Thank you for your lovely review Elizabeth. We love that you are able to get so much enjoyment at By The Sea, Culburra Beach and that it will be forever remembered for the good times you share with your family.
Property is clean and well looked after, albeit a little tired. There is no view of the beach/ocean, but is quiet and can hear the waves. Easy check in, check out and nice to have sheets and towels provided. Also well stocked for kids, although we had brought our own gear anyway. Would recommend for a family.
We had a wonderful time staying at By the sea. Communication from Vanessa was excellent. Location of the home was a stones throw to the beach, which made beach adventures easy with small children and dogs. Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful home.
We had a wonderful time at this holiday house. It was spacious and clean. We especially liked the convenience of the dog friendly beach just two minutes walk and the extra large balcony. We had a fun games night and gave the ping pong table a good work out! Thank you for a great stay!

Beautiful beach minutes away
The house, kitchen are spacious and clean. Not to mention there was a few days raining and can't go anyway. Lucky there is enough space to play family games inside the house. It's so close to the beach. Will definitely come back to stay again.

Your welcome anytime Tom, thanks for being such wonderful guests
Nice property near the beach. Dog friendly, with a dog friendly beach
Lovely property with a ovely sun drenched balcony only minutes to the beach. The yard was secure which was perfect for my dog, however, a little small, perfect for my little dog. The house comfortably fits 2 familys with 2 separate living areas and it has a nice spa. I would recommend this property especially if you have a dog.

Thanks for your comments Teresa, we hope you will stay with us again!
We had a brilliant stay at by The Sea at Culburra beach. The property is well-equipped with all the essential requirements needed for a family holiday getaway. Enjoyed my morning coffee with the family on the wonderful sun-filled balcony, hearing the ocean and viewing the sea. The beach is just a 5-minute walk to the beautiful beach.
Culburra is a lovely beach town that is picturesque with its selection of waterways and activities nearby.
Thank You, we had a wonderful holiday.

Thanks Tenya - so happy you found the house and facilities suitable.
My family of 7 including my daughter, her husband and grandchild stayed together in this amazing house. Having the two separate areas for living rooms and double beds meant that everybody got their own space, it was a short 2 night visit. We had amazing breakfast and dinner out on the balcony. A stone throw from the beautiful beach honestly, you could not ask for more. This place is an absolute gem and we made promises to ourselves that we would come back again and again so wonderful thank you for this fantastic stay!!

Great to hear you enjoyed your time Nathan. Thanks for choosing to stay with us!
We had a lovely, relaxing stay. They weather wasn’t always favourable, but being so close to the beach, we made the best of the weather when we could. For the rest of the time, the house had ample space with two living areas. The lounge room upstairs has a beautiful and comfortable lounge. Always happy to find pet friendly accommodation that have great people spaces too! Thanks again, we really enjoyed our stay.
Fantastic property, conveniently located with everything we needed for our weekend stay.
It was great to be able to take our furry friend away with us too.

Hi Brett, sorry to hear that your stay did not meet expectation. We do try to create a comfortable and enjoyable experience for our guests at an affordable price.
Great beach house and even better than in the photos!
We loved our stay in this property. it was a great size, magnificent location, very clean, well equipped and with nice little touches and inclusions. We would come back in a heart beat and are already looking to book this house in the future.
We recently stayed here hoping to have a relaxing and restful weekend away to enable us to recharge and our expectations were well met. The house was beautiful, close to the beach and well appointed. We would not hesitate to stay here again and would highly recommend it.
