Important Things to Know

Check in: After 3:00 PM | Checkout: Before 11:00 AM | Maximum guests: 9

The driveway and carport are available, though the driveway is quite steep - 2WD vehicles can struggle to grip on the way out, so it's best suited to AWD or 4WD. Nose-in and reverse out works best. Street parking is easy and plentiful, and often the simplest option for most guests.

Accessibility DelMonte Haven is a two storey home with stairs between levels (no lift). Bedrooms are split across both levels and the home is not wheelchair accessible.

A Peaceful Stay This is a quiet coastal sanctuary. Parties and large gatherings are not permitted. Quiet hours begin at 10:00 PM. Children are very welcome and pets may be considered with prior approval.

Description

Wake to kookaburras. Walk to the beach. Relax and enjoy.

DelMonte Haven is a spacious, beautifully finished coastal retreat in Copacabana on the Central Coast, where leafy bushland meets the sand and the pace of life genuinely slows down. Set on a generous block with a private nature backdrop, this stylish 4 bedroom home is designed for families, couples, and groups who want more than just a place to sleep. You want a place that makes you exhale the moment you walk in.

The Space

Spread across two light filled levels with a northerly aspect that pours warmth into every room, DelMonte Haven gives everyone space to be together and space to retreat. Upstairs, open plan living flows from a modern kitchen through a bright dining and lounge area and out to a viewing deck, perfect for morning coffee while listening to the birds. Downstairs, a private retreat with its own living area and generous entertaining deck opens onto the bushland, ideal for BBQs, long lunches, or relaxed evenings outdoors.

A small number of cupboards, including 4th bedroom, are kept locked for storage.

A Kitchen You'll Actually Want to Cook In

The kitchen is a genuine highlight. Induction stovetop, a fantastic oven, air fryer, quality cookware, sharp knives, and everything you need for proper home cooked meals. Head downstairs to the Weber BBQ on the generous deck and you can comfortably feed the whole group alfresco.

Rest and Restore

The spa inspired bathroom with freestanding tub turns an ordinary evening into something restorative. Quality linens, comfortable beds, and thoughtful touches throughout make this feel like a home that someone genuinely cares about, because they do.

One thing worth knowing: the home has beautiful timber floorboards throughout, which carry sound between levels. It's a peaceful home, but if you're a light sleeper or have little ones napping in the downstairs retreat, it's worth keeping in mind when others are moving around upstairs.

Four Bedrooms, Two Levels

Sleeps up to 9 guests (including kids) comfortably across four bedrooms

Dual living areas give flexibility for families or groups

Private downstairs retreat away from the main living spaces

Two full bathrooms including spa inspired freestanding tub

Climate control for year round comfort

The Outdoor Connection

Generous downstairs deck for BBQs, evening drinks, or long family lunches

Upstairs viewing deck, perfect for morning coffee and listening to the birds

Bushland backdrop with birdsong and coastal breezes

Just 550m to Copacabana Beach, an easy 6-8 minute stroll with a rock pool for ocean swims and safe paddling for little ones

Stay Connected (If You Need To)

Dedicated work desks on both levels

Reliable FTTN Wi-Fi (around 46 to 50 Mbps), suitable for video calls

Bring your own monitor and peripherals and set up comfortably

The Location

Copacabana is the Central Coast's best kept secret: a quiet, uncommercialised coastal village with a stunning beach that stays uncrowded even in peak season. Good coffee, local restaurants, coastal walking trails, and a rock pool are all within easy reach on foot.

Terrigal and Avoca Beach are a short drive away when you want cafes, restaurants, and a bit more buzz, and MacMasters Beach is within walking distance for a different stretch of coastline. Sydney is about 90 minutes by car when you need the city, but you probably won't.

About the host

Host profile image
I’m based in Sydney and have always been drawn to the ocean and being close to nature. I love early beach walks, good food, and time spent outdoors, it’s where I feel most myself.

DelMonte Haven came from wanting to create a space that reflects that. Living amongst the trees, with birds around you, there’s something about it that lets me breathe and fully de-stress. It’s not just a place to stay, it’s somewhere you can slow down, reconnect, and enjoy a different rhythm for a few days.

I genuinely enjoy hosting. There’s something special about knowing people come here to rest, celebrate, or spend time together, and I love being able to offer a space that supports that.

Why they chose this property

Copacabana has a really special feel to it. There’s a strong sense of locals, a creative energy, and it feels alive without being hectic. It’s more laid-back than places like Avoca or Terrigal, which is exactly why I was drawn to it.

You still have access to everything, great beaches, cafes, and coastal spots, but when you come back, it feels peaceful and easy. That balance is what makes it so unique.

What makes this property unique

DelMonte Haven has a way of making you feel like you’ve stepped out of the busyness and into something softer. Set amongst the trees, with birds around you, it feels calm and gently removed, even though there are neighbours nearby. The way the home is positioned means you rarely see or hear them, so there’s still a real sense of privacy.

Inside, the space invites you to settle in. Two separate living areas across levels give you the option to come together or take time out, which works beautifully for families or groups. It comfortably sleeps up to nine without feeling crowded.

Being pet-friendly also means your dog can be part of the experience, which makes it feel more like a true getaway, not just a place to stay.

What people tend to notice most is how easy it is to relax here. You can spend the day out exploring Avoca or Terrigal, then come back, sit amongst the trees, and feel everything slow down again.
