About this property
Illaroo - Absolute Beachfront with Spa
2022 Award Winner - Best Spa Property
Start your day with an espresso at the breakfast bar or out on the sunlit deck, and head down the private path to Culburra Beach to sink your toes into the golden sands of one of the South Coast’s finest beaches in less than a minute. Swim, surf, or just float in crystal clear water and dry off under the shining sun whilst the kids splash in the waves.
Shower off the sand in one of the two outdoor showers, and enjoy lunch cooked in the modern kitchen or out on the BBQ deck. After eating, the kids will be entertained in either of two entertaining areas with TV, DVDs, Netflix, a gaming console and board games, whilst the adults sink into relaxation across multiple outdoor decks. Grab some cold ones and the blutooth speaker and enjoy the spa directly outside the master bedroom, or get some privacy by taking a book out to one of the loungers or deck chairs closer to the beach.
On a chillier day, enjoy the heating and read or write in the upstairs study with marvellous ocean and bush views. The video door intercom will ensure that no one will stay locked out, and a self-contained apartment adjoining the house will give separate couples the extra privacy they need.
When the weather is perfect as it often is, enjoy the beach and some fabulous bushwalks, head down to nearby Penguin Head with its breathtaking view off the headland, or explore the local shops and restaurants. There’s so much to see and do, and so many different ways to unwind. However you spend your time in this beautiful vista, Illaroo will ensure you’ll make happy memories to last a lifetime.

About the host
Hosted by Professional Holiday Homes

Our name is Professional Holiday Homes and we aim to live up to the word “Professional” in everything we do. The formula for our properties is based on the award winning holiday homes created by our CEO.
Our approach to property management is that we want you to feel that the property is your own for a few days. As such we limit our communications to a few important emails, but otherwise we will leave you alone! If you are looking for a host that provides welcome platters on arrival, champagne in the fridge and who will contact you throughout your stay, we may not be the right host for you.
What you will get from us are well equipped, fairly priced, pet and family friendly holiday homes that are loved by their owners.
We work in a people business and very infrequently things go wrong - if this happens we will do our best to rectify the situation immediately. In busy periods it may take us a few hours to get to messages so picking up the phone is the fastest and best way for us to provide you with the support you need in an urgent situation.
As we are a licensed real estate agent you can be assured that all properties are fully insured, meet fire safety standards and are registered with NSW planning.
Don’t just book any holiday home, choose a Professional Holiday Home!
