Comfortable and Quiet

Coolaroo Beach House Berry was the perfect place for our family to get together for a special birthday celebration. The property comfortably housed 12 adults and 4 children. The beautiful grounds provided plenty of opportunities for photos and room for the children to play. It’s a short drive into Berry township and very close to the beach but also very quiet & secluded.

We stayed here for a Christmas in July weekend with a group of friends. We were all very happy with the location, the number of bedrooms and bathrooms and it was very well appointed, all set in beautiful grounds in a gorgeous part of the south coast. Would highly recommend.

Hi Josephine, thank you for your feedback and please be assured we take all feedback on board. I can confirm the cleaners have done a thorough clean on both the oven and BBQ and we are sorry it wasn't up to standard for your stay but this has definitely been addressed. We are glad we could talk you through changing the gas bottles over for the hot water on the Saturday evening. It can tricky changing gas bottles over if you haven't done this before. A lot of our guests are used to being on mains gas in the city so bottled house gas is new to a lot of people. We hope to see you have again in future. Regards The Berry Getaways Team

FAMILY HOLIDAY

A lovely large country home, suitable for a family holiday. The only minor criticism is that the kitchen in the main living area was rather small for the numbers of guests (with different meal requirements).

Hi John, Thanks for choosing to stay at Coolaroo Beach House! Sorry you found the kitchen area to be small. We find that if you split up the cooking between the two kitchens and the BBQ there is plenty of space for everyone to get in and cook up a feast :)

Quiet location

We had a great time. It was a great size property for many families in a lovely location. My only negative is the back entertaining area is a concrete jungle and the games room was full of spiders and therefore we didn't utilise this space. There was lots of space to spread out and it was handy having two kitchens.

Beautiful grounds which allowed the kids to have freedom to play and explore outside. Home was a great size for 4 families. Hot water wasn’t consistent which made it challenging for shower time. Overall a great stay and would definitely book again.

Private country retreat close to the beach.

Overall excellent experience. Only drawbacks were the kitchen was crowded for such a big group but we managed fine, water pump was noisy in the bedrooms at that end of the house but everyone enjoyed the house and had a great time. There was plenty of space inside inside and out, I would recommend it to large groups.

Enjoyable stay

We loved our stay at Coolaroo House. It is a perfect house for a large family- we had 8 adults and 8children. We had a few hiccups at first but after ringing Ashley, who was very helpful, most of these were fixed up. We visited Berry, Geroa and Gerringong. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking for our large group.

Coolaroo Getaway

Loved our stay at Coolaroo. Great location, short drive to Berry and Gerringong. Unfortunately the weather wasn't in our favour with torrential rain all weekend, so we didn't get to enjoy the gorgeous grounds, however the house was well set out with ample room for everyone to move around comfortably for our extended family of 17. It was a beautiful place to simply relax and unwind. Would definitely recommend. Big thumbs up!
