We had a wonderful stay and couldn’t have asked for a better place for the weekend. The house was absolutely beautiful, perfectly presented, and had everything we needed. The pool was a real highlight and made our stay extra relaxing. The space was comfortable, clean, and felt like a true home away from home. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable getaway.

We had a very relaxing holiday staying at Aracalm House. Heather was a great host. The house had everything we needed plus more! Most evenings we sat on the decking overlooking the beautiful pool and garden with a bbq and board games. The dog had a great time exploring the garden. The area is peaceful, close to the beach and not far into town either walking along the beach or a short drive. I would definitely come back to Aracalm!

The location was amazing! The host was lovely, and getting access to the house was seamless. Unfortunately, the linen and bedding was old and stained and did not smell fresh, nor did the house. One pillow on the bed was covered in dog fur, and the pillows generally were horrible. We had to open the windows and doors and let fresh air through, as it was stuffy. It had not been cleaned properly; there was sand on the floors and cobwebs on the ceilings, sand in the shower recess. I hate to give reviews like this, but I need to be honest. We were 4 adults, and everyone felt the same.

Fantastic pet friendly stay!

My family really enjoyed staying here. Very pet friendly, with a big secure yard for them to play in, and close to a dog beach. We enjoyed exploring all around town, as well as the beaches and national park. Heather was always quick to respond to any messages and the house was a great place to unwind at the end of the day. We'd love to stay again in the future!

Very comfortable house in a great location and love that it is pet friendly! Did some great scuba diving with SWR Dive Centre. Heather is a fantastic host, is a great communicator and was so accommodating when we needed to change our booking dates due to cyclone Alfred. Highly recommended :).

About the host

Hosted by Heather sheppard

Host profile image
We have been enjoying the Arakoon area for more than 30 years . It really is a magical spot with seasonal whale watching and natural beauty. Our succession of much loved blue heeler cattle dogs love the dog friendly beach. Hosting a holiday home here is special to us as it allows many other families & fur children to enjoy the area.

Why they chose this property

Aracalm Beach House is within walking distance to two amazing beaches. White sand & beautiful blue waters. The dolphins are often playing in the waves. Fall asleep to sound of the ocean. The National park offers some very good bushwalks and koala spotting

What makes this property unique

Our property is truly dog friendly with a fully fenced large back yard. Your dogs are welcome inside the house (not on furniture or beds please).
We are within walking distance of the beaches, cafes & have natural bushland around us. The swimming pool makes for a special stay. Entertaining for the kids & adults.
