Life in Jess’s household is a whirlwind of love, laughter, and a dash of chaos. As a devoted mother to four beautiful children, Jess is no stranger to the lively buzz that fills her coastal-inspired home. Amidst the hustle and bustle of family life, Jess has found a way to create a serene, fresh aesthetic that reflects her love for the ocean and all things bright and beautiful. Now, thanks to Cass Deller’s exclusive painting “Yamba Beach,” her home’s coastal charm has reached new heights.

If you’re looking for the perfect spot to create unforgettable family memories, look no further than Thalassa, a charming retro beach house nestled in the heart of Yamba.

Whether you’re visiting Yamba for a week of sun and sea or a longer stay, Thalassa is the ideal base to make your family holiday truly special.

We’ve logged some serious travel miles, and one thing we’ve mastered is suitcase strategy. If you’re sharing luggage, packing by task can save you a world of stress on arrival.

Behind every unforgettable Yamba holiday is a team obsessed with getting it just right. We’re the Oceanstays crew: mums, makers and memory-creators, working together to ensure your stay is nothing short of extraordinary. Passionate about our seaside town, we founded Oceanstays to revive the soul of Yamba holidays and put the wow back in your wanderlust.
