About this property

Stunning Views & Reno'd Beach Chic

** All guests are welcomed with a bottle of SA wine and chocolate **

Full renovation upstairs completed October 2015!! This property is now stunning with a brand new kitchen (with dishwasher), new master bathroom, new flooring, new painting throughout, new light fittings, new interior design and brand new furniture throughout.

For winter warmth there is both split system air conditioning and a combustion stove which gives you warmth at the flick of a switch AND the glorious ambience of a wood fire. In summer, the split system air cond (and the lovely sea breezes) will do the trick.

Situated just one street back from the gorgeous beach at Carrickalinga, this large house has glorious sea views that will thrill you! If you want a holiday at the beach, then its all about the view and this property delivers in spades! Within almost a stones throw to the sandy beach, from this private vantage point you can even see the local dolphins swim by…

This elevated storey home is built of double brick throughout, internally & externally, with huge oregon beams featuring in the raked ceilings of the large open plan living area. There are 2 balconies to relax on, with a view of the sea from either.

The magnificently renovated top floor has the master bedroom, guest room & 3rd bedroom with a family bathroom to share. The beds are styled with designer linen.

Downstairs is a games room with a play station, BOSE Stereo System, pool table and a table tennis table. A brilliant holiday treat for kids and adults alike!

There is a handy second, after the beach bathroom on the ground floor, along with a very large garage suitable for a boat. Please note that there is no internal access between two floors.

Bedding Configuration:
Main Bedroom 1: King bed
Bedroom 2: King bed
Bedroom 3: Two bunk beds (ie. 4 Single beds)

Amazing views and the perfect getaway
We came here for a family holiday, and it was one of the best places we’ve stayed at on Stayz. You can hear the ocean when you wake up, and the views are spectacular. The whole check in process was easy, they were lovely to deal with and we can’t recommend this place enough. We look forward to staying here again soon! Thank you for the wonderful memories.

Absolutely amazing, can not recommend this stay enough
This stay was well needed for my partner and I. It is extremely close to beach, the evening sunsets and morning views were incredible. After sending multiple pictures to our family, it seems they also want to enjoy the experience. We were so pleased with the whole experience and will definitely be back again. Our fury friends also thoroughly enjoyed their beach walks and evenings over looking the view. Thanks for having us!

Perfect getaway
This was the perfect house to get away for a week and just chill. We had planned to do day trips but ended up staying put!! It was so relaxing having the best views of the beach and hills. We saw the best sunrise and sunsets daily. We left feeling extremely relaxed and our dog was very comfortable which made us even more happier. Highly recommend this house and I know I’ll be back!!!

Beautifully presented
We had a very relaxing stay at the this property, which was made all the more enjoyable because we were able to bring our dog. It has great views and very comfortable beds. We were very happy that there was an area set aside for our dog to feel safe and secure whilst not having full access to the rest of the house if we werent around. We'll certainly come again

Beautiful, clean house with that cosy wood fire. Amazing View in the sun or the rain. Our kids loved the games room and it was fantastic having our four legged kid be so welcome to stay with us for the weekend. We'll be back!!

Little slice of heaven
Photos just don't do this property justice! It's very spacious, light, bright and well renovated with an amazing beach view from a large balcony. The beds are king size and extra comfy too. We felt so spoilt as we are used to renting some fairly crappy rentals when we take our furbaby but this was luxury. Loved every minute and it was so hard to leave. Thank you!!

We'll be back!
A girls weekend for 4 and from the moment we opened the front door and entered this beautifully decorated home we knew we were in for a fantastic weekend! From the view out to the ocean and open plan living interior, everything we needed was there for us. Comfy beds, lovely shower head, and kitchen that would rival many other holiday homes, we were loathe to leave and decided next time we will be staying longer. The only down side was the oven really needed a good clean as something was burning when using it.

View 'to die for'
Just returned from a comfortable and cosy week at this house. Decor is contemporary and tasteful. Great idea for the indoor gate to keep the dogs safe if you need to leave the house. Would be improved with a "doggy door". View of the waves crashing on to the beach made the combustion heater feel even more cosy. Would recommend this house to anyone. Unfortunately we chose a week with extremely bad weather, but it didn't deter us from exploring the surrounding area.

Wonderful view of beach
Inaccuracies with information provided before we arrived - keyless entry is not front and back, only front. Info provided for operating tv and foxtel not up to date so it was a matter of hit and miss with remotes to make it operational. Unfortunately smell from what we presume to be feral cat prevented us from using back balcony for 1 day and needed to keep the door shut so smell didn't permeate living area. Previous reviews stated garden in well kept condition - on our visit there were multiple weeds growing in the pavers and garden areas. It wasn't until we booked that the information stated that we needed to supply your own firewood if you wanted to use the wood fire. We've never stayed at a holiday accommodation where a small supply of milk is not provided. There were coffee pods but the machine was very tricky to use, I ended up having to google operating instructions and why the capsule kept falling through. Small amount of sugar supplied but if you take milk with your coffee/tea then you will have to bring it with you or take a drive into Normanville for supplies. What you are paying for is the view and being pet friendly the accommodation is very nice but a tad on the pricey side in my humble opinion.

Fantastic place to relax and unwind
The property is spacious and tastefully decorated and the views were fantastic. It was great waking up lying in the comfy bed, and hearing the waves crashing and the birdsong. A great spot to relax and unwind- would love to have stayed longer.

Beautiful coastal property with amazing view!
What a beautiful property. The photos do not do it justice. The view is amazing. Feels like you are perched above the ocean. It was lovely to sleep with the windows open at night and hear the waves crashing. We had planned to do some day trips but ended up just staying put and admiring view. Thanks for a lovely break.
