Check in was a phone call and vocal instructions on how to access the property and room never saw a staff member or person and so any problems couldn't be relayed and was a bit painful waiting till after 2 pm before you could even call the owner or manager.

The property is well located in terms of exploring the Jervis Bay area, just a few minutes drive to Vicentia, Huskisson & Hyams Beach. While in the Sanctuary Point locality, it's all short walks to the shops, restaurants & take away shops. Bay & Basin by itself is a very comfortable place of stay with a well maintained & clean room (Family Room) and it's got all the basic necessities expected for this kind of accommodation, eg. nice comfy bed, Aircon, clean bathroom complemented by a steady stream of warm temp shower water. There is also a Microwave & Coffee/Tea Facility. A Toaster would be a good addition to the room, just a suggestion. The remote check-in process was a breeze, thanks to Kerry for guiding us through the way to access the property. There are a few more things that are good to mention about this place but these are the main ones that I can think of. Would consider staying again in the future & recommend Bay & Basin as a great place of stay when in the Jervis Bay area.

We never made it!!! Why you think we stayed is beyond me. I called you four times & left messages but with no response at all I have sent two emails through Expedia with no response. You are welcome to call me on the number on my booking & unreturned phone calls Expedite tried to call you twice to discuss our predicament but was unable to contact you which is the same as my experience.

The term "Boutique Hotel" is misleading for this motel. It's an old building, but the room is modern and clean, although the bathroom seems to be designed for tall people. I'm 182cm(6ft) tall and found the basin too high. There was no room service during my four night stay leading to my suggestion that a two night stay is the limit.

Hairs left all over unit, with no benches evidently wiped clean. Two single beds, connected to make queen bed. Very pricy for what was offered.
