This modern sun-filled home is beautifully furnished and perfect as a base for your family holiday down the coast. Inside you can relax with the family on the many couches and watch Netflix in the air conditioning in the living and kitchen spaces, or head outside and relax in the sun-soaked backyard in a deck chair with a cold drink and some tunes on the portable Bluetooth speaker. This fully renovated property has plenty of room to relax inside or outside, with two living areas, two dining areas, an upstairs balcony and a plant-filled backyard to spread out across, with a secure fence to keep your pets safe and happy whilst you unwind.
When it’s time for dinner you can whip up a meal in the kitchen or enjoy the cooling sea breeze as you cook up a storm on the backyard BBQ, then turn in comfortably for the night across three queen bedrooms and two sofa beds. In the morning you can wake up well-rested, shower in the ensuite, and wake up slowly with a cup of tea on the balcony and a view of beautiful native trees, or enjoy a Nespresso at the breakfast bar to fuel a full day of adventure.
Culburra Beach is two minutes away, as is Penguin Head with its breathtaking view off the headland. There is a bike in the garage that will give the kid freedom to explore the town, beach toys are available for fun-filled days, and the heated outdoor shower will ensure no beach bums track sand across the house. There’s so much to see and do in this gorgeous coastal town, and so many different ways to unwind. However you spend your time in this beautiful vista, Thalassa will ensure you’ll make happy memories to last a lifetime.

Our dogs had the best holiday. They were exhausted by lunch time. The adults loved it too. The track to the beach is just across the road and the house has everything you could possibly need.Beautiful area.

Stay was good. A few more towels would be nice. And beach towels.
We enjoyed the stay very much as it is quiet, clean and close to shops and beaches.
If the rooms have air-conditioning it would be even more comfortable during hot nights. Also, the light bulbs in the kitchen need to be changed.
Overall, it is a very nice house to stay.

Thankyou Jennifer for leaving us a stellar review. We pride ourselves on cleanliness and are pleased to hear we’ve met your expectations. It makes us happy to know you enjoyed the relaxing holiday location and the house amenities were to your family satisfaction, and we look forward to having you all again. We appreciate your feedback and have passed your comments onto our maintenance team.
I have no hesitation in recommending this property .... we all (6 adults and a 4yr old Groodle) thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and felt very much at home.
Not only was the apartment clean, modem and well appointed, it’s also in a perfect location.
We’re already planning a return holiday!

We loved our stay at Thalassa. It is well equipped with plenty of room for the family, including the four legged member. Great location for exploring the beautiful south coast, morning walks on the beach and an afternoon dip in the ocean. Far enough away from the hustle and bustle but with everything we needed nearby. Only regret is that we couldn't stay longer.

What a great time we had at Thalassa in the friendly little town of Culburra Beach, even the dogs out walking come over to say hell. We had very generous hosts who supplied all we needed and more. Great Location so near the beach and Woollies, comfortable rooms and beds, working TV's and free internet, All 6 of us were very happy.

That's fantastic to hear Ken. Sounds like you'll have to visit us in Culburra again sometime!
When I say perfect in the title I really mean it. There is nothing not to like about this home. Just a very short walk to a beautiful beach. Beautiful home, perfectly presented in a clean, well equipped and nicely furnished condition. Main bedroom has comfortable bed and a balcony. You can fall asleep listening to the sound of the nearby ocean.

The property was very clean and professionally managed. A charming place, very quiet and all amenities provided. Netflix and good wifi available. Very happy with the location. A stone’s throw away from spectacular beach sunrises. A coffee shop 3 mins away is a lovely daily treat. Get a bucket of gelato. We will be back. Thank you for a lovely family holiday!

Great location and space, unfortunately just filthy and needed a good scrub and pest spray. Constantly getting mice droppings daily in the kitchen, hall, laundry and garage. Had to throw out food. The whole place needed scrubbing and cleaning of dust and cobwebs and dirt. Main bedroom curtains and sliding door absolutely dirty and dusty. Felt tired and outdoor furniture old and worn. Couldn’t really relax anywhere. 50% Kitchen lights not working, dining table needed fixing as super loose screws and couldn’t use bbq as in filthy garage surrounded in mice droppings. Ants in pantry and left over food in cupboard, fridge/freezer needed a good clean. Certainly not worth $2800 for 3 nights! Felt very ripped off. Shame as great location.

Great place to stay, great check in and out. Loved the bath. Grass out back gets quite muddy with the rain, so of course the lab went rolling around it all straight away!

Property was in great condition and amenities were excellent. The location is just brilliant, a short walk to the beach.
We found the stairs steep and narrow and reading the description you get the impression the entire property is air conditioned, but it is just the kitchen area. We found upstairs very hot, especially for sleeping.

Everything about the property was fantastic, it was in an excellent location super close to the beach and a short walk to the shop and restaurants.
The bedrooms were a bit warm at night but other than that everything was perfect and the entire group would stay again.

Thanks for the awesome review, and for choosing to stay with us. We’re delighted you had a great time, and hope you can stay with us again soon.
The property is listed as having aircon sadly it is only downstairs though. The house is really nice, the only issue we had apart from the beds being very firm was with the neighbour, we parked on the street out the front as per instructions & the neighbour came by & rudely told us to move our car as street parking out the front was for their guests, of which none came during our stay. Would stay again, just when the neighbour isn't there 😂

Loved staying in this house.
There were 8 of us that stayed.
Used three comfortable bedrooms upstairs and the sofa bed downstairs (the sofa bed isn’t big enough for 2 adults, 2 children slept there fine tho).
Close to the beach. Great hard for doggies.
Rebecca from the holiday letting was amazing to deal with!
