About this property
“Waterside Paradise Retreat”
✨ Your Private Paradise on the Water ✨
Tucked away at the edge of Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park, this retreat is a sanctuary of peace and natural beauty. Here, the chorus of birds replaces city noise, and your backyard becomes a stage for Australia’s unique wildlife — wallabies grazing at dusk, bush turkeys and lyrebirds rustling through the trees, king parrots flashing bright colors overhead, and even the occasional lace monitor basking in the sun.
Spend your days however the mood takes you: stretch out on umbrella-shaded daybeds at the water’s edge, cast a line from the private jetty and cook your catch straight on the BBQ, or dive into the cool, refreshing water when the day grows warm.
🌿 The Space
The backyard is your playground, fully equipped with:
• A BBQ and outdoor lounge under a shade umbrella
• Umbrella-covered daybeds right on the water
• A two-person kayak with life jackets, perfect for paddling across the bay
When adventure calls, paddle just 10 minutes or enjoy a leisurely 20-minute walk to discover local cafés and restaurants along the waterfront.
This is more than a place to stay — it’s a lifestyle, a pocket of paradise where the water, the bush, and the wildlife come together in harmony.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Joe Simundza
I was born in Croatia, a country surrounded by the sea, so I’ve always felt most at home near the water. That love brought me to Church Point, where the bay and the bush meet in perfect harmony. I enjoy boats, cars, and anything to do with the outdoors, and hosting allows me to share this peaceful, nature-filled lifestyle with others who appreciate it too.
Why they chose this property
I chose Church Point because it gives me the best of both worlds—peace by the water and freedom on the road. Every day here feels like living where adventure and tranquillity meet.
What makes this property unique
What makes my property stand out is its rare balance of tranquillity and connection. Set on the edge of Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park, it offers direct water views, native wildlife at your doorstep, and a true sense of seclusion—yet it’s only a short drive from the city. It’s more than a place to stay; it’s an escape where nature, comfort, and privacy come together in a way that’s hard to find anywhere else.
