About this house rental
My name is Tim and it is my pleasure to offer you a stay at my families beachside holiday house - it is our family's oasis. Family groups love our 3 Queen beds!
Bring the family as well as your friends to stay overnight at our charming, well appointed beach house. Set on 3/4 of an acre and abutting 65 acre Citation Reserve, you will relax as soon as you walk in and survey the views out over the reserve from the kitchen. The gorgeous balcony, shaded slightly by mottled leaves of the James Stirling and Silver Birch, has been the setting for many a summer's evening dinner party.
Walk to the beach down the Balcombe Creek estuary boardwalk.
A 20 minute stroll to Mt Martha shops and beach along the Balcombe Creek boardwalk is the best way to start anybody's day! If you need some exercise, or just some peace and solitude, the boardwalk is a wonderful place to walk and catchup with your thoughts, or just walk the dog away from the hustle and bustle!
You can listen to the birds on the deck at breakfast, or watch the kookaburra's on the balcony which wraps around the whole house.
Pets welcome, with prior permission.
The property has 3 Queen beds, all new or near new, 2 bunks for the kids, a spare single mattress for the kids friends, and a very large master bedroom. We have had many guests over 12+ years, and they have all commented on how peaceful our retreat is.
Feel free to ask me to visit to inspect prior to booking. (Minimum 3-night stay post-Christmas/January). Registration no is STRA0172/18.

Property was well presented and clean. Beds were comfortable. Upstairs had good A/C which was needed on a 40 degree day! Lovely outlook amongst the trees. Excellent location.Downstairs bathroom has a shower over bath with a considerable step down and temperature of shower hard to regulate due to low pressure, this is not suitable for elderly visitors however upstairs bathroom excellent and suitable.
8 / 10Excellent·Nov 2025
Host welcoming, amenities okay, except BBQ which was not fit to use. Did not look at the hot tub due to inclement weather. Building in need of a good clean outside and inside. Beds comfortable, main bedroom needs a door! Not only for privacy but more important noise.Steep driveway should be mentioned in description. Pleasant surroundings but all very tired.
6 / 10Average·Jan 2025
The location is amazing adjacent to the Balcombe santuary and if you have dogs, this is a great place to be as there are many walks for them. The house however needs updating with the aircon not being available in the master bedroom upstairs making it diffcult to sleep on warm nights despite having fans.The host was well responsive to messages and this was reassuring that our needs would be catered to even before we arrived.
