Parking

The driveway and carport are available, however the driveway is very steep. Some 2WD vehicles can struggle for grip when driving out, so it is best suited to AWD or 4WD vehicles. Parking nose-in and reversing out works best. Street parking is easy, plentiful and often the simplest option.

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 small to mid-sized, house-trained dogs 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 bushland backdrop, this stylish four bedroom home is designed for families, couples and groups looking for a relaxing coastal escape.

The Space

Spread across two light-filled levels, DelMonte Haven gives everyone room to come together and space to unwind. Upstairs, the open plan living area flows from the modern kitchen through the dining and lounge spaces to a sunny viewing deck, perfect for a morning coffee while listening to the birds.

Downstairs offers a private retreat with its own living area and generous entertaining deck overlooking the bushland, making it ideal for BBQs, long lunches or relaxed evenings outdoors.

A small number of cupboards, including one in the fourth bedroom, are kept locked for owner storage.

A Kitchen You'll Actually Want to Cook In

The kitchen is fully equipped with an induction cooktop, quality oven, air fryer, quality cookware, sharp knives and everything you need to prepare real home-cooked meals. Downstairs, the Weber BBQ on the spacious deck makes outdoor dining easy for the whole group.

Rest and Restore

The spa-inspired bathroom with its freestanding bath creates the perfect place to relax after a day at the beach. Comfortable beds, quality linens and thoughtful touches throughout help make your stay feel easy and comfortable.

The home features beautiful timber floorboards throughout, which means sound can travel between levels. If you are a light sleeper or have little ones napping downstairs, it's worth keeping this in mind when others are moving around upstairs.

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.
