How is the property laid out?

The uniquely different spaces are what makes Araluen House special! There are four large bedrooms in the main house and then a much larger separate and very private space with two bedrooms - the Cottage.

Downstairs in the main house - the master bedroom has a king bed, full length windows overlooking the pool and an ensuite. Bedrooms 2 and 3 have queen beds, and are opposite a large shared bathroom with a shower and bath. Adjacent to these are the laundry and the downstairs lounge with a full home cinema, surround sound and black out blinds!

Upstairs in the main house - bedroom 4 has a double and an ensuite with a shower. The kitchen area proves a fabulous place for everyone to congregate whilst cooking up a storm, and flows through to the indoor and outdoor dining and lounging spaces.

The Cottage, separate from the main house, has 2 bedrooms - one with a king bed and one with a queen bed, a library of books, TV and an ensuite bathroom with large stone bath and wet room shower.

Araluen House is able to accommodate a large family, a couple of smaller families or groups of friends. With plenty of indoor/outdoor areas, there is space for everyone to lounge around separately or together.

Wi-Fi, Internet, Netflix or Pay TV - will I have it?

Araluen offers complementary WiFi and Cable TV to guests. Each bedroom has a smart TV in the main house and the house has a full home cinema.

Keep in mind that the owner nor the managing agent can guarantee connectivity, so if internet access is critical during your stay please make sure you have a Plan B! Free to air television is not available at this property.

What about outdoors?

Landscaped gardens lead to a spectacular backyard complete with a pool, deck chairs, Weber BBQ and a sitting area for drinks and entertaining. The kitchen/dining area flows through to the upper entertaining deck with both lounging and dining options. The back gate in the garden leads to a short cut - taking you straight to the beach!

Staying warm or keeping cool?

Araluen House is equipped with reverse cycle air conditioning. In the summer months the house can be opened up for a fresh sea breeze.
