The Villa is the closest property to the ocean at the dazzling Minnamurra River mouth, backing onto a hidden sandy beach across a grassy verge. Swim across the estuary to secluded Mystics Beach, walk the beach between the ocean and the National Park. Only 1.5 hours south of Sydney, tranquil Minnamurra yet a world away from the city life.

From the living room, watch the tides change and the weather roll along the coast and the waves crash on rocky Rangoon Island.

Laze in the sun, play with the kids at low tide in the warm and shallow waters around the sandbank, paddleboard, kayak, or go fishing. Across the estuary, secluded Mystics Beach is backed by National Park bushland: a delight for long beach or bush walks, surfing and swimming.

In the Villa: full central heating for cosy winter nights; extensive book collection for curling up on sofas; games for the kids; smart TV; well equipped and attractive kitchen with gas stove - dream on the view while you cook! Dishwasher and Weber BBQ; two indoor and outdoor dining areas; sheltered courtyard for lazing.

Amazing views, beautiful holiday home.

Stayed here with our 2 small children and visitors from overseas. Villa is amazing with beautiful views, can literally walk out the back gate down to the water. Great, quiet location, coffee shop 5 mins walk away and the golf club is 5 mins the other direction and perfect for lunch/ dinner with or without the kids! Less then 10 min drive to Kiama, 5 min to Jones Beach. Can walk to Jones beach with great views in about 15 mins and to Kiama in about 1 hour and 20.

Wonderful location

We enjoyed this lovely place and looking out at the water. - fantastic views from the deck. The kitchen was well equipped except bring your own coffee machine because they only have a plunger when they said a coffee machine was there. The general amenities were good - only one shower in the second bathroom. The other one was a bath and toilet. Great linen and comfortable beds. The living area was lovely and the outside deck with retractable blind was perfect. Would recommend this lovely place and return.

Reminder

We booked for a long weekend. Having grown up at the beach but now living in the bush I was so beautifully reminded of how being so close to the water is good for the soul. The house is just right for relaxing and all details are thought of, even extension leads for the fans. The ease of access to the beach by swimming the channel was exhilarating, and walking the length of the beach reminded me of times past. Great conversation with family young and old. My mother so enjoyed her time there and keeps commenting on how nice the house was and has already asked me when are we going again? Soon I hope.

The best views!!

This villa is ideally located so that once you arrive you dont have to get in your car! Its quiet, clean, right on the water where you can fish, swim in the river or swim in the surf and the golf club is only a 2 minute walk or call for the courtesy bus. Great for the weekend getaway!!
