Bay Lyf - Beach House - Old School Summer Holidays are back

Longer stay discounts available when booking direct.

We love this because...
Remember those old school type summer holidays that included backyard cricket and long days on the beach. Bay Lyf reminds us of better days, simpler days when things were less complicated.
We adore the original beach house with its maze of rooms but the interiors are so up to date and oozing layers of style.
We walk across the road to the white Sandy beaches of Rye and Tootgarook and spend all our summer days swimming and sunbaking.
If we are feeling energetic we take the Bay Trail walk in either direction and end up at either Rye or Rosebud. In the summer the funfair is on to entertain the kids in one location and the circus in the other. Perfect.
Our favorite spot for coffee and breakfast is only a 2-minute walk away at The Kitchen and for something special we always choose Veraison Restaurant which is only a 5-minute walk.

What fun! a new house to visit that lets (SMALL) four-legged friends like me sleep inside.
Yay! a garden with tall fences to keep me safe. I love walking to the beach where I can go swimming in the ocean with all the other doggies (but only at certain times of the year).
And there's a special basket just for me. No way! What's in there? Ooh, ooh! a treat from PAWDINKUM. I LOVE THIS PLACE.

The house is beautiful, spacious and has a large back yard. Getting to the beach does require crossing a major road but it was fairly easy to do by walking down the road a bit. Rooms are well decorated and furnished and clearly done by someone who's perfectly captured the beach vibe. The house has plenty of space for a group of 10.

Nice stay at Bay Lyf
Spent a nice week with the family at Bay Lyf. Had a very enjoyable time. Proximity to the beach was great and the kids loved the huge backyard. House was very clean and comfortable, furnishings were very nice and comfortable and it had all the necessary amenities with washing machine, dishwasher, etc. Communications with property manager were very easy. Thanks.
