About this property

Waves @ Caves- Family Getaway

Escape to your dream beach holiday at our 3-bedroom family home, just a stone's throw away from the crystal-clear waters of Caves Beach.

From the moment you arrive, you'll be mesmerized by the panoramic views from every East-facing window of the house, taking in the stunning Pacific Ocean and Lake Macquarie in all their glory.

Our home is the perfect family retreat, with a spacious and fully-equipped kitchen where you can cook up a storm while watching the waves roll in. Relax on the back bal

Upstairs, the three beautifully appointed bedrooms sleep up to 8 guests, with the main bedroom boasting a queen bed, an ensuite with a shower and toilet, and a private balcony with a front-facing view. The second bedroom also features a queen bed, while the third bedroom has two singles. All rooms offer split queen beds and can be configured to suit your needs.

Downstairs, the open-plan space doubles as a fourth bedroom or teenager retreat, with two double sofa beds and a second TV. The third bathroom is located down here, as well as a fully equipped laundry.

With free WiFi and a ping pong table in the garage, the whole family will have plenty of entertainment options.

The large garage and driveway provide ample space for multiple cars or a boat, with local boat ramps just a few minutes away. The secure backyard is perfect for the kids to run around and play, and your furry family member is welcome to join you on your holiday (outdoor only).

Located in the charming coastal town of Caves Beach, our property is only a short walk or drive to local shops, cafes, and restaurants. Explore the beautiful patrolled beach just 300m down the road, where you can discover the caves during low tide or attend an event at the Caves Beach Surf Club. If the lake is more your style, Swansea and Pelican are both less than five minutes away.

Book your dream holiday today and start making memories that will last a lifetime.

The guest has entire access to the house and garage.

If you're looking to immerse yourself in nature, the nearby Watagans National Park is a must-visit. This park offers lush rainforests, scenic hiking trails, birdwatching opportunities, and idyllic picnic spots. It's the perfect escape for nature enthusiasts.

And let's not forget about the renowned Hunter Valley wine region, just a short drive from Caves Beach. Wine lovers can enjoy wine tasting tours, visit vineyards, and savor gourmet food experiences. It's the ultimate destination for a day trip filled with indulgence and relaxation.

Great view and location.
The view and location of this property is definitely its draw card. Semi-updated property with refreshed living areas but very dated (“original”) bathrooms. The main bedroom balcony has been overtaken by a climbing plant that needs a serious pruning! Was great to have a Nespresso coffee machine in the kitchen but the coffee pods left with it weren’t actually compatible. Had to contact the property managers a few times as check in details weren’t received via SMS, but they were responsive and helpful when contacted.

Great view and within walking distance to beaches and restaurants
The view from the top balcony is beautiful. The yard is huge, so great for kids or dogs. Needs a little tidy up of the vines at the front of the house, as couldn’t find the key box to start with.
