayed—and the Blue Parrot must have been sick of us by the time we left, great food & service! Thank you for sharing your home with us, we will be back! May 2009Sue, Warburton, VIC
Just as tranquil, just as relaxing as each visit before—this is our 3rd stay at Sunset Waters. It is with regret we pack our bags to prepare for the journey home to reality—but know that we will return again. Feb 2009Sue & Andrew, Greenwood, Perth WA
Sunset Waters was everything we had hoped for—peaceful, comfortable and in a wonderful position with beautiful views. For the 1st week we hardly moved from the house but then we discovered the friendly island people—smiling, helpful and friendly, with time for a chat. This is how life should be!! Wish we could stay forever! January 2009Jane & Barry, Thailand
White yacht bobbing, just outside the door.
Here for 7 nights, could do with some more.
Rain on the water, what a beautiful sound.
Last day here, now are homeward bound.
Had a great stay, the house is a treat.
Friendly neighbours around, as we walked down the street.
Sea eagles cruise by on fresh morning breeze.
After a couple of days, we feel much more at ease.
Enjoyed it so much, we must come again.
Give special thanks to neighbours, John & Elaine.

We recently returned from our holiday at Sunset Waters. What a magnificent home! We went for a relaxing holiday and that's exactly what we did! The house is beautifully furnished and positioned overlooking the bay islands & mainland. The large decks on both levels make it seem as though the views go on forever—many an afternoon was spent on the lower deck with the ladies having a wine while the boys cooked the freshly caught fish and crabs. What more could you want? We will definitely be back! October 2008Julianne & friends, Aspley QLD
Thank you for providing the opportunity to spend a tranquil and relaxing week in a beautiful house, in a beautiful location. September 2008Liesbeth, Walter & family, Bellbowrie, QLD
Tranquility at its finest! Spectacular view! Many thanks to Elaine & John for their hospitality, friendliness and the golf tips! August 2008Kathleen, Bill, Cheryl & Glen, Canberra ACT
Absolutely Magic!! We had a fantastic weekend, love the house, views are amazing. We explored the island, lunched at Pat's Park, had drinks at the bowls club, then a lovely dinner with Pam at The Blue Parrot. Gavin has paddled around the island every day, both training and relaxing at the same time. Thanks Deb & Paul for sharing this beautiful property with us. Ta to Elaine & John for their warm welcome & friendliness. We will take away wonderful memories and we will return ASAP. Thanks again. June 2008Kathy & Gavin, Ferny Hills, QLD
Thanks once again - this is our 2nd stay. We caught more fish than last time, so are looking forward to catching more fish & crabs on our NEXT visit here. We enjoyed the champers - thanks Deb & Paul. June 2008Vicki, David, Natalie & Jordan, Capalaba, QLD
We made it back for our 2nd stay, but not as soon as I had hoped! We had my mum & dad with us this time and they were as delighted with Sunset Waters, as we all are. Thanks again Elaine & John for the local knowledge and help. We had some Brisbane friends come and join us for lunch at The Blue Parrot... I think a "girl's weekend" will be on the agenda very soon!!! June 2008Gill, Peter & family, Brisbane, QLD
Love it... love it... love it once again! This is our third visit. We had a great weekend with friends. We caught a few nice fish, so cooked them on the BBQ and invited John, Elaine & Matthew over for dinner with us. A GREAT evening! Thanks again Deb & Paul, we'll be back again soon. May 2008Donetta & Paul, Ferny Grove, QLD
Shared your beautiful abode with dear friends, with many laughs, stories, good food and loads of fine wine to wash it down—then to meet Elaine & John, capped off a lovely weekend! Relaxing, yet an exhilarating experience... Thank you muchly. We will recommend a similar episode for those we know... Au revoir! May 2008Bryan & Jan (friends of Donetta & Paul) QLD
What a stunning place to spend our honeymoon!! It's been the most relaxing time we could have ever hoped for. The 2 weeks leading up to our wedding was just manic, but within 5 minutes of arriving, we were both in heaven. We don't want to leave—but we will be back soon! Thank you Deb for letting us stay in your "piece of paradise"—we appreciate it so much. April 2008Tricia & Mikael, Tanah Merah, QLD
Fantastic!! A lovely place to stay and relax. Thank you Deb for giving our family what they needed—"Family Time" together! Also, many thanks to Elaine & John—they are wonderful people and so helpful. We'll be back. Easter 2008Greg, Rosie & Family, Kellyville NSW
What a lovely place to spend my husband's 60th birthday. Beautiful one day... perfect the next. It has been so enjoyable to holiday in a place that lived up to "what we hoped it would be." In the past we have paid a lot of money for some holiday houses that have let us down badly, but Sunset Waters was absolutely fabulous, the attention to detail and the cleanliness was 1st class! March 2008Kathryn & Eric, Boondall, QLD
Didn't know there was a piece of heaven so close to Brisbane. We had to be patient to see some gorgeous sunsets due to the rain, but enjoyed ourselves anyway reading, playing board games & relaxing. The view is amazing and always changing no matter what the weather. It's a long way from Holland, but hopefully we will be back someday. January 2008Lauri & family, The Netherlands
Our second time to Sunset Waters, we have stayed six days. My elderly mother has found it to be a wonderfully relaxing and a very memorable holiday for her. The elements were against us this time, with rain on most days; however it did not spoil our stay. Your home is beautifully presented and has everything you need to make any holiday relaxing. December 2007Lorraine, John & Joy, Kawana Island QLD
A fabulous sanctuary... very peaceful and wonderfully grounding. Thank you John & Elaine for adding to our memories, hope to see you again. Thanks Deb & Paul for all the emails and help you gave, you have a lovely holiday home. Many, many thanks... Merry Christmas. December 2007Vikki & Bruce, Pimlico QLD
This is truly the place to repair your soul—what a wonderful idyllic haven! Thank you too, Elaine & John for all the help and the loan of the fishing rods—without these, we could not have fed the fish of Macleay Island. November 2007Elizabeth & Angela (UK), Julian & Sharon (Sth Africa)
This house & location is amazing! So relaxing and peaceful, we love it. Thanks for sharing it with us. .September 2007Carolyn & Russell, Toowoomba QLD
Eight days of heaven—I want more (always was greedy!) The view... OMG. My favourite things to do: take a book, some nibbles and a chair down onto the jetty—I even caught a fish! I enjoyed a BBQ on the back deck with a glass of red wine in one hand and the tongs in the other, looking across to the lights on the mainland. Coffee on the upper deck early in the morning, just out of bed, was magic... I can still see it all very clearly now. August 2007Lyn, Geebung QLD
