About this property
The Copa Cabana at Copacabana
*IMPORTANT: The property next door will be doing an extension, due to be completed by May 2026. Please be mindful of associated noise when considering your booking. A discount has already been applied to the next few months to compensate for any inconvenience.
You have front row seats to find peace and visual delight as the beauty of the bush reserve meets the Pacific Ocean. Watch the sun rise and the moon illuminate the ocean. Watch the whales go by. This truly is the perfect couples retreat. The Copa Cabana is a free standing residence, situated on the front half of a block which houses a second dwelling behind and completely separate from the Cabana. All you need to bring are beach towels and what you are going to eat and drink.
Please note, you will need to bring your own firewood to the property to use the fire pit.
Small dogs (up to 10kg) are welcome but please notify us BEFORE booking so we can arrange a special offer to accommodate your fury friend. There will be an additional fee of $170.
The space
A quiet and beautiful self contained split level bungalow with pool and ocean views. Kitchen and other cooking amenities include; bar fridge, microwave, sunbeam frying pan, electric 2 burner hotplate, kettle, toaster, sandwich maker and coffee machine. Please note, there is no oven and no dishwasher. There are no laundry facilities at The Copa Cabana.
Guest access
Guests have exclusive access to the pool, built in sauna and all amenities. You have an exclusive spot to park your car on the left hand side of the driveway, walk to the left of the garage, walk down the path past the steps(be careful) and you will find the Cabana over looking the pool and ocean. If you are arriving late, you may need to use a torch or your phone to safely walk down the short path at night.
Other things to note
Our property has a built-in sauna which is a great novel feature. You're welcome to indulge in your own personal spa treatment in the sauna and we have instructions provided for you so you can use it easily throughout your stay. Please read up on the suitability of taking a sauna based on your own health status. The owners take no responsibility for any illness or injury caused by your use of the sauna.
This property is also perfect for whale watching. Depending on what month you choose to stay you will either see the whales migrating north (May/June/July), or a pod with their brand new whale calf heading back down south (September/October).
If you choose to bring a small dog, there will be an additional fee of $150 added to your booking. Dogs MUST NOT be left unattended in the Copa Cabana; please keep them off the furniture. Please bring your own bedding for your dog.
If enjoying the daybed in the pool area, please ensure the adjustable shade canopy is pushed back in strong winds.
