Derek & Ange
Our location is merely 80m from the ocean, salt water pool, and 200m from the harbour, tucked away in a tranquil cul-de-sac. A brief walk leads you to the delightful boutiques, cafes, and diverse dining options that define Shellharbour Village. We are approximately a 15-20 min scenic walk to the newly constructed Marina. Situated in an area graced with an enviable setting between mountains and sea, the possibilities for exploration are boundless. The ocean and the lake beckon with opportunities for fishing, swimming, boating, surfing, stand-up paddleboarding, kayaking, snorkeling and you can even book a cruise to experience an extraordinary whale watching trip between May to November. We live upstairs on the property (with our Siberian Husky Jetson) so if you are in need of anything or even just information on the local area, we are happy to help! The biggest compliments we get from our guests is how amazingly close everything is and within walking distance. We feel its the best place in the world!
We have lived in the Shellharbour area all our lives and we will put our heart and soul your into your upcoming getaway! We bring a wealth of experience and passion for hospitality to your stay. With backgrounds in customer service and engagement, our commitment to creating memorable experiences shines through in every detail. Beyond our dedication to hosting, we are enthusiasts of fitness, health and travel. Whether it's exploring the local trails with our Siberian Husky Jetson, embarking on outdoor adventures, or discovering hidden gems in the community, we are always eager to share our insights. We believe in creating a home away from home for our guests. Our hosting style is characterized by making people feel at home and relaxed whilst maintaining respect for privacy. We strive to make every guest feel not just accommodated but truly welcomed.
Our guests biggest comment is the fact that everything is so close and within walking distance. There is so much to do and see. You can embark on a day trip to the charming townships of Kiama or Berry, explore the vibrant city of Wollongong, visit the Nan Tien Buddhist Temple, immerse yourself in the thrills of Jamberoo Recreation Park, marvel at the Illawarra Fly, or savor the offerings of the Southern Highlands and local wineries. Killalea and the Farm Beach are one of the favourite areas by locals. Maybe venture slightly inland to discover gentle strolls or invigorating hikes, cycle along scenic paths, or tee off at one of the local golf courses. Enjoy a cinematic experience or indulge in a shopping spree at Shellharbour Stocklands. It can be a very exciting, action packed holiday and as chilled out as you like. That is the beauty of our area!
