2022 Award Winner - Most improved bookings (2021 to 2022)
With its light-filled indoor living area, broad outdoor deck and extensive entertainment, you’ll be settled in for a relaxing stay from the moment you arrive.
From sunrise to sunset, Sapphire Sands will provide you with everything you need to enjoy your stay in the beautiful coastal town of Callala Beach. Wake up to the sound of waves crashing on the beach nearby and make yourself an espresso to enjoy at the breakfast bar under the morning light coming through the almost floor to ceiling windows. When the urge strikes to have your first swim of the day, you can grab a towel and be on the beach in one minute flat to sink your toes into the stunning white sands of Callala Beach and after swimming in the sparkling waves, come back and rinse off in the heated outdoor shower (or any of the three large indoor ones—no long lines for the bathroom in this house). After that, your only problem is deciding how to spend the rest of your day in one of the most beautiful places in the country.
Stay inside comfortably in any kind of weather with the gas fireplace (where you can watch the flames dance behind glass) and relax in front of the TV with DVDs and Netflix at your fingertips. For a break from technology, gather around a board game to battle it out, or send the kids out to the backyard for a game of catch while you grab a book to read on one of the many comfortable couches. When mealtimes come around, we have a very well-equipped kitchen, including a 6 gas burner Ilve freestanding cooker. We aim to provide everything you might need in the kitchen to make your stay hassle-free. The owners have supplied bowls and a dog bed for your fur baby, and the nearest beach has dog-friendly hours, so your pets are guaranteed to enjoy their time as much as the humans.
Once you’re fed and rested, it’s time to see the sights; the shining sands and sparkling waves continue for kilometers around Jervis Bay, so go on leisurely walks along the shore, keep an eye out for dolphins not far away, and breathe in the fresh sea air for as long as you like. If you want a respite from the sun but the kids still want a swim, or the clouds come over, this property has access to the Benton Sands Estate indoor heated pool, where everyone can play in the water undercover.
The owners recommend catching the ferry across to Huskisson for lunch, local boutique shopping, and of course all the natural bay attractions…dolphin cruises, whale watching, and bay tours. Hire a kayak, stand up paddle board, or take an evening sunset wine and cheese cruise and learn about the amazing natural beauty of this area. We would also highly recommend a trip to Two Figs winery for the spectacular views over the Shoalhaven river and beyond. And of course, do stay and enjoy a wine tasting and some gourmet goodies. Of course, you could spend all of your holidays at Sapphire Sands, enjoying the world-acclaimed Callala Beach and Jervis Bay, all just a short stroll away.

What a gorgeous open, airy and relaxing house. We had a very comfortable stay with our toy poodle and enjoyed the quiet locality.

Thank you for your feedback! We're delighted you loved the house and amenities, and that the indoor pool was a hit with the kids. The nearby coastal walking path is definitely a bonus. We’d love to have you back for another great stay.
We had a wonderful time staying here, but wish it was longer. It was so easy to get to the beach through the track across the road. The house was really spacious and comfortable. The kids loved being able to use the pool close by too. Thanks for having us to stay.

Great spot, not too busy. The home is bigger than the pictures suggest and was very well equiped. It was perfect for our group of 5. Beach access is super close and the pool was wonderful for the kids on the rain days. Will stay again!

Great house for 3 generations to stay near the sea.

Loved the house and the community pool was handy as it wasn’t quite warm enough for the beach. I have no complaints- everything worked well and we had a great time.

Beautifully appointed property just across road from the beach. Even on a very cold weekend in June the house was warm and cozy just from the gas fire place. Kitchen thoughtfully stocked with pantry essentials.
Thoroughly recommend.
