A wonderful stay!

Great location, very close to the beach and local shops! The property was clean and there were plenty of extras such as beach toys and games to play for the wet days. The outdoor dining area was extremely enjoyable too! Our family loved the stay - thank you!

Perfect location & nicely appointed Beach House

We stayed at the ‘Beach Shack’ at Callala Beach for 2 nights & loved it! The house was compact but comfortably accommodated the 4 of us. A 2 minute walk to the beach & access to an awesome Italian restaurant. Kirstin was responsive with communications & the booking process & flexible with our check in & out times. We loved our stay at the Beach Shack & we’ll definitely rebook in the future.

Perfect place right next to the beach

Our group of 5 had a great stay at Kirstin’s place. The location is perfect - right across the beautiful Callala Beach. The house is only a short 5 minutes drive from the shops (must try Remo’s pies). Kirstin provided a storage box full of activities and body boards which was such a lovely touch. Thank you for the stay Kirstin!

Perfect long weekend!

We, a family of four adults and two kids (1.5 and 5 yo), had an amazing time at Callala Beach area for the Australia day long weekend.The Shack @ Callala is located a mere 100m from the beach so we could just walk in and out the beach throughout the day, very convenient. The house itself has got every we needed, including beach toys (the kids loved them!). Restaurants are just a stone throw from the house (the Calabrisella and the fish & chips shops are must try!).Overall, we're pretty happy with our stay.

Host was very welcoming. Place was relatively clean and comfortable. Kitchen well equipped and has everything you need, including extra items for beach days which is nice. Location is great.However the place needs a bit of TLC. Door hardware was hanging off doors, shower screen not fixed in properly and could potentially fall, outdoor shower walls not very stable, floor tiles loose with lots of grout missing. Grass very dry and not mowed, making the large back yard pretty useless. No aircon was the biggest downside. A simple split unit would completely change the stay experience. Overall ok.

Response from VrboOwner on 18 Jan 2026
Thank you for taking time to give your feedback. Unfortunately, we were only informed about the broken cupboard door in the main bedroom right before you arrived so we were unable to address this issue and we apologize for this. We are also disappointed that the lawn was not tended to, as we have contracted someone to do this regularly. The air-conditioning is something that we will add for next summer especially as the weather is getting more and more extreme. Thank you for highlighting all these issues for us and we will work to rectify them for future guests.

Quintessential beach house

Great stay at The Shack. The location is AMAZING. Quiet neighbourhood, 2 minute walk to the beach, a fantastic pizza place over the road, kids playground right out front. The house was very comfortable and clean. A big garden which was used for a few games of cricket, an array of beach toys, an outdoor covered area and the all important outdoor shower for washing the beach off. There is no aircon, which was made clear on the listing, but there were fly screens on all the windows and doors and we got a lovely breeze through the house, plus there were fans in every room. Thanks Kirstin for the great communication and the recommendations, especially Mr Nobody for gelato!

Awesome Quick Getaway

We had an absolutely wonderful time during our stay at The Shack. The location is incredibly convenient, just a few meters away from the beach. The house itself was impeccably clean and impressively well stocked with everything one could possibly need and more. Kirstin, the host, has truly thought of every little detail to ensure a worry-free and enjoyable stay. One of the highlights for our family was the backyard, where our kids had a blast playing badminton. It provided a great space for outdoor activities and added an extra layer of fun to our vacation. And of course, the beach was a major hit with the kids as well. They couldn't get enough of the sandy shores and the inviting waters. We cannot speak highly enough of The Shack and the efforts made by Kirstin to make our stay memorable. If you're looking for a convenient, well-maintained, and fully equipped vacation rental, this is definitely the place to go. Thank you for an incredible experience!"

Ultra-relaxed beach holiday

Our family of four enjoyed a few idyllic days relaxing at Kirstin's place at Callala Beach. The house itself is comfortable, well-equipped and super clean. We spent a lot of time lounging around in the outdoor area at the back of house, which catches a lovely sea breeze. Proximity to the beach meant we visited several times a day for child-friendly boogie boarding, shell collecting, swimming and digging. Kirstin's local tips ensured we ate the best gelato, pizza and fish and chips. A wonderful break for us all.

Comfortable beach holiday

The Shack @ Callala was simple and perfect for a very happy & comfortable beach getaway. Host Kirstin was lovely, helpful and quick to respond to questions and the house was clean & well supplied with the basics. Best was the location, literally no more than a 2 minute dawdle to the beach and plus a big box of beach toys and body boards, no need to BYO. Beds were very comfortable, the decoration perfect for the beach location. No air con but open windows & fans provided a comfortable nights sleep upstairs and the sea breeze kept cool air circulating downstairs. Thank you Kirstin - We look forward to future stays!

beach holiday heaven

The house is a simple beach shack. It is not flash and there is no air con, but it had everything we needed, is close to the beach and we had a wonderful time here. The outdoor shower with hot water was great for washing the sand off before going inside. It is a fantastic beach and so close from the house.

Perfect beach getaway

'The Shack' is a great place to stay. The house is super close to the beach, so close I took my morning coffee to the beach and drank it there. The house is tastefully decorated with all that you need for a beach holiday. We were two families and even though it felt a bit cosy it didn't matter because the beach was so close. Beds were comfortable too! We'd definitely stay again and thanks Kirstin for being a great host!
