About this property
The Eagles Nest: A Cosy, Coastal Retreat
Ideally located just leisurely 10-minute stroll to the Rye foreshore and strip of restaurants, cafes and boutique shopping, and offering panoramic views across the coast, enjoy a welcoming, open layout and pet-friendly outdoor areas, plus modern conveniences including air-conditioning and in-unit laundry. Fire up the BBQ and dine alfresco on the spacious deck while enjoying expansive, leafy views, settle in on the sofa with a movie and making use of a cosy fireplace over the cooler months.
You'll be welcomed by an open-plan kitchen and dining area with everything that’s needed to cook and enjoy meals at home, including a four-seater table, while floor-to-ceiling glass doors allow natural light to pour in as well as frame the stunning views looking towards the ocean. Adjoining the kitchen you’ll find a cosy living area complete with a sofa and armchairs where you can kick back and watch TV after a day at the beach, while split system air-conditioning ensures year-round comfort and an indoor fireplace keeps everyone cosy on chilly evenings.
From the living area, glass doors slide open to a generously sized deck, where a six-seater table and shade umbrella provide the perfect setting for casual alfresco dining while you soak up the ocean breezes, listen to the sounds of the abundant birdlife, and take in leafy, sweeping views overlooking Rye. A small, pet-friendly backyard offers additional space to play and socialise outdoors.
The light-filled master bedroom features a king-size bed and the second bedroom, accessed with bi-fold doors off the living area, has a queen-size bed, while an immaculately presented bathroom offers all the essentials including soap, shampoo, conditioner and a hairdryer.
Additional conveniences include WiFi, a washing machine, and parking for 4-5 cars on the premises as well as free street parking 24/7.
During your stay, you and your group will have the entire house to yourself. Please make yourself at home!
Family-friendly Rye Beach is five minutes' drive, where you can take a dip or snorkel, with white sand and clear water. The beach is in proximity to cafes, ice creameries, take-away shops and cafes, you'll also find BBQ facilities and picnic spots.
For a relaxing experience close to home, the award-winning Peninsula Hot Springs are less than 10 minutes' drive. Indulge at the day spa and enjoy the natural thermal mineral waters that flow through the pools and private baths.
Due to local regulations, we can happily host you for up to 90 nights. Any bookings that exceed this duration will be cancelled by Vrbo.
We are pet-friendly - please add the number of pets you're travelling with and let us know about your furry friend at the time of booking. We’ll reach out to charge a standard pet fee of $50.
There is a security camera located at the top of the stairs which also serves as a flood light.
