About the host

Your host

Host profile image
I moved to Tamarama, over 20 years ago and now have a family of surfers. We have a small holiday unit below our house and we love to show our guests the local area, it's great to see visitors soak up the coastal living.

Why they chose this property

We traveled the east coast of Australia for 35 years, holidaying and always searching for the dream location, I doubt there is a beach from Fraser Island (Queensland) to Wilsons Promontory (Victoria) that we haven't visited. We found the perfect spot in Headlands at Little Austinmer, it just ticked all the boxes. Now stay there as much as we can. The question always comes up. Can we stay longer? Please!!!

What makes this property unique

The views are so expansive, I can't decide where to go on the 2 huge balconies, or the terrace.
