About the host
Hosted by Aida Taffa
Lawn to the Dunes - an incredible place to stay!
Karel's at Long Beach has been in our family for 70 years. It is a very special place for many family and friends. Spending every weekend at the beach was wonderful. Each weekend we would travel as a family from Canberra to our beach house. We spent weekends walking along the beach, fishing, bushwalking, watching the dolphins, swimming and shell collecting. These were great memories which have stayed with our family to this day. We hope you can create your own memories and enjoy this special slice of heaven.

Why they chose this property
This property was bought 75 years ago. It is the original beach cottage which was bought by my father Karel. It has been totally renovated inside and the position is to die for.
The beach and sand is your backyard. A few steps away from the house you will enjoy total bliss and tranquility at the best beach on the South Coast Long Beach. Long beach is also a dog friendly beach.
