Where will I be?
The Black Shack is in the best location in Hyams Beach. It is merely metres from the sand. Spend the evening listening to the waves, and wake each morning to an incredible sunrise over Jervis Bay. Enjoy a gentle stroll along the beach and visit the famous Hyams Beach Cafe which is only a short walk up the road.
Why choose Black Shack?
Be the envy of everyone by having stayed in Hyams' most exclusive beach shack. Fashion designer Nicola Waite has designed this beautiful minimalist beach retreat with her dramatic creative signature. The Black Shack, although right in the centre of Hyams Beach, has a sense of total privacy, allowing the most relaxing of holidays.

The Black Shack is completely open plan and the design elements flow through into each of the clearly defined areas. The interior space has lime-washed wooden floors and stylised furnishings complimentary to the black interior throughout. The well equipped kitchen has an electric oven, ceramic cooktop, integrated dishwasher and bar fridge with freezer. The open screened master bedroom has a queen bed styled with luxury linen. The small second bedroom with a double bed is accessed via the master or, for greater privacy, from one of the rear decks. The walk-in wet room has floor to ceiling concrete tiles and complimentary Aesop toiletries are provided for guest use, making the Black Shack a truly opulent experience. There is an external European style laundry on the side of the front deck with both washing machine and clothes dryer.
