About this property

The Lighthouse on Culburra Beach

The Lighthouse on Culburra Beach, located just over two hours drive south of Sydney and about 20km east-southeast of Nowra, commands a prime position overlooking Culburra Beach and the Pacific Ocean, near Jervis Bay National Park.

There are expansive coastal views from the house and deck to the north and east, as well as hinterland views of the Crookhaven River estuary and the Southern Tablelands to the west. There is direct access to Culburra Beach from the front garden and the public access track that runs along the northern side of the property.

Soak up the amazing water views from the front deck, watch the whales and dolphins, or relax with a book on the sun deck located in the front garden. In the evening, enjoy drinks gathered around the fire pit before retiring to your ocean front room. Drift off to sleep to the sound of the ocean. Bliss!

The Lighthouse sleeps 6 people: 2 Queen rooms with ocean views and 1 room with single bunk. Please note that the bedrooms and bathrooms are on the ground floor while living areas and kitchen are on the first floor.

Lovely weekend away

We had a great family weekend at this beautiful property at Culburra Beach. It’s a lovely beach house in a great spot, right on the beach with views of the water from just about every room. The house was very well stocked with everything we could need and very comfortable. Our host Aidan was fabulous to deal with and very professional. I highly recommend a stay at the Lighthouse.

Relaxing week in beautiful setting

Our family had a lovely week at The Lighthouse. The weather was a bit patchy but the house allows a spectacular view out to sea, a very short walk down to the surf and beautifully landscaped garden which ensured a pleasant experience in any weather. Aiden was a great communicator and has equipped the house with everything needed to cook and relax in style. Thanks for the booking at short notice.

Amazing property right on the beach

We had a wonderful time and will certainly be back. The host was very kind and helpful and flexible with checkin / checkout times. Pros: - amazing location with 360 degree views of the water - lots of space and not in top of neighbours - direct access to the beach which was dog friendly - property was beautiful and spacious, and extremely dog friendly. Outdoor shower really handy - Culburra is a great location… approx 30 mins or less to Nowra, Shoalhaven heads, Huskisson / Jervis Bay, and a little further to Kangaroo valley and Berry. Lots to do in Culburra but if you want to see a little more in the region, there are several options Thanks for a great stay and also the hamper of chocolate and wine for Easter!

Great house, great view!

Fantastic mid winter stay at The Lighthouse on Culburra Beach. Aidan was great to deal with and the house was exactly as described. Welcomed on arrival by the view and a pre-stacked fire place and outside fire pit, as well as the lovely bottle of wine! The photos of the house and the view don't do either justice. A well equipped kitchen, big deck and direct access down the path to the beach were great. Really enjoyed our stay.

Perfect Location

You couldn't ask for a better position right on the beach! Not only does this house have amazing views of the beach it also has views of the lake. You can watch the sun rise from your bed or the living room & watch the sun set over the lake. Great private access to the beach from the garden & it's particularly well set up for the doggies. My little dog loved running on the beach & playing ball on the lawn. I came for a quiet refuge for peace & relaxation & I certainly achieved that. This property is private compared to a lot of other coastal properties too. Finally Aidan was a lovely attentive yet not at all intrusive host, eager to please. I had a wonderful stay & my dog did too. I highly recommend The Lighthouse.

Best place we have ever stayed even though it rained most days

Family of 4 with a dog, we all really really enjoyed the house. So closed to the beach, we were there even if it was raining. The kids each got to sleep on a queen size bed, such a treat. All the beds were very comfy! Our dog had a special enclosed yard and a doggy door to get out. Not to mentioned he was allowed on the beach and unleashed.. best part of Culburra Beach! The kitchen had everything we could possibly need. The bath very was spacious. We were all very happy and had an amazing and relaxing time. Thank you so much for sharing your amazing place!

Breathtaking view and comfy home

The house was just perfect for our family. It was well stocked with everything you’ll need for a holiday plus more. Amazing view, comfy beds, beautifully furnished and so liveable not to mention the fabulous sonos sound system. It was the perfect setting for a lazy summer holiday. The extras fire pit, outdoor shower, access to beach and dog friendly yard was the icing on the cake. We also got to see dolphins every morning, such a treat! Aidan was so responsive and accomodating and the neighbours were lovely too. You just can’t go wrong! Thanks for a truly memorable summer holiday Aidan!
