'Amaroo' on Candlagan
Welcome to Amaroo, a truly special heritage home perched dramatically on the cliff-top at Mossy Point, where timeless character meets breathtaking coastal scenery.
At the heart of the home is the spacious living room, a warm and welcoming space designed for connection and fun. Here, a full-size pool table takes centre stage, inviting friendly competition and long, laughter-filled evenings with family and friends. It’s a home where memories are made as easily as the ocean breeze drifts in from outside.
The main house features two comfortable bedrooms, perfectly suited for families or close friends seeking a relaxed seaside escape. Each space reflects the home’s heritage charm while offering a peaceful place to unwind after a day exploring the coast.
Step outside onto the verandah and discover a unique hidden gem — three additional external bedrooms, tucked away in their own private nooks. These special retreats offer an unparalleled connection to nature, where you’ll fall asleep to the sound of the ocean and wake to fresh sea air and gentle coastal breezes.
The verandah itself is a destination all its own. Whether you’re enjoying a quiet morning coffee while taking in the sweeping ocean views, or sharing stories and wine under a sky full of stars, this space captures the essence of slow, coastal living.
In every corner, Amaroo tells a story — of heritage, warmth, and natural beauty. It’s more than just a place to stay; it’s an experience that invites you to slow down, reconnect, and savour the magic of life by the sea.

Great location
Mossy Point is a beautiful spot and this house was in a great location.
The house is Heritage- however I feel that this is code for very basic. The floor plan was unusual as 3 bedrooms had no internal access and I felt uncomfortable having my children sleep outside on
their own. (I was aware of this before I booked)
The extremely good price was probably very fair, however I would probably prefer to pay a few more $$ and have the house decluttered, deep cleaned and some newer style beds and more comfortable outdoor furniture.

Fantastic location and view
The house is old and basic, and has some quirky room arrangements including bedrooms accessed from outdoors which can’t be latched from the inside. However it is clean and spacious, well stocked, has a pool table, and the location right near the Broulee bridge is excellent. The house is suitable for large groups of healthy adults, but probably not people with mobility issues (due to steep muddy street access), or families with young children (due to outside bedrooms and nearby cliff).
We enjoyed out time here and would come again at the right price.

Lovely older cottage in a magnificent location. Not crazy about the booking and multiple fees just for a weekend though.

Fantastic beach shack
We had a wonderful weekend visit with lots of little kids running up and down from the house to the lagoon. Amazing living space and views, quirky bedroom layout but worked a treat. We will be back!

Peaceful
A simply styled heritage property. Keep the mosquito coils going as there are not many screens on the windows.
