Fabulous location a few minutes walk from the beach, Hope’s Haven was big enough for 6 adults, 2 teenagers and 2 groodles. The yard was full well fenced with great undercover outdoor area to catch a cool breeze and enjoy a bbq.The house was very clean and comfortable, I would highly recommend it.

Just what we needed

This place was just what we needed for 3 families. Had rooms/space and activities to handle the different kids ages of each family. Was a short walk to the beach or the playground.

Everything you can need

Perfect location for the sunny days, you can walk to the beaches and to the lake, and there's a bbq, and it provides plenty of leisure options for the days when you prefer to stay indoors (tennis table, darts, games area with its own fridge). Strongly recommended!

Enjoyable Home

Had a positive experience staying at this house. It had nice facilities, was in a great spot, and was exactly what it said on the listing. Slight drawback was one of the kitchen drawers had some ants and some of the utensils were dirty and we had to buy washing up liquid, but other than that was a great time.

This house is an excellent choice for large families during the holidays. It is very spacious, clean, and well-equipped, including almost new BBQ stoves. The big backyard offers plenty of shelter, making it perfect for gatherings.The host’s communication was fantastic, and they provided a lot of useful tips.A few minor items to note: towels and a kitchen garbage bin were not provided, which are typically standard amenities. Aside from that, our stay was wonderful, and I would highly recommend this property!

Family Memories

We were a family of three generations and these times when we can all get together are very rare and special so you want to be somewhere that caters to all age groups and Hope Haven absolutely delivered. We loved the house layout that provided space for both kids and adults to enjoy their freedom ! Great location within walking distance to beach and also safe swimming areas at the lake entrance for the little ones! Was all that was promised!

Great weekend away with family

Hope's Haven had all the facilities needed to make our weekend away comfortable, memorable and fun. The outdoor playroom entertained the kids (and also the big kids!) for hours. The backyard was well kept and had a great outdoor seating area to enjoy BBQ meals. Only 1min drive to the beach and you hear the waves from the beach at night and you can also see the beach from top balcony. The family appreciated all the little touches around the house to make us feel at home. It was such a clean, lovely and inviting place. Thank you, Freda.

Loved the house, much better than the pictures and lovely host.

We loved the house, it's much better than the pictures. Also the host Freda is wonderful, always reachable, answered all my questions however trivial. You don't need an itinerary, Freda provides a lot of information on local shopping, sightseeing etc which was very helpful. The property is a few hundred metres away from the beach, so if there's nothing to do, there's the beach😊, and the games room of course👍. Would definitely recommend this place. And yes, loved the sweet surprise Freda had for the kids🍫😊😅

Nice area

This property need abit of up grade in furniture and bed. Some bunk bed make noise and property need pest control lots of spiders inside the house also upstairs ceiling fan are not spinning good enough to get some cooling. Also should advertise 4bedroom not 5. As the game room is quite abit humid and hot to sleep. Or use as a retreat. It is best stay as game roo. And a 4br house. It just my opinion. Thank you

Please accept our apologies for the noisy bunkbed, we will certainly get that looked at, we've just recently had the pest control guy in, I think with all the rain some of them might be wandering inside. We'll definitely have another chat with him too. In our property description it says the 5th bedroom is the games room with its own shower and toilet we also have a photo of the games room up on the listing. Thank you for taking the time to review Hope's Haven and giving it a 4/5 star review. We always take feedback and suggestions on board and strive to give our guests the best possible experience we can.

Great for groups!

The place did not disappoint at all. Enough beds for a big group and there’s plenty of space to chill both inside and out. We had great chill times eating outside and playing board games or going hard on the karaoke inside. The weather was a bit windy but we still managed to have a nice stroll on the beach that’s within walking distance. Would highly recommend, actually found it a lot better than the pictures indicated!

Great house and location!

This house is great for large groups or families and is only a short walk from the beach and cafes. The property was very clean and well maintained. Communication with the owners was excellent. I would definitely rent this property again. I would say though, I think there should be wifi on the property as phone data reception is quite poor, so streaming music can be a little bit difficult. Other than that the place was brilliant, and I would highly recommend.

Very thoughtful host!

The property was brilliantly furnished with everything we needed for a fun, relaxing getaway - TV, well-stocked games room and kitchen, multiple bathrooms, and plenty of space for different groups to hang out. Freda is a lovely host and was very informative when communicating before and during our stay. The only thing that could have improved the place (although it's made clear in the listing) is wifi and aircon, but we managed just fine without it.

Spending time on the picturesque South Coast is a dream come true for us. My husband and I love escaping here with our fur baby, who adores long beach walks just as much as we do! Culburra—our beloved ‘Burradise’—is where we relax, reconnect with family and friends, and soak up the beauty of this special place. We’re thrilled to share this slice of paradise with fellow holidaymakers and hope you love it as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

We visited Culburra Beach and instantly fell in love with this charming coastal town. With its golden beaches, stunning views, and peaceful atmosphere, it truly is a haven away from the hustle and bustle of city life. This is our happy place, and we can’t wait to share it with you!

What makes this property unique

Hope’s Haven sits on a generous block of land, offering a spacious backyard perfect for family fun and outdoor entertainment. Relax on the balcony as you listen to the soothing sounds of birdlife, catch glimpses of the ocean, and hear the waves crashing on the shore—it’s an instant escape to tranquility. With big, wide windows letting in the fresh sea breeze, you’ll feel completely at peace in this coastal haven. Once you arrive, you may never want to leave!
