About this house rental
2022 Award Winner - Highest Performing - 4 Bedroom
A one minute walk out the back door and you’ll be sinking your toes into the golden sands of one of the South Coast's finest pet friendly beaches. There you can swim, surf, boogie board or just float under perfect blue skies.
Where your four-legged friend can run for kilometres and the kids can splash in the waves whilst the family relax.
This magnificent, architect designed two level residence provides every comfort and convenience. With glass doors opening out to beautiful entertaining terraces on both levels, Oceanside is filled with light and fresh breezes sweeping off the ocean.
From the elevated deck with beach views, you can choose to relax and listen to the waves crash or maybe sip a glass of wine on whilst you watch the sunset over the beach. The downstairs terrace with huge outdoor lounge is the ideal spot to chill out with a board game or snooze in the sun. In the evening you can gather round the fire pit overlooking the beach and toast marshmallows whilst you watch the sunset turn to the most magnificent display of the Milky Way you’ve ever seen. For Pet owners a large, fully secure front garden allows dogs to have fun whilst the kids have a bounce on the trampoline (please note that rear garden is not fenced on the beach side).
When you do come inside your only difficulty will be deciding how to relax. With both an expansive living room on the upper floor as well as a large rumpus room on the ground floor, the whole family has space to relax. Maybe kick back on the couch and enjoy Netflix or Stan on the big screen TV or simply enjoy the toasty glow from the upstairs gas fire. Whilst the kids and the dog play downstairs you can be busy uploading your amazing holiday photos using the complimentary unlimited wifi.
When it’s finally time to hit the hay, you’ll find 4 bedrooms with mattresses as soft as clouds, warm showers and bath and extra pillows and blankets if you need them.
This specially designed house with polished concrete floors will keep you so cool and comfortable that you won’t want to get up the next day. But you’ll already know from our exclusive guidebook that there are so many things to see and do in the Culburra area – from where to shop and where to dine out to in-the-know local knowledge of the area’s “hidden secrets” that you’ll want to jump out of bed and explore. But before you head out for the day be sure to enjoy a lazy holiday breakfast on the terrace where you can fry up a feast on the huge BBQ or inside in the fully equipped gourmet kitchen.
Holidays are precious and memories are forever. We invite you to make beautiful family memories with us at Oceanside @ Culburra.

4.0 / 5.0
Everything was nice but the only thing we had trouble with was the walk down to the beach from the property. It was a struggle for both my parents and my children as you had to walk between shrubs and it was also quite steep. The way wasn’t paved out properly. I wouldn’t recommend elderly to take the property as it would be a complete struggle to access the beach.

Amazing - cld not fault anything or ask for anything more. Absolutely the winning formula!

Well set out for a large family with 2 living spaces. Access to the beach was great and in an easy location to early shops. We would definitely stay here again.

Distractions from our valuable family time
Oceanside
161 Marina Lane
Culburra
The 2nd June 2022 was planned as family time being together for a few days with my 86 year old father. Dad has terminal liver cancer with under 2 months to live. There were 4 generations of us spending time together with Dad being able to escape and sleep when he needed to. My sister and her sons were down from Brisbane; my daughter, her husband and 1year old; my husband and I and Dad from Sydney. My husband and son in law were joining us after work staying Friday and Sat nights only.
Seven of us arrived on the Thursday afternoon. While we loved the house and location we were greatly disappointed that there were in fact only 4 bed rooms when the place was advertised as having 5 and accommodating 12 people. This was not ideal and this was our first disappointment. We also found an empty Cruiser bottle on the book shelf.
Thursday night following dinner the dishwasher would not work. We tried again in the morning unsuccessfully. The last thing you want to do when away is manually wash dishes. I contacted Professional Holiday Homes and they sent out a handyman who discovered a rusty screw was preventing the door of the dishwasher from closing. Once he corrected this the dishwasher worked.
This was the weekend we had the freezing blizzard winds from the south. The gas heater kept the upstairs area lovely and warm.
On Friday afternoon there was no hot water for doing the dishes or have a shower and I could not light the gas heater. It was cold and my poor father wore his beanie, slippers and was rugged up with blankets barely keeping warm. Thinking the weekend was looming we needed this issue corrected. I spent some time on the Professional Holiday Homes website looking for who to call as there was no answer form their listed phone number. The second number was the recommended number to call but ‘unable to answer your call right now’ was the response. I then contacted the plumber on call and the female that answered said I would be up for a charge if I got them out which put me off. Thinking I should investigate further, I rang the last number listed, I had not yet called and it was the wonderful handyman. He came out and agreed that both large bottles were empty. He went away and returned with a small BBQ size gas bottle and we had hot water again. He was not able to get the gas heater to ignite at all and suggested I contact Professional Holiday Homes in the morning.

3.0 / 5.0
Lovely house, great location BUT...
Starting with the positives:
The location of this property is amazing, the house has direct beach access from the backyard, and it was very close to the city centre for the many quick trips to the shops (Woolies is really close by). The house is also a stunning house aesthetically, a great size for a bigger group and it is pet friendly.
Negatives:
Ant and Insect Infested. This house was absolutely infested with ants and other insects. I read the previous Stayz reviews and thought people were maybe being a little bit precious as a few bugs are expected by the beach. However, this house was infested, ants especially were EVERYWHERE. The gathering of ants and insects was instant too, throughout the house, not just in the kitchen where you might have expected a few ants/bugs. We also awoke to find ants in my baby’s portable cot, it was bad. And no amount of bug spray made any difference. This house needs a proper fumigation.
Broken fly screens and no ceiling fans. We stayed during a very wet and humid week (floods all up the east coast of Australia) and it was awful withstanding this without fly screens and only a pedestal fan. We went out and bought a few pedestal fans from Woolies to ease the discomfort.
Standing water. There was standing water up the side of the property which caused a really bad smell that the downstairs family members had to withstand. It was unpleasant for them, we also bought scented candles at Woolies.
Check In is 4pm - such a waste of a day. We arrived at 445pm and the cleaner was also still there cleaning. The cleaner did a great job considering all the bugs she needs to clean up each stay.
No clothes dryer. The dryer was broken. When you travel with a big group, a baby and the humidity would not allow anything to air dry, this was very annoying.
We were advised that the property managers/owners are fully aware of all the issues but have not done anything to rectify things, which is why I decided to write a review instead. I was tossing up between this property and another, I wish I listened to the reviews and chose the other property now. As a family of health workers, holidays are few and incredibly hard to arrange so it was disappointing to pay a months wage and for there to be as many negatives as there were. Its unfortunate for us, but hopefully the property managers/owners fix things for future customers as this house is actually a really lovely house.

Perfect beach holiday home
This home is the perfect spot for a beach holiday. The house is very spacious and well equipped. The front and backyard have lots of space and there is even a trampoline and plenty of toys to keep the kids entertained. The best part is the short track straight on to the beach behind the house. We’d highly recommend this holiday home and hope to return one day! However, unfortunately, the fly screens were still broken despite a review highlighting this from December, the dishwasher rack was also broken which made it a bit hard to use and the dryer had an out of order note on it which was a bit inconvenient. The owner should also be advised that a tree has come down in the backyard. Hopefully these things can be fixed up before too long to make the stay even more comfortable.

Lovely Spot
We went for our Nephews wedding and the house was great! Just sorry we couldn’t stay longer. Just a couple of things wrong, the dish washer didn’t work properly, would have liked to be able to turn on the beautiful chandelier in the stairwell, nowhere to hang clothes in the main bedroom, no towel rails to hang hand towels & no microwave.

Beautiful house, but needs maintenance and cleaning
This is our second stay at this beautifully designed and fabulously located property. Sadly, in the intervening 3 months there has been quite a lot of maintenance which has not been kept up. Fly screens on the main sliding doors upstairs both broken, with lots of mozzies about. Broken blind downstairs. Louvre windows very dirty and covered in cobwebs. Kitchen cleanliness marginal.
For the price, we really felt it should be better maintained.
There was one small pedestal fan but given the western facing rear of the house this is not really enough.
We also booked with 3pm checkin and 11am checkout but prior to arrival we were informed dit was now 4pm and 10am. With some negotiation the agency did relent and agree to the original terms but still annoying.
All in all we would be reluctant to book this place again at this price unless these issues were clearly addressed. We notice from earlier reviews in the past couple of months that similar problems have been noted.

Good Location. Needs some TLC
The house is in a fabulous location however it needs a really good spring clean and some basic maintenance. The bunk beds are not fit for purpose and very unstable. The children could not sleep safely on the top bunks. The kitchen cupboards and fridge are grubby. I communicated the issues with the manager and didn't get a response. For the money paid this is well below expectations. The house has no aircon so be aware of this when staying in Summer. Disappointing.

Beachfront bliss
House is in an amazing location with direct access to spectacular Culburra beach - walks on the beach with the dogs as the sun rose was our highlight! The house itself is large and modern and well equipped for the most part. It’s a little tired for such a new house and needs some maintenance - electrics blew in a rain storm, microwave didn’t work, only half of burners on BBQ worked, but didn’t really detract from a great week away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
2.0 / 5.0
The house was great for several families as there as plenty of space and options. Trampoline was a hit with the kids as was the easy proximity to the beach. Beach access would be difficult for less able persons. Bed comfort was ok (what you would expect from a holiday), however bunk beds in need of repair in order or be safe. TV and internet access was great and lots of toys and board games for the entertainment of all.Cleanliness wasn’t great on arrival, however not terrible either. No fans or air conditioning, which was ok as there is usually a nice sea breeze, however we didn’t have hot weather, so not sure what this would be like on a hot day. Overall a great family holiday. We would return

Conflicting checkin and chekout times & not clean BBQ & cookware
Our confirmation email had a checkin time of 3pm, when we arrived at 3pm the cleaners were still there and told us checkin wasn’t until 4pm. Our confirmation email had a checkout time of 11am, but the SMS the day before departure advised we had to be out by 10am. The BBQ and pans were very dirty and had to be cleaned before we could use them.

Family get together
A great house in a beautiful location with plenty of room for our 3 families. Very comfortable beds with good bedroom layout. Kitchen was large enough for a few people to work together and was well equipped. The three bathrooms were excellent, great layout with the separate toilet and extra basin and the provision of toiletries was appreciated. The downstairs living room was great for the children and the hot and cold outdoor shower was wonderful for rinsing sand off. House was very clean and well maintained but some minor maintenance outside on the broken deck chairs and the beach access steps is needed. We ended up using the beach access at the end of the street because of missing boards and uprights poking up through the sand. It was extremely hot and windy when we were there and the house has no air conditioning or ceiling fans, only one small pedestal fan which made one of the nights very uncomfortable. A second fridge downstairs to cater for large groups would also be good. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend it.

A magic place on the beach
Absolutely beautiful property right on culburra beach. The house is gorgeous and modern. Could do with some fans for the hot nights (there are no ceiling fans), that would be our only suggestion.

Culburra beach
Lovely house with beautiful outlook over the ocean and vegetation. Unfortunately the weather was terrible but there was enough wet weather activity within the house so we still had a great time. WiFi required a phone call to get connected as it was very complicated with another locker cupboard. The bbq was left very dirty from previous use and the coffee machine was minus a critical piece. Thankfully there were many other coffee options available. Otherwise comfortable and plush.

Great house for 3 families with kids!
The place was amazing and we had a great time. A few annoying (minor) things you may or may not know about: we spent a bunch of time trying to get the downstairs tv working for the kids to chill out with, and no one could connect to the SONOS speaker system.
Fantastic time had by all- and the dogs loved it too! Will be back.

Winter Getaway
Perfect house for our family with well separated bedrooms for the 3 families and a centred lounge / dining for together-time. Well appointed inside and out, we were able to make good use of the various outside locations of the house at different times of the day. We want to return to see if the house functions in warmer weather as well as it did in cool/cold conditions.
Easy access to the beach and walking distance to shops allowed us to vary our means of getting about Culburra.
Overall, we had a relaxing weekend that will be remembered by all, including the children who loved the trampoline.
