Consider this your personal invitation to chill out in The Beachshack, the acclaimed, sensitively restored 1926 Fisherman's cottage sitting right on the rock-shelf and sand is the LAST REMAINING original Fisherman's shack on Gunyah Beach. Blissfully private, the "Shack" has vine covered pergolas shading a relaxing chill-out area, and another outdoor BBQ space lit by fairy lights in the evening, on either side of the original cottage.Fully self -contained, with large enclosed verandah, bedroom/sitting room, and self contained kitchen, plus beautifully restored shower and vanity area in adjacent original "wash house", the Shack has won numerous TOURISM AWARDS and has been the romantic location for many photoshoots . It is suitable for ONE COUPLE. Regrettably we do not cater for children over 12 months, and NO PETS.

Just fantastic from the moment we arrived. Was hard to tear ourselves away at the end of our stay.
The most beneficial and relaxing time out we've had in years.
Most definitely will be returning to The Beach Shack.

A piece of history to be treasured. The water edge location makes you feel so far from it all. Thoughly enjoyed. Lyn and Roger had it all covered. Kyaking, bike riding, walking and driving through the national park. Dont ruin it! :)

We have just spent the most idyllic weekend at the Beachshack. The owners were wonderfully welcoming and so friendly. The "shack" beautifully appointed and so comfortable.

"pleasure to be stranded by the sea' The Bundeena Beachshack is so close to the water that you feel as if you are a crusty old sea captain piloting a boat across Port Hacking...At night, the sound of the waves lulls you to sleep.
If you love the sand between your toes, this is certainly the place for you.."
