Southern Skies; a private getaway just minutes from the beach
Conveniently located within minutes’ walk to the main beach and general store, this spacious modern family beach house welcomes couples and families alike to settle in, relax and enjoy the spacious split level design, quality linen and towels, convenience of the amenities and comfort of this thoughtfully designed home.
Nestled into a neat block within a short stroll to the beach, park and local township of Sandy Point, this home is set amongst tee-trees that are abundant with native birdlife and animals.
The split level layout, light-filled space highlight the timber floors and open plan space in the living area. Tastefully decorated in fresh white earthy tones that are enhanced by the high ceilings in the main living area and the north facing windows flooded with winter sunlight.
The Kitchen is fully equipped with a large, free-standing oven, choice of Bialetti stove-top coffee makers, dishwasher & microwave. The dining table comfortably seats 8 and for the aspiring chefs, we keep sharp quality knifes on hand.
Guest comfort is at top of mind with the quality fly screens and double-glazed windows for temperature control, ceiling fans and the enticing wood fired stove when the temperature outside drops.
The cosy day bed is a welcome retreat on those lazy, warm summer afternoons, with boardgames and reading materials available for guests to enjoy.
The 3 generously sized bedrooms with ample storage, ensure guests are well catered for. Bedding configuration comprises 2 Queen sized beds and one double bed. Quality linen and bath towels are provided for guest convenience and comfort. We ask that guests bring their own beach towels for their stay.
The upstairs bedroom enjoys an ensuite for comfort, with a powder room and full bathroom on the ground floor in between the two bedrooms. An additional toilet compliments the convenience factor on the lower floor.
With 2 outdoor showers, guests are able to rinse off from a trip to the beach and then utilise the convenience of the laundry making it easy to clean up. The laundry is fully equipped with washing machine, clothes line and iron.
The spacious rear deck is great for the kids, sun baking or an afternoon drink on the timber outdoor furniture whilst cooking up a storm on the Weber BBQ, taking in the birdlife & any visiting koalas.
The elevated position of the property enjoys the sea breeze, hypnotising sounds of the surf and the magic views of the clear starry night skies and Milky Way from the front and rear deck.

Everything was fantastic with our stay.The host was friendly, really flexible and a great communicator.The house is stunning. Modern, comfortable, clean, heaps of storage space and spacious. Lots of amenities, everything you need really, without feeling cluttered. Oh and in a perfect location - quiet but close to the shop and beach.Cannot recommend highly enough.
Charming cottage in a great location near the beach! It was very clean and well-kept. The host was easy to reach by text and responded quickly when I had a couple of questions. A lovely, stress-free stay.
This is a really calm place to stay. The beach is just a few steps away and the bird life around the house is amazing.

Thank you Micah for your review. I am so pleased you found the house so calming and were able to enjoy the location of the house to the beach, and the bird life surrounding the house. All the best for the New Year and thank you again for staying with us.
The house was beautiful and had everything that we needed. It has a lovely feel and is in a great location. The house is very clean, well maintained and thanks for the extras, such as coffee and chocolates.
We had a lovely four day stay in this house. Kitchen was well equipped, rooms were tastefully furnished n clean, beds were comfortable.
No in-house wifi, and Internet reception via hot spot was patchy in that area.
Sam was amazing to speak with and organise with. We had to reschedule a few times and sam was understanding and helpful. The house was perfect and the location was great. The house was very clean. Would love to stay again when we can.

Thanks Hannah for the lovely review. I'm so pleased you got to enjoy your stay and that we were able to accommodate the change of dates for your visit. We would love to welcome your return in future. Take care.
A beautiful and practical home tucked away in a quiet area.
Everything you need plus a whole host of things you didn't realise you need (like a resident wombat), it was such a pleasure to stay.
Plenty of room for everyone to have their own space, but I guarantee you'll be fighting over the day bed.

Thank you Colette for your lovely review. I am so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us and settled into the day bed (it is definitely a favorite by many guests!). It was our pleasure to host you for your stay and we would warmly welcome your return. All the best for the New Year.
Sam has a wonderful property, with all the comforts of home. Very spacious house with a nice deck for evening BBQ or morning coffee. Walking dostance to the General store (must buy the Waratah Bay ice cream!) And to the beach. Just a 25min drive to the Prom. Thank you!
What a beautiful house for a lovely secluded getaway. The kitchen was definitely a highlight. My partner and I love to cook so it was great to have a lovely kitchen to use. The whole place was very new and clean. My only feedback would be to have a dvd player. Lots of dvds available to watch but no dvd player itself. Other then that it’s a beautiful home to stay in.

Thank you Louisa for your lovely review. I'm so pleased you enjoyed your stay and were able to make use of the kitchen and it's facilities. It really is a lovely space to cook and prepare food in. I appreciate your feedback on the dvd player; typically we find guests prefer to bring their own electronic devices (laptops) that they can use to stream their entertainment through; however I absolutely recognise the value a player at the premises could provide.
Wishing you a lovely Christmas and many thanks again.
