About this property

Port Levy Retreat with large section

Escape to our peaceful Port Levy bach — the perfect spot to slow down and reconnect. Set on a generous garden section, it’s ideal for families who want space to play, explore, and unwind.
Wander down the private track to your very own secluded beach, where you can spend long afternoons swimming, beachcombing, or simply soaking in the quiet. Whether you’re relaxing on the deck, enjoying the garden, or heading down to the water, this is a place where time feels slower and life feels lighter.

NOTE This is a very quiet place surrounded by people [our friends] who live there for the peaceful setting so if you are looking for a place to host an event or party, this is not the place for you and noisy or disruptive guests will be asked to leave.

It has three bedrooms--two queen beds and one room with a set of bunks. Wonderful deck where you can watch people kayaking on the water, or just read a book.

Have young children? Then send them down to our path to the private beach where they can get away from technology and collect stones, look for crabs or kayak to the very special island. (one sit-on Kayak with life jacket and paddle is available for use). Feel free to bring your own sea kayaks.

Why we love Port Levy? ITS QUIET!! NOTE - No shops but Diamond Harbour is only 25 min away.

Please note: this is our family Bach that we want others to enjoy. To keep prices low, there is no cleaning fee and we just ask that you clean it and leave it the way you found it.

Finally, please note - this property is fully self service. This means you must bring your own linen [sheets, pillow cases and towels] and clean the property upon departure. This keeps the price down by avoiding a service fee. Thanks
