About this house rental
In the prime location with exquisite sea views through picture-perfect windows and just a 30-second stroll to Carrickalinga's celebrated North Bay voted by the Lonely Planet as South Australia's best beach.
You will fall in love all over again with the pristine seaside at this King of North Bay hidden beach treasure!
Enjoy the tranquil surroundings with the gentle sound of the surf at your front door and the native animals wondering the rolling hills just out your backdoor. You will most likely see a mob of kangaroos in the morning and evening, numerous native birds, foxes, hares, and rabbits.
Keep a keen eye out for the family of dolphins that cruise up and down the bay in the morning and late afternoon and if you are really lucky and at the right time of the season you may spot a whale in the bay.
This large home has 4 bedrooms that can sleep 12 people, 3 bathrooms, a brand new (December 2021)open plan lounge/kitchen/dining room with an open fireplace, a 2nd lounge room for the children to relax in, and a zoned reverse ducted ac throughout.
The house sits in a commanding position on the northern headland of Carrickalinga with absolute ocean and hills views from all rooms in the house.
The upstairs 360 views will take your breath away featuring panoramas of the Gulf from Carrickalinga to Rapid Bay! The master bedroom with queen-size bed, large ensuite with ocean views even from the shower, small kitchenette, flat-screen tv, and built-in robes with direct access to a front and rear balcony is exquisite!
This striking stretch of coastline features rounded hills of the Fleurieu Peninsula plunging down to the sea, ever-changing surf and a township squeezed between the hillside and the pristine dunes. The beach is strikingly clean with clear water and fine white sand. It is a very popular beach for families especially loved by children who explore the ever-changing rock pool formations.
There is access to beach walks -short or long or over rugged headlands down to secret beaches past natural caves. Take a stroll along this magnificent beach, past the sand dunes for a coffee at the Normanville beach cafe or just sit back, relax and enjoy the ambiance.
Local activities including golf are only a 5-minute drive from Normanville at the Links Lady Bay Golf Course featuring fine dining for lunch or dinner at the restaurant and clubhouse. There are also several local wineries boasting stunning wines to taste. Fishing and diving are very popular in this area or you can enjoy a horse ride along the beautiful Normanville Beach.
Research shows the beach gives you an incredible feeling of peace and calmness through the blue space where the sea meets the sky. Reduce your stress by swimming, just dipping your toes in the water, or walking along a beautiful white sand beach.
The Carrickalinga experience will recharge your batteries, making you more creative; declutter the mind allowing you to refresh and reenergise. The waves and the smell of the sea air can clear the mind and allow deep reflection away from everyday distractions. The blue space is good for the soul and can change your perspective on life.
For family or friends, a Carrickalinga holiday with uninterrupted sea and hills views in this airy blue and white beach house is just what you need. Either hot summer days or with wild wintery seas by the open fire Carrickalinga is a holiday for all seasons.

Perfect location
We had a great stay at carrickalinga.
The house is spacious and well appointed. Only fault is the gas bottle was empty when we went to light the bbq for dinner Saturday night. Luckily 1 visiting friend hadn’t had a drink so he could drive to the swap’n’go. Perhaps gas bottles needs to be checked to avoid this inconvenience for guests.
But the location cannot be beat. We spent many hours sitting outside enjoying the view.

Family Birthday Celebration
An excellent location to enjoy our family holiday to celebrate my 70th birthday. Whilst the location was excellent, the kitchen was slightly outdated. I was surprised that line was an additional cost. We would have been happy to hire linen, but found it unusual that if we did, then we were to still make up our own beds. In saying this, we had a great weekend and would return to the property.

Breathtaking!
What a great place to stay. King of North Bay is in the most spectacular spot overlooking the ocean and the rolling hills of the Fleurieu Peninsula towards Second Valley and Rapid Bay.
The house was very comfortable and a bonus to have ducted air conditioning throughout. Kitchen lacks a dishwasher and bench space to prepare meals especially if you have a full house of guests. Apart from that everything was perfect and cannot wait to comeback and stay again.
Thanks King of North Bay for a fantastic stay.

So impressed we came back again.
After holidaying here last year we had no hesitation in re-booking this year. Still fantastic value for money accommodation with fabulous sea views. Excellent for larger families and a great place to simply chill out.

Wow - VIEWS, VIEWS, VIEWS!
This is truly a great beach shack right on the water front.

Stunning Ocean Views!!
I can see that this home would be absolutely perfect for summer holidays however, our winter holiday escape was just as perfect! With ocean views from every window, ducted r/c airconditioning throughout and cosy lounges my family could not have asked for a better location to relax for a week!
The layout of the home was perfect for my husband and I and our 4 children, offering plenty of options for everyone to have their own space whilst still feeling connected. The home is nicely furnished and well equipped (although my children would argue it would benefit from the inclusion of a dishwasher!)
The stunning views from every window of this home cannot be underestimated! We enjoyed watching whales and dolphins out the front, while kangaroos and rabbits kept us entertained out the back of the house!
It is definitely a home we would love to return to at any time of the year!
4.0 / 5.0
Perfect beach house
A luxury feeling beach home right on the beach: perfect!
