Storm’s Over. Time to Check-in.
Well, that was a ride. Cyclone Alfie certainly made an entrance, gave the east coast a good shake-up and left us with a few extra branches to pick up. But if you know Oceanstays, you know one thing for sure—we’re here, we’re on it and we never let a little (okay, a lot of) wind and rain get in the way of making sure your holiday is nothing short of spectacular.
Easter Done Right.
Easter in Yamba is a very good idea. You know what’s an even better idea? Staying with the team that makes sure your holiday is actually relaxing. Because let’s be honest—when it comes to a break, you want smooth sailing, not a game of “Will my accommodation be as advertised?” (Spoiler: With Oceanstays, it will. And then some.)
