Hidden Shoreline Retreat

Beautiful property with amazing views and natural shoreline landscaping. Sunrise and sunsets are amazing from the deck. Well appointed house, comfortable bedding. Parking is challenging, the home is hidden among others on the street. We arrived after dark which was an additional challenge with the steep grass path to and from the property. Know this going in to the stay and this becomes a small challenge for a big payout. Great owners, excellent communication.

Great views but ...

This property, once you get to it, is very nice. The house is comfortable and the views are spectacular. However, it is very difficult to walk to the house having to use a steep grass hill with no sidewalk or handrails. While there are some provided amenities inside the house, there is nothing welcoming. The house has a very nice outside deck but has no patio furniture other than a picnic table to sit at. What could be a sensational vacation spot is mediocre at best.

Wonderful property

We loved the location, with its outstanding views out over the water. The house is modern and everything worked well. Really enjoyed having Gunyah beach one minute from the front gate and Jibbon beach less than 5 minutes walk away. The access down a grassy slope is unusual but works well as long as everyone visiting is in good shape. There was plenty of on-street parking nearby. Property owner was responsive to our questions. A great place to stay.

Beautiful House and Location

This is a fantastic property with stunning views from every room. Wrap-around decks, as well as a well-appointed kitchen and laundry room meant we had everything we needed for a great stay. Bundeena is a charming town, and from the house it's only a short walk to all the cafes and the supermarket, with secluded Gunyah Beach just steps away. Our only regret is that we couldn't stay longer, and would love to go back someday.

Lovely Spot, expensive

We loved the location and the house was immaculate. We just feel that it’s poor value as you literally only have two evenings and 1 day, having to check out so early on the Sunday. There needs to be weekend rates. Also access is hard. No off street parking and a steep slope to carry all supplies down. We loved the place and would go back if cheaper.

Great views

Great house & view & level of cleanliness except ensuite.. ants/droppings from down light.. relativity private. motor vehicle access very dangerous, I believe was neighbours drive way (this should’ve been explained better as I almost damaged my car and had to get strangers to help me out, struggling to get traction) Inc walk way for anyone elderly or difficulty walking... Owner very accommodating in relation to reservation. Very pleased with kitchen supplies (earl grey ;)).

Magnificent spot and view

Just stayed there over the weekend. The house was beautifully clean, open, and spectacular views of the ocean. Was perfect for a little get away! Although it was raining so couldn’t make the most of the beach, it was just beautiful sitting and enjoying the rain and the ocean. The only feedback was the little trek to the place, was a little steep and hard walking down wet grass as was tricky getting to the house! Other than that it was spot on, equiped with enough to get you through. Beds comfortable, linen provided, bbq, Netflix and clean bathrooms.

Fantastic house, wonderful location

We stayed at the house on the rock for a girls weekend in May. It was a wonderful location, right on the water. We were lucky & had beautiful weather & swam both days at the little beach below.

Great spot for a beach break.

Stayed for a few nights in Jan with a 6 & 4yr old. As close to the beach as you can get, and right next to the fabulous restaurant and cafe is across the road. Love Pearl Beach!

Time to Chill

WOW! Thank you so much to allowing us to stay in your amazing home! These pictures don't really show the awesome property so much better in reality. Myself and 3 friends felt like we were on an island somewhere just so relaxing and not a care in the world. If you need a break from city life this is definitely the place once their you will never want to leave! We will be back soon! Kind regards Suzie

Superb property and location

We had a wonderful and relaxing time at house on the rock. The views were spectacular, the house very clean and comfortable and it had everything you could possibly need. It had a very well equipped kitchen so you could cook up a storm if the heart desired. Otherwise you're very close to the shopping village if you prefer to eat out. The beautiful Gunyah Beach is right on your doorstep, and it is just a short stroll to the start of Jibbon Beach trail walk. Once you arrive you need not get in your car until you need depart. The host was very responsive and accommodating. Was sad to leave and I cannot wait to come back and stay at this wonderful house again!

Peaceful and relaxing

The house and the location are supremely relaxing. It has been designed to fully enjoy the outdoors without being intrusive on the landscape. Snorkelling, bushwalking, bird watching and fishing are all at the doorstep! The location is just outstanding on every level. We loved our stay and will be back.

Fantastic Place. Stunning Location

We stayed at the House on the Rock over the Easter break in 2016 with some friends from Queensland. There were 3 kids and 4 adults. We absolutely loved the place. The views are fantastic and the house has everything you need. The location is perfect with a short walk down a flight of stairs to Gunyan Beach where you can swim and its located approximately 5 mins walk into town.Very well priced for the quality of the accommodation and the owner was great to deal with. We will definitely be back.

Perfect escape

A perfect location for a girls weekend away, lovely walk down to beach and views from house amazing, parking on road and slight walk down grassy hill to house could be interesting in wet weather but we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would go again. The access to beach and walk around to village very peaceful.

Beautiful Place to Stay!!

Great property, views for miles and everything you need. Quite new and very clean and comfortable! Not much in the way of cafes/restaurants but we brought our food and went across to Cronulla for lunch one day. We had an amazing girls weekend there! Would go back in a heart beat!!

Peaceful cliff top retreat

House on the rock is the perfect choice for friends / families alike who want a quality large cliff top apartment. With views like this we did not want to leave after a 1 week stay. Bush walks/beach on your door step giving you the best of both worlds!

Beautiful house!

The house is literally on a rock. It is situated in a beautiful location just above a gorgeous beach. I stayed here with work friends to attend a friends wedding in Audley. It was perfect for our stay at home dinners and breakfasts. The house has gorgeous decor and has a lovely room plan. Would recommend this place especially for the affordability but the one downside was difficult access from the road. It was hard to find at night and even harder to get to in the dark.
