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!

Fantastic property.

We celebrated an anniversary with our extended family at Freda's house and enjoyed every minute of it. The facilities were excellent, close to the beach and lake, pets allowed and all mod cons. The games room was enjoyed by all the grandchildren while the adults relaxed in the garden or under the porch. We would recommend this venue to anyone who would like a relaxing holiday.

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.

Fantastic coast house

We had a lovely time at Hope's Haven and would highly recommend it for anyone looking to have a relaxing weekend at the coast. The house had everything we needed and more - great kitchen, big living spaces and plenty of sleeping room plus a bbq, table tennis table, games, outdoor dining area. The house is a 3 minute walk to the beach, so we could just come and go as we pleased. Overall, excellent weekend in an excellent house.

Great big house with awesome games area.

Went down with my soccer team and loved it, great big house & awesome entertaining area. We were all cheering to find the outdoor area with ping pong, darts & space for backyard cricket. Was also helpful having a few bikes we could use to get down to the beach which was 2 minutes away. Would definitely come back, thank you Freda!

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!

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.

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.

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!

We’re thrilled to share this slice of paradise with fellow holidaymakers and hope you love it as much as we do!

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!
