About this house rental
Arriba is a single story beachfront home located just 1 hour drive south of Sydney in Thirroul - the friendly village.
Ideally located right at Thirroul beach, Arriba guests walk just 50 level metres over lawn (no roads to cross) to step onto the fine golden sand of this beautiful surf beach.
Completely renovated in 2011 and fastidiously maintained, Arriba offers 1st class accommodation for up to 10 guests in 4 bedrooms. Nestled in the quietest cul-de-sac with no passing traffic (only 1 other house in the street) guests relax on the massive timber decks, play footy and cricket in the kid-friendly back yard, take breakfast (and lunch and dinner) alfresco if they wish while marvelling at the sparkling ocean and dramatic escarpment views.
Its easy level walking to the fabulous new Thirroul Playground next to the sea water Olympic pool (yep – there’s also a toddler pool) and nearby coffee shops, restaurants and boutiques.
Or stoll in the opposite direction to spectacular award winning Austinmer Beach with its inviting rock swimming pools and more coffee shops, restaurants and boutiques.
So, after you’ve been surfing or swimming, golfing or shopping, cycling or hiking or you’ve read a book, watched a movie, had a siesta, played some cards, taken dinner and a glass or two of your favourite beverage, Arriba’s super-comfy beds are there for you - the perfect end to the perfect day.
Pets permitted upon application only.

We had a wonderful stay at Arriba with the extended family. The property was amazing with ample living and dining space for a large group. There were games, toys and books for the little ones which was a nice touch. The location was fantastic right opposite the beach. Kitchen was well equipped with enough crockery and cutlery for everyone. Highly recommend.

Had a two night stay at Arriba, would definitely recommend! Was walking distance to town where we saw a show at Anita’s theatre and so many options to eat nearby. Was perfect for our 4 couples, spacious, cosy and amazing location!

We recently had a number of lawn bowls sides competing in the State Championships in and around Wollongong.
We chose Arriba Beachfront Cottage as our home base for the week - and were very glad that we did.
During the week, we had between 2 and six adults staying at the property at any one time.
The amenities were excellent!
This was a great place to come home to after a full day of competition on the greens.
The living and sleeping areas were fantastic. We certainly enjoyed our downtime at Arriba!
While we stayed at Arriba during the winter, I can only imagine how enjoyable it would be during summer months - especially being right on the beach in a very quiet street.
Tracey managed the property very well - always communicating with us. Thank you for your hospitality and attention to detail.
Arriba is Highly Recommended!

We had a wonderful 4 days at Arriba recently. The location is fantastic - our children enjoyed exploring the rock pools not far from the front of the property and the short stroll along the beach to Thirroul beach playground.
Tracey was very responsive and the house itself was clean and spacious with impressive ocean views across the front living areas. We hope to be back in summer.

This property has all the charm you’d expect from a beach house. Fantastic nautical details and incredible views of the ocean. We loved sleeping to the sound of waves crashing on the shore and enjoyed morning cups of tea and coffee on the front deck. Ample dining and bedding for two families. Our third stay at this property - and we will return again!

We spent a wonderful week at Arriba Beachfront Cottage.
The position is amazing, directly opposite the beach. It is an easy walk to Austinmer rock pools via the beach as well.
The house is very well equipped. The furnishings are very comfortable - we couldn’t have asked for more.
Tracey the property manager is great to deal with. We would love to spend more time there.

Awesome and convenient location for a family getaway with children under 4
The beach right at you door step not having to cart everything to the beach each time was a big plus for a family with kids
Will definitely be staying again

I cannot say enough about this house. It was the perfect place for our family group of 10 (6 adults and 4 children). It was so comfortable we felt like we were staying at our own home and the bonus was that it was right across from the beach (practically on the beach)! Big back yard, plenty of room for the kids to play, serviceable kitchen, entertainment areas, comfy beds. Walking distance to all the shops. Tracey, property manager couldn't have been more helpful. I could rave on for ages. It ticked all our boxes and other family who visited us are keen to book it too. We might even come back for a proper holiday ourselves (this was just a short trip for a wedding). Loved it!

A group of 10 of us workmates booked this place to get some time away from the busy city life, our kids and significant others.. After a fishing charter trip in Wollongong we check-in to this property and to be honest, the photo's do not do it justice. Such a great property with the best location. It's clean, the deco was well done, it was perfect. Cannot fault this place and love to be able to come back again hopefully next year. You will not be disappointed!

We were 5 friends from work from many years back. We go away every year. This house was great. Clean, nice bathrooms. We were left a bottle of wine and choc which was a nice touch. We would all come back again. Beach was just across the road and we went for an early morning swim. Freezing, but then it is August.

Right on the beach
Arriba is a great holiday house that’s worked well for our 3 generation family holiday. Well set out bedrooms including one with a double and 2 singles, perfect for our daughter, her husband and 2 little girls. Well equipped kitchen, good living area, wifi , 2 smart tvs . Bathroom , ensuite and another toilet in the ( external) well equipped laundry. Great decks, bbq, big backyard for the kids. Right opposite Thirroul beach in a No through road street. Close to cafes, Thirroul Beach pavilion; easy short walk to IGA, Coles etc.
Tracey the property manager was excellent to deal with.

Family Gathering
We enjoyed four days at Arriba and found the property to be perfect for our family.
The property is well equipped for all your needs and if there were any issues Tracey was there to help.
With the beach just across the road and lovely local cafes and restaurants it was a very enjoyable stay.

Would rent again
Loved the place. The amenities were amazing because we went with my grandmother and she loved how friendly the house was. The only minor downside was that she had a small trip with the rug on the floor in the bedroom. But other than that we loved it and would rent the place again

family holiday
Ideal location for a short holiday. Beach access and close to shops and restaurants. We chose a rainy period but the house was still pleasant with a good outlook to the beach via the front sliding doors. Good size rooms. All you need. Tracey was responsive to any request and helped to make our stay very enjoyable.

Highly recommend, and will definitely be back!

Perfect
Arriba accommodated our extended family wonderfully, with plenty of space and comfort for all considered, in a beautiful setting. Having x4 of our group over 80 years of age, the level access throughout, as well as the easy stroll to the beach and beyond made Arriba the perfect choice. We really couldn't have been happier with our stay and hope to visit again one day.

Perfect!
We had a wonderful weekend at Arriba cottage and will be looking to book again! We found the property to be very well appointed, particularly the kitchen. The location is perfect if you are looking for peace and quiet and you can leave kids to play either out the back or front. We felt the only thing missing from the house would be 2 or 3 more kitchen stools (2 wasn't quite enough for our group). However, that being said the house does have a large dining table with 10 chairs and multiple outdoor settings, so you won't be short on places to sit.
