Superb location and a sensationally comfortable stay

A delightfully warm family home with a more than ample supply of offerings from kitchen to bedding to entertainment. A clean home with generously spacious living areas for cooking, entertainment and generally just lounging about. We loved that it was so well appointed there was little need for us to leave. We were more than happy to just stay and relax and venture out to the lovely Smith's Beach, being only a few minutes walk.

Great place for people and pooches

Great location close to the beach and well appointed house with everything you need for a self-sufficient stay. Great place for the dog to stay - plenty of enclosed back yard. Hosts are great with communication and help to make it a great experience.

Best location!

Clean & tidy house with all the amenities needed. Huge selection of board games we enjoyed thoroughly. In such a great location, 5 minute walk to the beach, couldn’t ask for a better place to stay.

About the host

Hosted by Jochen

Originally from Germany, we migrated to Australia in 2003. The plan was to stay for 2-3 years. But... places like Smiths Beach quickly convinced us that there is probably no better place to be than Australia. Smiths Beach quickly caught our absolute love and attention and when the golden opportunity came about to purchase Harry's House we really couldn't hesitate or resist for too long. Ever since, the house has not only hosted our family for many holidays and quiet weekends away. It is fair to say that it has made many families happy over the years; with many of them returning year after year.

Why they chose this property

Spending many summer days at Smiths Beach we fell in love with the ideal mix of being a safe beach whilst providing good waves for surfing and boogie boarding. This combined with amazing views, especially at sunset; but not to forget the quiet "Island / Holiday Charme" that Smiths Beach continues to offer.
