We had an absolutely fabulous stay at Wave break. This is our second time visiting over Christmas and it was absolutely outstanding. We could not fault anything and could not believe how above and beyond Louise goes to make everything feel perfect. I would highly recommend this place to anybody from families to friendship groups, with everything at your fingertips to make a comfortable stay. It is so close to everything but yet has ample privacy and room, thank you again and can’t wait to stay again.

Wave Lake at Shellharbour NSW

Perfect location, spectacular property. The host went over and above for us to help with an amazing getaway break. An incredible experience exceeding all expectations. The host provided us with local services and entertainment in the area and an incredible welcome pack with so many thoughtful produce and a gray bottle of red wine. Louise and Evan were simply amazing.

Relaxing with good views and close to the beach.

Very clean with required amenities available. We found it very comfortable with two separate lounge areas it is ideal for family holidays. An oval infront of the premises provides more room for active children. The sea is a short distance away, and a play ground is nearby.

Wonderful

The hosts were lovely and were very accomodating and went out of their way to help us when were a few days late due to a sick child. The house was spotless and felt very homely. Beautiful location across the road from a new little cafe, beach and park. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Wave Break. The property was perfectly appointed and our family couldn’t have been more comfortable. The hosts went to the next level to go above and beyond to help us enjoy our Christmas away from home and the attention to detail was everywhere. Thank you for a fabulous stay.

Really great!

The location and cleanliness of the property was fantastic. Our elderly parents were with us and they had a separate bed area upstairs away from the noise of the kids, which suited us well. The only shortfall was that it was advertised as 4 bedroom, where one of the rooms was a loungeroom with a fold out couch. Didn’t worry us, but it might be a thing for someone else. The hosts were amazing! Our holiday was just before Christmas and they decorated the house and had pressies under the tree as well as treats for us and the kids. It made the whole experience very special.

OUTSTANDING. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

I stayed at ‘Wave Break’ with 4 other female friends, for 3 nights. We had entered into the Shellharbour running festival 🏃‍♀️ I have nothing but positive reviews for this beautiful property & the host, Louise 🫶 Location excellent. Pleasant residential neighbourhood, park opposite & only a short walk into the main Street which catered well for food, beverages & shopping. Also within a very short walk of the start line, at the patrolled beach. ✔️ Hassle free keyless entry, with 2 car garage✔️ Home lovely, bright, spacious, well appointed (furniture & homewares) & exceptionally clean ✔️ High quality towels & linen ✔️ Plenty of kitchen space, crockery, cutlery, glasses (including champagne flutes) & other kitchen items. There were plenty of basic pantry food items, tea, coffee & coffee machine. There was also milk & butter in the fridge, on our arrival ✔️. I could have left half the grocery items brought along at home. Louise was also so generous & left some items of food & drink appropriate to running & celebrating 😉 Which were much appreciated & utilised. She had also left some locally baked dough, avocado & tomatoes. Unexpected Bonus ✔️ Louise supplied beach towels, children’s toys & a beach trolley. We did not use these, but a very nice touch & very handy for a family ✔️ I think you get the idea. Louise said that she’s new to this type of holiday letting, but you would think she has been doing it for years. Thankyou Louise & Evan 🤗
