About this property
Sea By Your Side - Perfect Esplanade Living
Step out of your front door, look to your side - and there it is.. The beach, just a few steps away!!
Situated on the Glenelg North Esplanade, this recently refurbished cottage is perfect for short or long term holidays.
If you encounter trouble booking this property, please see our other properties, "Sleep By The Sea" and "Sea At Your Doorstep", whic hare in the same location and offer similar benefits and attributes.
Don’t be surprised if you spot a dolphin just a few metres away from your holiday accommodation. Your perfect view of the sunset will be simply stunning at any time of the year.
Your stay here can offer you the priceless enjoyment of the constant sound of the sea and fresh air, yet ensure that you are within easy reach of all that the City of Adelaide has to offer. The City, Festival Theatre, Casino and Convention Center are all a short 15 minute drive, or an easy 30 minute trip with the Glenelg Tram. Please be mindful that the airport is nearby - 7 km away - so you will see and hear planes coming in. Some people love this, others not so much.
The cottage is a quick beachfront walk to the sophisticated Holdfast Shores Marina and its award winning restaurants. Another few minutes and you are on historic Jetty Road, where the eating, shopping and entertainment facilities are endless. Just Google “Glenelg Beach” to see all that this destination has to offer, including a myriad of sport and beach activities. Your stay may not require a single car trip, as local attractions such as the “Temptation” swim with the dolphins, the BeachHouse amusement park & the brand new $1.3m foreshore playground are all within walking distance.
The place combines a clean, crisp, modern feel with the coziness of an old cottage. The place has been fitted so that you can have a comfortable short or long term stay. It offers a fully equipped kitchen, your own laundry facilities, TV and DVD entertainment, linen and towelling – just pack your toothbrush and bathers!!.
The kitchen will easily cater to those who want affordable home cooked meals; that is, if they can resist the temptation to just walk into one of the cafes or restaurants down the road.
When you first get there, enjoy a coffee on us - just pop a coffee capsule in the machine.
Beds
The property has a queen bed in the master bedroom. A double and single bed in the second bedroom. Both bedrooms fitted with chirorest mattresses to ensure a comfortable holiday stay. The living area contains a futon couch. If needed, can be slept on, but not the most comfortable option.
