We loved our stay at this stunning house right on the beach Amazing views of the coastline, mountains and river. The house is so well set up with everything we needed, it is a little piece of paradise, we wish we were staying longer. Thank you to the owner Aidan we have really enjoyed our stay & so has our dog.
Great location. Sunrise over the beach, sunset over the lake.
Great location. Right on the beach and short drive to other locations. Lovely home with character. I love that the dogs were welcome too.
Excellent communication with Aidan.
Thank you
We had a great family weekend at this beautiful property at Culburra Beach. It’s a lovely beach house in a great spot, right on the beach with views of the water from just about every room. The house was very well stocked with everything we could need and very comfortable. Our host Aidan was fabulous to deal with and very professional. I highly recommend a stay at the Lighthouse.

Dear Sophia, we are delighted that you enjoyed your stay at The Lighthouse to celebrate a special family birthday and look forward to having you all back again in the future.
Best wishes, Aidan
Our family had a lovely week at The Lighthouse. The weather was a bit patchy but the house allows a spectacular view out to sea, a very short walk down to the surf and beautifully landscaped garden which ensured a pleasant experience in any weather.
Aiden was a great communicator and has equipped the house with everything needed to cook and relax in style.
Thanks for the booking at short notice.
We had a wonderful time and will certainly be back. The host was very kind and helpful and flexible with checkin / checkout times.
Pros:
- amazing location with 360 degree views of the water
- lots of space and not in top of neighbours
- direct access to the beach which was dog friendly
- property was beautiful and spacious, and extremely dog friendly. Outdoor shower really handy
- Culburra is a great location… approx 30 mins or less to Nowra, Shoalhaven heads, Huskisson / Jervis Bay, and a little further to Kangaroo valley and Berry. Lots to do in Culburra but if you want to see a little more in the region, there are several options
Thanks for a great stay and also the hamper of chocolate and wine for Easter!
A fabulous house with everything one could need!
Wonderfully close to the beach which you can see from every window!
A very short walk to the sand and surf. The dogs had a ball!
We had a much needed rest and recreation
Can’t wait to go back!!
If your perfect holiday is to be in a great location where you can have a great outlook, stay in a well-appointed home, enjoy the serenity and soak up the beach vibe, then this is the spot to be. Really appreciated the opportunity to experience this.
Fantastic mid winter stay at The Lighthouse on Culburra Beach. Aidan was great to deal with and the house was exactly as described. Welcomed on arrival by the view and a pre-stacked fire place and outside fire pit, as well as the lovely bottle of wine! The photos of the house and the view don't do either justice. A well equipped kitchen, big deck and direct access down the path to the beach were great. Really enjoyed our stay.
You couldn't ask for a better position right on the beach! Not only does this house have amazing views of the beach it also has views of the lake. You can watch the sun rise from your bed or the living room & watch the sun set over the lake. Great private access to the beach from the garden & it's particularly well set up for the doggies. My little dog loved running on the beach & playing ball on the lawn. I came for a quiet refuge for peace & relaxation & I certainly achieved that. This property is private compared to a lot of other coastal properties too. Finally Aidan was a lovely attentive yet not at all intrusive host, eager to please. I had a wonderful stay & my dog did too. I highly recommend The Lighthouse.
A truly wonderful experience right on top of the Culburra dunes. Amazing views out to sea as well as back across the Shoalhaven. Lovely house too. Clean, comfortable, quiet. Thanks for a very relaxing week.
Best place we have ever stayed even though it rained most days
Family of 4 with a dog, we all really really enjoyed the house.
So closed to the beach, we were there even if it was raining.
The kids each got to sleep on a queen size bed, such a treat.
All the beds were very comfy!
Our dog had a special enclosed yard and a doggy door to get out. Not to mentioned he was allowed on the beach and unleashed.. best part of Culburra Beach!
The kitchen had everything we could possibly need.
The bath very was spacious.
We were all very happy and had an amazing and relaxing time.
Thank you so much for sharing your amazing place!
The location of this property was A+, loved sitting out on the balcony and in the backyard listening to the waves roll in. The kitchen was very well stocked and the living area comfortable for our family. Communication from Aiden was excellent and made for a very relaxed stay.
The house was just perfect for our family. It was well stocked with everything you’ll need for a holiday plus more. Amazing view, comfy beds, beautifully furnished and so liveable not to mention the fabulous sonos sound system. It was the perfect setting for a lazy summer holiday. The extras fire pit, outdoor shower, access to beach and dog friendly yard was the icing on the cake. We also got to see dolphins every morning, such a treat! Aidan was so responsive and accomodating and the neighbours were lovely too. You just can’t go wrong! Thanks for a truly memorable summer holiday Aidan!
Fabulous outlook to sea enjoyed on expansive verandah. All amenities provided even a fire!
Enjoyed our stay immensely - all our needs met. Fenced area at side for dogs was a bonus. Beautiful view, comfortable beds, spacious living areas, great kitchen with all supplies and equipment. The best place we have stayed in Culburra. And the owner is very accommodating!
What a fantastic place to stay by the sea. Highly recommended. My my self, husband and dog Lucy Lou will be coming back again and again! Great communication with the owner, lovely to deal with. Thank you!

Our first time to Culburra and we loved it. The house had direct access to the beach which was great for our puppies. The house had everything to make you feel comfortable. We will be back.
