About this property

SEA-RENE ON THE BEACH

If you truly wish to have a holiday of your dreams 'Sea-Rene' offers you the best of best.

Minimum stay 2 nights from Friday to Sunday.
Minimum stay 3 nights from Monday to Thursday.

This beautifully restored beach house 'shack' is magnificently located, absolute beachfront, stunning location on the foreshores of Jervis Bay a National Marine Park.

The house has been tastefully renovated, but still retaining its original beach house feel. Finished internally with Porters milk white and lime washed floorboards. It oozes the beach shack feel of yesteryear.

Commanding possibly the best views of any property on the beach front.

Whilst sitting in the two down filled sofas and being mesmerized by mother nature, our local sea eagle will take your breath away, as it passes through the vista, on its daily hunting journey, or the pods of dolphins swimming past on their daily ritual and you have not moved from the comfort of the sofa.

You can watch the kids on the beach from the open plan living room whilst you laze away reading of having a wonderful long lunch with the family or friends. Sitting on the front lawn you can watch the sunset on the Adirondack chairs, but most of all, kick off your shoes and feel the sand between your toes throughout your stay.

Sea-Rene offers you a courtyard with seating area with a fully equipped 4 Burner BBQ so your slow cooked lamb with feta can be baked to perfection whilst enjoying a glass of chilled wine from one of the many local vineyards in the area. Extensive lawns at the front and rear of the property allow safe areas for children to play.

The house is open plan living, dining and kitchen, the master bedroom with expansive water views and the second bedroom has a queen sized bed and an additional single bed. The house caters for a small family of two adults and two children or two adult couples or the perfect retreat for a couple wanting a romantic stay you will never forget.

And in winter, after a beautiful long stroll along the deserted beach of one of the whitest sands in the world, you can listen to your Ipod or unwind and watch your favourite DVD whilst been warmed by the gas heater.

My wife and I spent a week at this property for our 40th wedding anniversary. The location was great and the walks from our door step along the beach and connecting footpaths were only limited by our old legs. Unfortunately the property was disappointing and whereas the garden was well maintained the house was 'tired' and retained too much of the beach house shack and not enough of the tastefully renovated. With attention and maintenance the property would more closely resemble the hosts dazzling description.

Wonderful stay in well appointed, very clean beach-side cottage. Our family of four loved it, constantly back and forth between the huge front yard and the beach! It’s so well situated with stunning views literally right on the beach front. The outdoor shower with hot water was an extra bonus. Comfy furniture and all you need for cooking. John was a lovely host.

Quiet getaway

Great location right on the bay. We watched the dolphins swim right past us while we sat on the outdoor chairs. The house had that good feel beach house charm. Very clean and had every cooking utensil supplied if you wanted to cook inside or on the bbq. Thanks John, great host.

Beach Breather

A lovely spot to watch the waves and dolphins over the Anzac weekend. Overcast and rainy weather aside - the access to the beach, listening to the waves, and relaxing on the lawn provided for a very lovely weekend with the kids.

Beauz Holiday Bonanza

Sea-Rene is the perfect beachside destination, Located right on the beach, it's your own slice of paradise! Powdery white sand, with gentle waves lapping at the shore. Did I mention it's Dog Friendly!? Everything you need is at your fingertips. There is a small shopping village 10mins away at Callalla Bay, or fill up on all your essentials in Nowra before you arrive. Shh! Don't tell too many peoole! It's our favourite destination getaway. Great communication with the Host, Cleanliness, Location, Location, Location!! 5 Stars from us! You will love it here, just like we do!

Lovely location.

The house whilst it has a lovely location is very basic. Possibly a little too expensive as it really is only a shed. The screen doors didn’t shut properly and there was a hole in the fly screens. It needed a little bit of TLC. Lounge pillows were stained. Can’t beat the view..

Relaxation plus!

Absolute waterviews at Callalla Beach! We had the most relaxing stay here and highly recommend to anyone considering a visit here. The sound of the waves promoting the best sleep you can have. Anybody in need of rest and relaxation, this is the place for you! There is a coffee van just down the road and a pizzeria that caters for gluten free and vegan requirements. John, the owner, was very accommodating, the property is pet friendly for those who want their furry friend to come along for some fun at the beach too!

Truly Sea-rene

Highly recommend! I recently stayed at a breathtaking beachfront property, and it was the epitome of tranquility. The location was simply stunning, with the beach just steps away from my doorstep. Waking up to the gentle sound of waves and watching the sunrise from my private balcony was a magical experience that words cannot fully capture. The property was impeccably maintained and exuded a blend of elegance and comfort. The interiors were tastefully designed, with spacious rooms, comfortable furnishings, and large windows that allowed for plenty of natural light.

We had a great stay at Callala Beach with our little dog. The house had everything we needed and right on the beach. It is an absolutely beautiful location. John was a great host & communicated well! We definitely would stay again. Great beach for our little dog. A perfect place for a getaway for a few days!
