About this property

Private Luxury Family Retreat

Watermark is a recently renovated property, set up for two families or a larger family group.

Spread over two levels, the house has plenty of space to relax. There are five bedrooms upstairs - two doubles, a twin and two small single rooms. The downstairs 4-person bunk room doubles as a kids retreat, with a TV and PlayStation.

There are seating areas on both the front and rear deck, and a reading room tucked between the living room and rear bedrooms.

The kitchen is equipped with plenty of glassware, plates and cutlery. There's also a Nespresso machine, juicers, a SodaStream and Le Creuset pots. Downstairs, a self-contained laundry room caters for every guests' cleaning needs.

There is a wood fire stove and a reverse cycle air conditioning in the main living room; and an additional reverse cycle air conditioning unit in the rear wing to cool/ heat the back bedrooms. A Dyson air conditioning unit is in the main bedroom. Fans are also available if required.

The garden has a fire pit, barbecue and large seating area, giving guests a great space to congregate in the evening. A long dining table on the rear deck overlooks the gardens and is ideal for summer lunches and dinners, whilst indoors there's an equally spacious table for meals.

At the very back of the garden toward to top of a rocky climb, a cubby house provides an inviting escape for more adventurous kids (and parents).

There's also an outdoor h/c shower by the front porch to wash away the beach at the end of a long day in the sand.

The house comes with a good number of books and magazines, as well as DVDs, jigsaws and board games. Foxtel, Netflix and wi-fi are also included, as well as a Bose music system that connects to your phone or device.

We provide pillows, donnas and additional blankets. Fresh linen and towels are also provided as a mandatory cost.

Watermark is a 4 minute walk to the Pearl Beach Cafe and 'Pearls' restaurant. It is also a short walk to the entrance of the Patonga fire trail, that leads directly to the recently established Patonga Boat House.

Unfortunately we do not accept pets at the property (unless by prior approval by the owner).

Bookings are available for a minimum of 3 nights.

Amazing house, great location

We had a very enjoyable time staying at this amazing property. It is well equipped, spacious (suitable for an extended family catch up), and located in a convenient location. The check in process was easy and the owner very accommodating and communicative. Thank you Ian!

Great place for a family holiday

This property was perfect for our family beach holiday! The house is so well equipped - from the kitchen to the comfy linens and outdoor shower. It's an easy walk to and from the beach, and there are games and puzzles for rainy days and evenings. The host was communicative and very pleasant to work with; everything was as we hoped and then some. We're looking forward to another stay in the future.

Wonderland location and home !

The house is amazing and in such great location, minutes from the beach in a beautiful street. The house had everything required and so much more to make our stay as a family so wonderful. Thank you and we will definitely be back. Our feedback to make it an even better experience the screen doors & windows need to be fixed could not be opened as bugs got in or to let breeze in as bedrooms have no air con. Leaking shower outside wasting water.

Hidden Gem

Pearl Beach is a hidden gem and so close to Sydney. This property was excellent. It is well appointed and it feels like the owner has let you into his own home. There is a generosity to the fitout and to the contents of the house that was a pleasant surprise. My communication with the owner had me feeling that he genuinely wanted us to have a great time at his house. I am pleased to say we did. The house is large and very comforatble with many different zones to relax in. The street is leafy and quiet and you are a short stroll away from the beach and the centre of Pearl Beach. Highly recommended and I would definitely stay again.

Perfect beach house set up

Our extended family enjoyed the many outdoor entertaining areas at this comfortable house, set in a quiet spot at Pearl Beach yet close to the beach and bush walks.
