This contemporary, architect-designed home offers marvellous facilities, and it’s located in one of the most sought-after locations in Culburra Beach. When you step through the front door, you are transported to a nautical world! With the interior designed to mirror that of a ship, the resulting effect is amazing.

Polished timber floors, extensive use of glass and an ocean backdrop combine to create the perfect beach home. The ground and first floors feature a family room complete with 2 x tri-bunks, a flat-screen TV, and 2 double bedrooms opening on to a private courtyard. The main bathroom on the second floor is spacious and has an ensuite with sunken bath and private balcony. The top level comprises a large living, kitchen and dining area which opens so you can dine alfresco on the large terrace. In the winter months, you can snuggle up in front of the Vista Stack wood burner. Climb the stairs to the observation deck and take in the fabulous views of the ocean.

Top all of this with your own access to the golden sands of Warrain from the property.

Great location

Well equipped kitchen. Great location for hosting multi family get together. Only suggestion to improve is replace 2 small double beds with queens - otherwise too small for normal sized adults to share!!

A very enjoyable stay in a beautiful beachside house

The house was perfect, very spacious and accommodating for 3 families including teenagers. It had all the amenities we needed for cooking in and it was very relaxing sitting out on the deck listening to the waves. Easy direct access to the beach made it a memorable stay. Would highly recommend

Fabulous location & great for 2 families!

We simply loved our stay at The Boathouse. Right on the beach, yet close to wineries, markets and lighthouse walks! The fire is awesome, and the separate area for the kids to hang out was fantastic. A fabulous property for 2 families who love to walk along the beach, play charades and board games, enjoy a fire at night and have space for everyone to relax. Thoroughly recommend!!

Great house for 3 families

We had 3 families of 4 (kids 8-10), stay together and this house was great. The kids room meant that the living area stayed mostly peaceful for the adults. The short walk to the beach made it so convenient to meet everyone’s changing needs. The kitchen was well equipped. It was all clean and modern and spacious. We would stay here again for sure.

Amazing house

This was an incredible house to stay at. 5 minutes from the shops, 2 minutes from the beach, and a beautiful house if you don't feel like doing anything.
Response from VrboOwner on 1 Sept 2023
Hi Beth, We agree The Boathouse is in an excellent location offering the convenience of shops and the beach only a few minutes away. You are correct that the property offers such a great spot that you don't feel the need to be constantly out doing things and you can instead enjoy what facilities The Boathouse has to offer. We hope to see you again soon!
