“Thank you for your review, I’m so glad you enjoyed the house! Yes, the road can be a little windy as we are right on the waterfront, but the good thing is the access to the house itself is quite easy — it’s only about 15 steps from the garage to the main door, which is very convenient for a waterfront property. Suitable for most of the age group. Hope to welcome you back again sometime!” 😊
Shelly was very responsive and friendly with all her communication. The house was spacious, clean and very well equipped. The card and chocolates were a lovely welcome gesture. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would recommend this property.
Excellent response from owner, house immaculate and so well fitted out. Nothing forgotten, from towels, fully fitted kayaks, kitchen, bathrooms etc. space open, light and large. Loved it

This home is incredibly comfortable and functional. Bedrooms and ensuites are like a 5 star hotel, and the open kitchen & living areas are spacious while cozy, with a killer view of your personal beach on Pittwater. Suited a family visit from overseas - they were blown away by the lifestyle the home and surrounds delivered!!!

Thank you, Sheilah! We’re so glad you and your family enjoyed your stay. It truly is a special escape for anyone looking to relax and take in the beauty of Pittwater. We’re thrilled to hear your overseas guests were impressed—it means a lot!
My family and I had the pleasure of staying five nights at this lovely waterfront escape in July. This well-appointed home is even more beautiful than the online pictures, and it has everything you need to make you feel at home for a perfect stay. The views from the master bedroom, deck, and living area are breathtaking, and we enjoyed waking up to the birds serenading us each morning.Shelly is a fantastic host who is extremely responsive, and her detailed guide book provides great suggestions for what to see and do in the area. We would definitely stay here again when we get back to the Northern Beaches, and we’ll recommend this home to our friends and family!

Waking up every morning to views of the water, what else is there to be said...Shelly was an amazing host right from when we booked all the way through our stay. Always available and ready to help.Would definitely recommend to all.
The perfect place to unwind and have fun with family. We loved the location and the house has perfect views. An added unexpected bonus was the kayaks that came with the house, allowing us to really see just how beautiful Pittwater really is.

Looking forward to hosting you again.
Had a lovely time at the property. Very easy to deal with and house was great for our Group and the view was amazing. Only issue is cars (especially if slightly lowered) will not be able to get into the driveway.

Thank you for your honest review, We glad you and your family and friends had great time.
Regarding to the drive way, it is very rare to have a waterfront property with flat land in Avalon beach and Clareville area, we definitely consider to improve the property as prefect as possible.
Thank you!
Beautiful place to enjoy a relaxing weekend.
From the welcome bottle of champagne to the meticulously organised house with magical views we had a great family get together. Thank you for sharing your beautiful place

Hi Maree, we are so glad you and your family had great time! You are welcome to come back anytime.
We really enjoyed our weekend. There was everything we needed, and more.
Extremely clean, well appointed, comfortable beds, easy to relax and take in the views. Very steep block, so lots of stairs.
Would recommend.

We had a lovely stay with our family in this stunning house. Lots of beautiful features in the house with multiple balconies across the bedrooms. Beware the access to the house with our large car was a little challenging as the driveway to the property is narrow.

Wonderful secluded house with all the bells and whistles
My family and I stayed at this house over my wedding and it was wonderful. Enough space for everyone to sprawl and incredible views over the water. Only thing I will mention is driveway and pedestrian access is via quite a steep drive and staircase so just need to be aware for anyone with mobility issues. Beautiful house and everyone was very happy! Thank you hosts

Congratulations for your wedding! We are glad everyone was happy! It is truly a beautiful part of Sydney with magnificent Pittwater views, a place you can create unforgettable memories.
In water front position this part of Sydney, most of the properties are not flat, need to have drive way take you down the waterside. Fortunately our beach house already have easier access compare to any other surrounding properties. You are right, definitely if you have mobility issues, with any waterfront properties should ask the host first to make sure before booking.
Hopefully we can host you again in the future.
This house is better than the photos, we had the most wonderful time. Every consideration has been made. It’s warm, comforting and the views are breath taking. We would love to come back, I honestly couldn’t fault this home. We stayed for our wedding weekend and it will always have a very special place in our hearts.

Our family based in SW WA are used to wonderful houses with wonderful vistas. This house and its location accommodated all our requirements. The access was a novelty and even those in their 70s and 80s with hip issues enjoyed the steepness without complaint. And as a result everybody behaved well towards one another!
Our one tip would be to include beach towels.

Hi Sharne,
I’m so glad you and your family had great time to catch up at our beach house!
We do have plenty of beach towels supplied in the dining/living area under the decoration table in the basket. I should remind you to use that when we were on the phone!
We welcome you and your family to stay at our Clareville waterfront house anytime in the future!
All the best for year 2024!
Shelly and Annie
We had an amazing stay! The view over Pittwater is breathtaking, and the house is spacious, clean and well presented. Shelly, the host, went above and beyond for our large group—she arranged an extra queen air mattress in the master bedroom for the kids and provided additional sheets and towels.We brought our own paddle boards and kayak, but Shelly also offers kayaks for guests to use at the private beach. The beach is stunning—quiet and peaceful. We had it all to ourselves!The kitchen is very well equipped with a large fridge, freezer, pod coffee machine, and appliances like an air fryer. We cooked most meals and had everything we needed. A few extra hand towels, tea towels, and oven mitts would be helpful.Bathrooms were spotless and stocked with towels, shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel. The master bathroom is a highlight, with an incredible view from the bath. All the Bedrooms were clean, comfortable, and air-conditioned.The laundry has a washer, dryer, ironing board and bench, though a hanging rail would be useful for items that can’t go in the dryer. The only minor downside to this property was a strong septic smell on one side of the house, occasionally noticeable on the back deck.Overall, this is a beautiful and unique property—perfect for families looking for a relaxing getaway surrounded by nature. The views, private beach, and thoughtful touches make it truly special. Thank you, Shelly, for your wonderful hospitality! We’d definitely stay again!
