I had a fantastic stay at this charming beach cottage! The place was cozy, clean, and had everything we needed for a relaxing break. One of the best parts was that it’s pet-friendly, my dog loved it just as much as I did! The location couldn’t have been better. Just a short walk to the beach, which made morning and evening strolls so easy and enjoyable. The town itself is lovely — quiet, welcoming. I had a great time exploring the local cafes; there were so many different spots to try, each with its own unique vibe.

Lovely accommodation

Very pleased to have booked at Pearly Shells. The accommodation was perfect for a short beach stay with kids and dog. It's well stocked with everything needed, so close to the beach and shops. We loved the outside shower after a swim, and had plenty of space with the deck and yard. Would love to book again.

Magnificent Pearly Shells Getaway!

We were a family of 4 with our new puppy Zylo. We desperately needed a place to stay, for 5 days, over Christmas. The Hosts were wonderful at communicating and there house was a treasure! 2 minute stroll down to the beach.

Great location for a weekend away near the beach

Visited Culburra when coming down to the Husky running festival with my brother. Was a great place to unwind after the race close to the beach and great local coffee places. The house was roomy, had all the ameneties we could want and games including some backyard cricket if it was a bit overcast. Check in and out was easy! Highly recommend.

Great house for a great time

We stayed in this beautiful property for a long weekend - the hosts were lovely and had great communication. The cottage is well equiped, clean and spacious - the best part was the verandah which was huge and we spend most of our time there. The beach is 5 minute walk down the street and the community is quiet and relaxing - we could not have asked for a better birthday weekend away. thank and we will be back.

Great!

Pearly Shells was a delight to stay at! Great location... the beach is just short walk to the end of the street and it's only a 10-15 min walk to the local shops and cafes. The property was very clean and has everything that you need. The doggos loved it too!

It was pristine

I've never stayed in such a clean and well appointed holiday place before. There wasn't a speck of dust anywhere, everything was gleaming even the outside table. The little garden was so tidy and our two dogs loved it. The beach is only 300 metres away. I can't rate the property highly enough and will be rebooking it at a later date

Perfect getaway

Stayed for a few days with elderly parents and their little dog- It was perfect. All the details are covered- there was plenty of blankets, pillows and towels, including beach towels. The kitchen was well equipped with beyond the basics making it truly useful. The outdoor area was fabulous, well protected and comfortable. The yard is securely fenced for our little Doggo. There was lots of little extras that get you out of trouble if you forgot something. Brilliant for a few days or a couple of weeks

Had a great time

We had a great time at Pearly Shells. The house is lovely and was very clean when we arrived. Very close to the beach. The weather wasn't the best when we stayed but we were still able to sit outside on the lovely verandah. Gemma and Rani the German Shepherds loved their holiday too. Just a suggestion. You need some oven mitts or maybe there was some and I just couldn't find them. Also something under the casters on the bed to stop it moving. We will definitely be back though.

Loved our stay, pearly shells was perfect for us! Just one small suggestion, an extra lounge chair/ottoman/chaise would have made our stay a little more comfortable so everyone could watch a movie on the couch. The location was amazing; walking distance to everything you need - shops, beach, bowling club, skate park!

Lovely, modern beach style granny flat/cabin with spacious deck and garden for the dog. Short walk to the beach but unfortunately the access at the end of the street had all been eroded by the recent storms so we couldn’t get down on to the beach there and we had to drive to another part of the beach. The bed wasn’t very comfortable- way too hard and the lounge was uncomfortable too. No coffee machine but town only a short walk away for a good coffee. Had a lovely stay despite neighbours having an all night party, it was pretty quiet and relaxing with perfect weather, lots of whales and dolphins just off the beach.
