The host Melanie was excellent and responsive. Would highly recommend for anyone wanting a nice coastal getaway.

The house was exactly what we needed with plenty of room for our adult children and their families. The living areas, multiple bedrooms and ensuite bathrooms were so spacious and clean. Outdoor areas, including the amazing pool were fantastic. Location right across from the water and a short walk to beaches and parks made this property ideal.

It was ideal for our family, including the young children, and offered every amenity we could need. The property was spotless, spacious, and very comfortable.

Wonderful house in a wonderful spot. The heated pool in particular was fantastic for my little kids, but you really can’t fault a home with a bathroom on every room. Look forward to staying with Mel again.

Well appointed with numerous bedrooms and ensuites to cater comfortably to a large family. Separate downstairs living room a bonus for the teenager and the bay right outside the door great for the little ones. Very comfortable beds and so quiet away from any hustle and bustle. Just the water lapping and birds for company.

Loved our stay at Callala beach. House was amazing, well equipped and lots of space. Great location. We did a surfing lesson and whale watch cruise. Pool was lovely and heated, unfortunately the weather meant we only got in once but that was ok. Beds comfy. Would recommend for large groups

Thank you so much Amy! So happy to hear you enjoyed Mandala Beach House and sounds like you experienced some of my fave water activities too. We hope to welcome you back one day soon or to Sundara Beach House and Uma on Werri. Mel
Mandala Beach House is exquisite! Every detail of this property is perfect. The bedrooms are beautifully furnished and versatile for a group of up to 12 people. The living areas are spacious and well furnished. The kitchen offers an outstanding selection of elements which include everything you could need for a stay. The outdoor areas are just wonderful with a heated pool, BBQ and outdoor entertainment area - all so comfortable and well equiped.
Communication with the Mel (property manager) was first rate - she was clear and timely in all her communications and could not have been more helpful.
The location at Callala Bay is beautiful - quiet, tranquil, peaceful. Just perfect.
I would recommend this property without hesitation - an absolutely perfect weekend with family and friends.

Thank you so much for your beautiful review. We are so happy that you and your family/friends had such a special weekend at Mandala. The house is perfect for groups who want to spend quality time together in a stunning setting. We can't wait to welcome you all back.
For other hosts, we highly recommend Donna.
Mandala Beach House is a slice of heaven. I recently celebrated my birthday with a big group of girls and there was plenty of room for all of us. The house was spotlessly clean. We loved sitting on the enormous front balcony watching the pods of dolphins go by. The lovely kitchen was well stocked. We loved that there were multiple bathrooms which is essential for a large group. Having the pathway in front of the house was also fantastic as we didn’t have to drive anywhere to go for beautiful walks along the beachfront or infact on the beach itself. Melanie was fantastic and so quick to respond. Couldn’t fault the check-in process. I also appreciated the welcome gift. Overall 10/10.

Hi Donna,
Thank you so much for your beautiful review. I’m so pleased to hear Mandala was the perfect setting for your milestone birthday celebration and that you and your friends had such a memorable stay.
It’s wonderful to know you enjoyed everything from the spacious layout and well-equipped kitchen to the multiple bathrooms and the beachfront location. And how special to be able to relax on the balcony watching the dolphins pass by — those moments really do make a stay at Mandala unforgettable.
Thank you also for your kind words about the hosting experience and welcome gift. It was a pleasure to host your group, and we hope to welcome you back again soon. Perhaps next time you might like to experience one of our other properties, Uma on Werri or Sundara Beach House, just a little further up the coast in Gerringong.
Warm regards,
Melanie
We absolutely loved the Mandala Beach House. All the rooms were immaculate, it had everything we needed, and is a 25 minute drive to Huskisson. The view was spectacular, and it was a huge bonus having ensuites for almost every room. We stayed here the first weekend in September, and it was cold and rainy, but the pool was heated perfectly and we made use of it a number of times. Melanie is extremely responsive and lovely, and was very quick to have some personal belongings we left behind, shipped to us. We will definitely be staying again!
