We had such a wonderful time staying a week in the house. Many whales spotted from the deck and a great base for bushwalks. The house had everything we needed for our family of four with a very well equipped kitchen. Thanks for having us!

Great family get-away

Tathra Beach Retreat is just that, a great retreat on the quiet side of the Tathra township yet minutes from the beach. Our family of five, including 3 children under 6 enjoyed a comfortable stay with everything we needed to cook, bathe, and accommodate our lengthy stay. Looking forward to our next stay.

good for whales

The main bedroom and deek were suitable for whale watching, and house is only 100 m from one of the best whale watching headlands. The house was clean and suitable for a relaxed stay.

Fabulous little house

We loved our stay at Tathra Beach Retreat. Clean, comfortable and easy to access. Although not very big, we felt at home from the minute we got there. The property was very pet friendly and the location and view were fantastic. Thank you, we would highly recommend the property to anyone.

Cute older style property

Location was fantastic with whales swimming past each day. We stayed on the coldest day of the year and the little fibro shack struggled to keep us warm but would prob be fine every other day.

Whale watching from the kitchen

The house was in a great location with a fabulous view of the ocean and we were fortunate to be able to see the whales going by in early September. Great little coastal walk from the from door to enjoy.

Wonderful stay in Tathra

Great property to use as a base to explore the beautiful Sapphire coast. The property was well located in Tathra and very well equipped and spotlessly clean. The hosts were very good at communicating and happy to host a well behaved dog. Would highly recommend. Thanks so much for hosting us.

Fantastic location

This was our second stay and we loved every minute. From the sound of the birds in the morning to watching sunset from the deck while listening to the sound of the surf. It is a lovely 2 bedroom until with a huge north facing deck. Really enjoyed the upgraded kitchen.
