This is a beautifully restored retro beach cottage. We felt comfortable from the moment we walked in, and only wish we had booked to stay longer. It is perfectly positioned with views of the beach & water. A short stroll to the beach. A lovely big deck, friendly birds and open fire make this a cosy, relaxing choice for a beach stay. The fact that it is also pet friendly made it perfect for us. Thanks Steve & Suzie!

Our group absolutely loved our stay at Thalasa Cottage. The property beautifully mixes the old with the new, creating a unique and wonderful atmosphere. The absolute highlight of our stay was the beach view—it was nothing short of spectacular! Waking up to that scenery every day made our trip truly unforgettable. We highly recommend this place for groups or anyone looking for a special getaway.

Our family had a wonderful weekend at Thalasa. The cottage was great ..very clean , well equipped, super comfortable and in the perfect location with stunning ocean views. Despite the wet weather we managed to have fantastic time and hope to return in warmer weather to take advantage of the fabulous deck.

Perfect getaway

We had a fantastic time at Thalasa, the space was perfect for our fanily of 5 (plus the pooch) and the view was so beautiful. We enjoyed the visiting birdlife and the quick walk to the beach - great for kids with the shallow river mouth to play in and the rockpools to explore. We hope to come back one day!
