About this house rental
Perched on the side of a hill this cosy contemporary beach house overlooks the trees and ocean of Emu Bay. The house is private on its 5acres but only 700m from the 4.5km long beach of Emu Bay.
The house is designed as a coastal retreat for its owners and has an intimate connection to its bush surroundings and nearby sea.
The location, the incredible views and the house provide for a perfect retreat, a holiday and a place for relaxation.
The living and outside areas are north facing with views of the sea and bush. One can experience this unique location from all rooms at any time of the day and throughout the seasons. The 4 m long daybed is perfect for reading a book, taking in the view or a nap.
The bedroom has a Queen-size bed with views over the trees to the ocean. It is equipped with a reverse cycle A/C.
The Kitchen and living area is a large open space with an adjoining deck. The stainless steel kitchen has a gas stove and electric oven, and all necessary utensils and cooking requirements.
For cooler days there is an open fire for heating the living area with firewood supplied.
A 4m long day bed at the end of the room looks out over the landscape to the water.

Our hosts were super helpful and oncall when we needed them. The house was perfect, it suited our needs perfectly. The view was gorgeous, kitchen perfect for cooking. Beautifully styled and the window seats were amazing I really can’t fault it. I would definitely return.

It's a beautiful place and we liked the house pretty much. The problem is that you have seen in a minute that it is not proper cleaned. I contacted the owners and there where really nice and helpful. The cleaner came the next day again when we where not there but to be honest, it was not really better. It's a shame and I really think that is the only problem that the owner need someone to rely on.
