    Welcome to Skyes Beach House

    Welcome to Skyes Beach House in Malua Bay. We're so glad you chose to stay with us, and we hope you settle in and feel right at home. This guide has everything you need to know about the house, plus our favourite local places to eat, drink and explore.

    Scott always dreamed of having a beach house: a place to escape, relax and make great memories. During the renovations his loyal dog, Skye, kept him company, lounging on the balcony, soaking up the ocean view and watching everyone go by. Malua Bay is now Skye's favourite place, and that is how Skyes Beach House came to be.

    If you need anything during your stay, just drop us a message. If you're thinking of coming back, booking directly with us can save you up to 15% by skipping the platform fees.

    • Downstairs: plates, bowls and mugs light blue; glasses clear; kids' green, pink and grey.

    Rubbish and recycling

    House and belongings

    • Return furniture, decor, plants and items to where they were, including between floors.
    • Pack kids' games away in their original places.
    • Make sure the TVs, sound systems and devices are plugged in and working.

    Linen and robots

    • Leave used towels on the bathroom floors. There is no need to strip the beds.
    • Before you leave, turn on the cleaning robots, refill the top compartment on the right side with water and empty the top compartment on the left. If a robot isn't working, tell us straight away.

    Spas: water condition (very important)

    • If the spa water is not clear at check-out, tell us before you leave.
    • You may empty and refill the spa before you go to avoid charges (call us for instructions).
    • Spa left dirty and reported: a $250 servicing fee may apply. Left dirty and not reported: a $500 servicing and replacement fee applies, and it is treated as unreported damage.

    Damage and maintenance

    Tell us straight away about any damage or maintenance issue so we can organise repairs. We are not in the area and rely on guest communication. Damage that is not reported remains the guest's responsibility.

    Final check

    Close all windows and blinds, lock the doors, set the alarm and return the keys to the lockbox for your booking.

    Late check-out

    • Late check-out must be requested in advance and approved by us in writing.
    • An approved late check-out of 2 hours or more is charged at the next night's minimum rate.
    • Without approval, $200 is charged for the first hour, and staying more than an hour past check-out is charged as an extra night at double the nightly rate.
    • Our cleaners charge us from check-in time, so that cost is passed on to you, plus any other administration costs.

    If any of these steps are not completed, extra cleaning, maintenance or servicing charges may apply, as set out in the house rules.

    Amenities

    Hydrotherapy spas

    Skyes Beach House has two hydrotherapy spas on the spas and sauna deck: the right spa (dark blue) seats up to 6 people and the left spa (blue) seats up to 5. On the upstairs and downstairs shared stays the deck is shared with the other level's guest group.

    The TV on the deck has its own remote: see TV, streaming and music.

    Temperature

    • The right spa is kept at 38°C and the left spa at 30°C, to save energy.
    • If you would like a different temperature, message us before your stay. It takes time to adjust.
    • If you want to use both spas, message us before your stay and we will have the second spa switched on and heated for you.

    Spa rules

    • Shower with soap before you get in. Fake tans, oils, lotions and sunscreen cloud and dirty the water.
    • No glass and no food in or around the spa. Drinks are fine in non-glass containers: please don't spill them in the water.
    • Put the cover back on after every use, or the spa cools down and takes hours to reheat. The covers are key-locked for safety, and your arrival message tells you where the key is.
    • Two people should lift the covers. Carry them, don't drag them, and rest them against the sauna. If you use only one spa, put its cover on the other spa.
    • Never switch off the power at the electrical isolation switch or protection devices. Use the touchpad only.
    • Do not go over the seat limits. Children must be supervised by an adult at all times: the spa is not a play area.
    • If debris gets into the water, a spa cleaning robot is under the outdoor TV.

    How to use the spa panel

    Change the temperature

    1. Press Warm until the temperature flashes.
    2. Press Warm to go up, or Cool to go down.
    3. Wait a few seconds and it saves.

    Going hotter than 37°C? The spa has two ranges. Low range holds 10 to 37°C. High range holds 37 to 40°C. To switch range:

    1. Press Warm until the temperature flashes.
    2. Press Light once until TEMP shows.
    3. Press Warm for high range or Cool for low range.
    4. Press Light to set. The arrow on the screen points up for high and down for low.

    Jets, blower and light

    • The Jets and Blower buttons start and stop the jets and air bubbles.
    • The Light button turns the spa light on and off.

    If the panel will not respond (locked)

    1. Hold Warm.
    2. Press Light twice until UNLOCK shows.

    Please do not change the clock, filter cycles or heating mode. They keep the spa clean and heated.

    Heating time: it takes hours to heat, so change the temperature early.

    Spa recovery charge

    If a spa is left dirty, murky, uncovered, or needs draining and refilling because of misuse, a $500 spa recovery charge applies. If the water is not clear when you leave, tell us before you go: that reduces the charge to $250 and lets us clean it before the next guests arrive.

    Amenities

    Games room and arcade machines

    The games room has two Daytona driving simulators (150 games), an arcade shooter machine (4,500+ games), a digital pinball machine (1,300 games) and digital darts. It is in the garage, reached through the back of the garage from the bottom deck.

    If the door sticks: The wall is slightly warped. While you unlock the door, gently pull it towards you and it will open.

    House rules for the machines

    • Adults must read the instructions and teach anyone under 18 how to use the machines safely. Supervise children, especially on the arcade and driving machines.
    • Always turn the machines off when you finish.
    • Cameras cover the games room. Please do not touch the camera.
    • Misuse or damage is charged as repair costs. Tell us straight away if something breaks.
    • Message us to confirm you have read the instructions before you play.

    Digital pinball (1,300 games)

    • Press the on/off button under the machine, wait a few seconds for it to start, then press the button next to it to power it up fully. Press the same on/off button to turn it off.
    • Use the left and right buttons by the levers to scroll through games. The start button begins a game, and the coin button acts as inserting a coin. Press exit to leave a game.

    Arcade shooter (4,500+ games)

    • The on/off button is on the back of the machine, bottom right when you face it.
    • Player 1 controls everything, from the second control from the left. The A button (top left on Player 1) selects a game, and the B button (top middle) switches menus and categories. Hold the Player 1 symbol to exit a game.
    • The coin button is at the top middle of the machine, between the player buttons.

    Daytona driving simulators (150 games)

    • Use the power points between the two machines to turn them on and off.
    • The mode switch picks between arcade-style games and platform games (such as PlayStation and Nintendo). Turn the steering wheel gently to move between games. Only some games, like Daytona, are two-player.

    Digital darts

    • The power cable and darts are in the drawer underneath. You can download the app and link your phone to keep score.

    BBQ, smoker and pizza oven

    The backyard entertainment area has a Char-Griller 4-burner gas BBQ, a Pit Boss 850G pellet smoker and a COZZE 13-inch gas pizza oven. The area is shared when the house is not fully booked, so please clean everything after you use it.

    Gas

    • Turn the gas bottle off after each use.
    • We keep two bottles on site. If one runs out, tell us and replace it at FoodWorks across the road. We refund the bottle if you keep the receipt. Leave the new bottle on site.

    Smoker

    • Smoking pellets and gas are supplied to start. If they run out you may need to restock at your own cost. Instructions are on the side of the smoker.
    • Do not cook directly on the smoker plates: use a metal or disposable tray (aluminium trays are at FoodWorks across the road).
    • Store pellets in a sealed container, off the ground, to keep them dry.
    • An extension lead is next to the smoker. Wrap it up after use and hang it high.
    • Videos: how to use the smoker, what the smoker can do.

    BBQ

    • Clean the BBQ well after use. A scraper is in both apartments and BBQ wipes are next to the BBQ.

    Pizza oven

    • Pizza trays are in both the upstairs and downstairs apartments. Baking paper makes cleaning easier. A large spatula is in each apartment: please return the tools to where you found them.
    • Make your own dough in the Thermomix (see the Thermomix tile). A good plan is to smoke meat one night and use the leftovers on pizzas the next night.
    • Video: how to use the pizza oven.

    Cleaning

    Please clean the BBQ, smoker and pizza oven after use. If they are left uncleaned a $100 cleaning fee applies. If you would rather not clean, tell us before you leave and a $60 cleaning fee applies instead.

    Infrared sauna

    Skyes Beach House has a 5-person infrared sauna on the spas and sauna deck. It takes about 20 minutes to reach 40°C, which is when the infrared heat starts to work.

    How to use it

    1. Turn the sauna on with the power button on the control panel.
    2. Set the timer to about 60 minutes to warm it up. When you get in, change the timer to the time you want to stay.
    3. Set the temperature you like. The sauna reaches 40°C after about 20 minutes.
    4. For music, press the Bluetooth button and connect your phone. There are lights for ambience too.
    5. Sit on a towel. Stay for 10 to 15 minutes a session, and start shorter if you are new to infrared saunas.

    Safety

    • Do not use the sauna if you are pregnant or have a medical condition such as heart disease, high blood pressure or a respiratory problem, unless your doctor says it is fine.
    • Skip alcohol and heavy meals beforehand. Bring water in plastic or metal bottles: no glass.
    • If you feel dizzy, sick or overheated, get out and cool down straight away.
    • Children under 18 must have an adult with them. Drink plenty of water afterwards and let your body cool before you shower.

    If the sauna is left in an unreasonable state, or damaged, the cost of extra cleaning, a technician, repair or replacement is charged to the guest.

    Amenities

    Fire pits

    There are two fire pits: a bioethanol fire pit on the front bottom deck and a wood fire pit in the backyard. Firewood is supplied free of charge. Bioethanol fuel is $60 per 5-litre bottle, so please ask at least 7 days before your stay if you want it arranged.

    Wood fire pit (backyard)

    • Firewood is supplied, but availability is not guaranteed. Tell us if it runs low.
    • Bring your own kindling and firestarters, and don't burn the fruit trees.
    • Never leave the fire burning while you sleep or are away. Put it out with the hose before bed or before you leave the property.
    • Do not throw cigarettes, bottle caps or other non-fire items in the pit. Please put the pebbles back if children move them.
    • Never light a fire on a total fire ban day. Check the Hazards Near Me NSW app or the NSW RFS website.

    Bioethanol fire pit (front deck)

    • On stays that are not the full house, this fire pit is shared with the other guests.
    • Use only e-NRG bioethanol fuel: $60 per 5-litre bottle, or $240 for a 20-litre carton (4 x 5 L). Never use petrol, wood or other fuel.
    • It takes 8 litres to fill. A full pit with the energy ring lasts about 11 to 13 hours, and about 9 hours without it.
    • Never refill while it is burning: wait at least an hour for it to cool. Never throw matches or other objects in.
    • Turn it off before you leave it unattended or go to bed: the area is bushfire-prone. Keep the lid on when it is not in use.
    • Supervise children at all times. The glass rocks can be sharp.
    • The cushions and lighting equipment are kept in a tub. Ask us to arrange access, and confirm you have watched the videos below. Don't leave cushions or equipment outside overnight: we are close to a main road and things go missing.
    • Videos: how to refill, how to light it and put it out safely, how to use the efficiency ring.

    Amenities

    Trampoline and play area

    There is a trampoline in the backyard play area. It is best for children aged 5 and up, takes up to 250 kg in total (160 kg per person), and no more than 4 people should be on it at once. That is up to two adults and two children, as long as the combined weight stays under the limit. No shoes on the trampoline.

    Safety

    • An adult must supervise children at all times.
    • No rough play, flips or stunts. Keep the area clear of objects.
    • Do not use the trampoline if you have been drinking, and keep alcohol away from the trampoline area.
    • Secure the safety net and padding properly after each use.
    • Trampoline use carries inherent risks. By using it you accept responsibility for the safety of everyone who uses it, and we cannot be held liable for injuries. Check your travel insurance covers trampoline injuries.

    Please don't move it

    The trampoline stays where it is. If it is moved, a $250 fee applies to get the handyman to put it back.

    Amenities

    Outdoor shower, sand and salt

    There is an outdoor shower with a foot-wash tap for rinsing off salt and sand before you go inside. It is heated by the sun to up to 40°C from a 35-litre vessel, so use the water sparingly.

    How to use it

    • The tap is off when you arrive. Turn it on and let the water heat for 12 to 24 hours, then adjust the valve to the temperature you want.
    • Turn the tap fully off after use so water is not wasted.

    Why it matters

    • Saltwater can corrode metal, peel paint and warp wood. Sand scratches floors, damages upholstery and blocks drains.
    • Please rinse off before you come in, and don't leave towels on the balustrades, glass or wood: it can damage them.

    Amenities

    The giant Connect 4 set is in the room with the double bunk beds upstairs. Please keep it indoors. Spiders and other insects make it unsuitable to leave outside overnight.

    Robot vacuum and mop

    There is a Roborock Q Revo Edge C robot vacuum and mop on each level. It vacuums and mops at the same time and returns to its dock when it finishes. It has no camera or video recording.

    How to use it

    Safety and local

    Beach, bush and local safety

    Malua Bay Beach is across the road, a 2-minute walk. Always swim between the red and yellow flags.

    • Volunteer surf lifesavers from Batemans Bay Surf Life Saving Club patrol Malua Bay on weekends and public holidays from October to April. Professional lifeguards patrol every day from mid-December to the end of January.
    • Rips are common on ocean beaches. If you are caught in one, stay calm, float and raise an arm for help.
    • The sun is strong here, even on cloudy days: slip, slop, slap.
    • The area is bushfire-prone in the warmer months. Check the Hazards Near Me NSW app, and never light a fire on a total fire ban day.
    • Kangaroos are often on the roads at dawn and dusk, so please drive carefully.
    • In heavy rain the backyard can briefly fill with water (see Heavy rain).

    Safety and local

    Heavy rain

    The property is near a creek and swamp area, so in heavy rain the backyard can briefly fill with water. The house sits on higher ground, the downstairs apartment has never flooded, and it is not listed as a flood risk in our insurance records.

    • In extreme cases the water can approach the back step, but it drains away quickly once the rain stops. Neighbouring properties may be surrounded by water while only our backyard is affected.
    • There is no need to worry, but keep an eye on the water level in heavy rain, and message us if you have any concerns.
    • The toilets may gurgle now and then. Our plumber has confirmed this is normal.

    Safety and local

    Things to know before you arrive

    Skyes Beach House is a traditional two-storey beach house on a service road beside George Bass Drive, so you may hear normal road noise in the daytime. We would rather you know before you arrive.

    • The upstairs and downstairs are reached by outdoor stairs.
    • The upstairs balcony railings are horizontal and can be climbed. Please supervise toddlers and young children.
    • Security cameras cover the outside of the house at the front and back, and the games room in the garage. There are no cameras inside the home.
    • Minut sensors monitor noise, occupancy and air quality inside and outside. They are not cameras and don't record conversations or sound.
    • The toilets may gurgle occasionally: our plumber has confirmed this is normal.
    • In heavy rain the backyard can briefly fill with water. The house sits on higher ground.
