BLUE ISLAND - Award winning holiday home

AWARDED AUSTRALIA'S TOP PET FRIENDLY RENTAL FOR 2017/2018 BY STAYZ

BLUE ISLAND
Blue Island is a delicious cocktail of exotic world locations under one roof at Culburra Beach. Whilst being a quintessential South Coast Beach House Blue Island is a celebration of everywhere exotic.

So meander in and relax in comfort whilst you are transported to paradise spots north and south of the Equator. Flee the hustle and bustle to reside in tranquility and comfort just two and a half hours south of the Big Smoke.

This majestic Blue Island will delight even the most world weary travelers. With timber decking from each of the four bedrooms and both lounge rooms Blue is designed for absolute coastal relaxation. She has just undergone a major restoration and is mighty fine indeed with everything you could want in a home by the sea.

THE LOCATION @ Culburra Beach

Just over 100 metres to the most beautiful beach you will have the opportunity to wander on. Blue Island has its own street beach entry, so no roads to cross or corners to turn just stroll east for a minute or so and you are on the Pacific Ocean.

********DOWNSTAIRS*********

HAMPTONS LOUNGE Shake off that city smoke and immerse yourself in some Hamptons inspired coastal comfort. Settle into a curacao lounge doused in coffee and whipped cream. Dock in your itunes, indulge in a movie or simply rest your legs whilst being served from the near-by kitchen. Dine with friends and family inside or out with tables graced for a king or queen.

MALDIVE MIMOSA -With a bit of Raj washed up from near-by India, Maldive Mimosa sparkles with amaretto laced champagne. Mimosa is a coastal mirage of delicate shell hues gracing a queen room that opens to a south facing deck. Sleep soundly in a queen bed dressed with designer linen or stroll out to your deck and search for the elusive Southern Cross.

GIN SLING - Drench yourself in a bit of Asian infused colonial inspired comfort. Check in to this twin room and dream of boating off to some far flung Colonial Asian outpost. Privatise the room or open to a tropical inspired garden beyond your south facing deck.

*******UPSTAIRS*******

SERENGETI LOUNGE
For a change of scenery or for 6pm cocktails wander upstairs to the Serengeti Lounge and be engulfed by colonial Africa. Reminisce about the old days or skite about some recent conquests whilst you relax over a game of cards, a book, DVD or an aperitif. For a bit of fresh air retire outside to the La Plage deck.

TAHITIAN TREAT
Master Bedroom 1- Sleep in zesty lime Island infused luxury with plenty of Polynesian charm and hints of some distant Island hopping. Enjoy the privacy of a grand scaled room with ensuite bathroom and private deck furnished with a sumptuous king bed dressed in designer linen. The addition of a single bed dressed as day bed will allow you to keep your little one close by

BLUE HAWAII
Come with me while the moon is on the sea, the night is young and so are we. Be serenaded by the rhythmic surf whilst you dream of Blue Hawaii. Enjoy sweet dreams amongst the cocoa leaves and hibiscus flowers in 100% count cotton sheets on premium king bedding. Embrace the morning by opening your doors to the private east facing deck beyond. Enjoy the fresh scented sea air as you sip a tropical juice blend.

******OUTSIDE*******

HARRY'S BORDER BAR
Located at the back of the yard is Harry's Border Bar (games room) , a fusion of outback OZ, West and South USA and Havanna Cuba. The only thing served at Harry's is a big dose of sparkling fun. Enjoy a game of pool, a battle of fooseball, a dash at darts or a slam at air hockey.

Fantastic beach escape in a wonderful home.
We had an amazing family summer holiday (with pet) in this lovely property in a great location. This extremely comfortable, well-equipped home is only a short walk to the end of the street where you are greeted with a beautiful pet friendly beach. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a beach escape or to explore the many great locations and attractions on the NSW South Coast.

Great house! We loved it.
We thoroughly enjoyed our week in this attractive, well-equipped house. There is plenty of space, fun decor, and the games room is a bonus - especially when it rains. The location is fabulous: an easy walk to the beach (with no roads to cross!), the skate park and the shops. Bonus points too for the kitchen, which was undoubtedly the best-equipped of any holiday rental we’ve stayed in. We highly recommend Blue Island to anyone looking for a place to stay in beautiful Culburra Beach.

Perfect location
The decor and size of the house is fantastic. We felt so comfortable and would certainly stay again. My only criticism would be that a few electrical appliances need attention as the blender did not work and the oven knob was sitting on the kitchen bench making it hard to set a temperature. But they were small details as everything else was fantastic

We enjoyed a lovely week by the beach at Culburra in this beautifully appointed house. The furnishings were delightful and the beds were comfortable. Our Labradors enjoyed the enclosed back garden and the easy stroll to the beach. Our teens loved having the skate park so close. Thanks Ann for a fabulous stay.

After a busy and stressful year it was such a delight to escape to this wonderful calm and relaxing home. Anne ensured that the home was well appointed and that everything we needed was anticipated. My adult family had plenty of space to connect with each and be alone when necessary. Great location. Walking distance to beach and dog friendly. Highly recommend

This stay was very good. There was plenty of space and options for rest and to relax. We liked the separate lounge rooms and the bedrooms. The main bedroom was very big. The kitchen has everything you need. The back yard is nice as and the games room is a bonus. It is reasonably close to the beach- just an easy walk. Overall a very comfortable place to stay for our first trip to Culburra.

Family Friendly
We had a lovely Xmas week at Blue Island. Our youngest is 4 and we also have a 13 year old greyhound. Everyone was happily accommodated. The house was very spacious and a short walk to the beach. The only improvement for us would be fans or air con downstairs. The airflow was lovely during the day but we needed the portable air con during the night in the downstairs rooms. Upstairs has aircon and was lovely. It wasn’t a huge issue but we also didn’t have a hot week. Outside of that, the house is near perfect.

The house was just as described, ambience was 10 stars. Close to beach, just a short walk and no roads to cross. We enjoyed surfing, fishing, paddle boarding, dining out, getting the ferry to Huskisson from Myola, making sand castles, beach walks, dinner at the Little Snapper restaurant with great cocktails, relaxing in the games room. A fantastic holiday and blessed with great weather! Thanks Anne for the use of your fabulous holiday house.
