About this property
Esplanade Escape: Beachfront Family Bliss
Wake to ocean breezes at this freshly renovated retreat, just steps from Thirroul Beach. Savour alfresco meals on two sunlit balconies, cook in the brand new kitchen, and unwind in two modern bathrooms. With two inviting living zones, a study nook, and secure parking, this coastal haven blends relaxation with convenience. Stroll to Thirroul village for local cafés, boutiques and supermarkets, then soak up ocean views from Sea Cliff Bridge or enjoy a family day out at nearby Symbio Wildlife Park.
Step into a beachside apartment on the Esplanade, originally built as two separate apartments and now thoughtfully combined into one spacious home. Unwind across two spacious living zones, each curated for comfort and connection. Stretch out on soft lounges, stream your favourite show, or enjoy the natural light pouring through wide windows. Settle into the dedicated workspace to read, write, or catch up on emails.
Cook up a storm in the fully renovated kitchen, equipped with an oven, dishwasher, microwave and a coffee machine. Gather at the large dining table and share a feast with family or friends while admiring the park views just beyond the glass. For a laid-back afternoon, step on one of two private balconies, each furnished with alfresco seating, perfect for soaking in the morning sun or unwinding with a glass of wine as the sea breeze rolls in.
Drift off to sleep in one of three beautifully appointed bedrooms, each with ample storage, ceiling fans and blackout blinds for a restful sleep. Sink into one of two queen-sized bedrooms, or settle little ones or friends into the third room with two king-single beds. Refresh in either of the two modern bathrooms, each featuring walk-in rain showers, elegant vanities and premium finishes. Keep things fresh with a private washer in the laundry room.
Stay comfortable year-round with split-system air conditioning and heating in the living areas and ceiling fans throughout. Park with ease using free street parking nearby. Please note that the fourth bedroom and the second kitchen are locked and not accessible to guests.
During your stay, you and your group will have the entire apartment to yourself. Please make yourself at home!
The trendy seaside suburb of Thirroul lies roughly 15 minutes north of Wollongong and just over an hour south of Sydney. Drive here via the photogenic Sea Cliff Bridge, which juts out over the water and has become an icon of the Grand Pacific Drive.
Stop for lunch at The Scarborough Hotel, taking in spectacular views across the sea. Hit the waves at Thirroul Beach before brunch at one of the neighbourhood’s popular cafes, such as Blackbird, Wilde or South Sailor. If you’re travelling with the kids, don’t miss a day out at Symbio Wildlife Park or Jamberoo Action Park, both close by.
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.
