The Cabbage Palm Kiama. 5 min walk to everwhere. Location Location Location!

Set in the heart of Kiama a short stroll to Terralong St, with glimpses of the Kiama Harbour and the Pacific Ocean beyond. The Cabbage Palm offers a quiet place to relax and unwind, in the perfect location, within walking distance to the beaches and the cafes and restaurants Kiama is famous for. Freshly renovated to the highest standards in November 2024, the Cabbage Palm has been meticulously designed by a couple with a passion for interiors and creating beautiful spaces

Freshly renovated to the highest standards in November 2024, the Cabbage Palm has been meticulously designed by a couple with a passion for interiors and creating beautiful spaces.

The 1970’s unit block is indicative of a time that once was, where it stood as one of only a few blocks in the area. The re-imagining of the space in 2024, takes ques from the era with an updated modern aesthetic. Every piece curated to add a touch of luxury to this beautiful home away from home.

Mornings can be spent on the balcony overlooking the Cabbage Palms, Cedars, Gums and the passing parade. Catch the perfect sunrise, and you might be lucky enough to spot a pod of whales on their migration north or south.

Enjoy evenings snuggled on the linen MCM House sofas, dining at the intimate stone table, or watching a film on the 55 inch TV. Treat yourself to a glass of wine on the balcony with a charcuterie board and watch the world go by.

Enjoy the nostalgia of a 1970's beach side apartment, updated for 2024 and beyond.

Ideal stay

The apartment was luxurious and a very comfortable stay for 5 nights, it is very close to the main street of Kiama. It exceeded our expectations (which were already very high based off other reviews). We will keep this property in mind for if we make another trip to Kiama. Thank you!

Wonderful Weekend Away

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at The Cabbage Palm. We appreciated the flexibility that was generously offered or granted for both checking in and checking out, at no extra cost, and the hosts' attention to detail and evident passion for interior design. Congratulations on creating a beautiful space.

About the host

Hosted by James crawley

Host profile image
I am based on the edge of Sydney in a small country town. I am obsessed with real estate, design, renovations, interiors and gardens.

Why they chose this property

I chose Kiama as I spent my childhood holidays down there and always dreamt of owning a holiday property in the area. It's a short one hour trip from my home.

What makes this property unique

This is not a regular 1970's apartment. The building is an older style, so it's often a big surprise when our guests enter The Cabbage Palm. It truly is beautiful. It's our interpretation of coastal, with a nod to the era of the building. Lots of little luxury touches to enhance your stay.

We also supply 2 x E-bikes for the exclusive enjoyment of guests. It's the best way to get around town. You really don't need a car.
