Goolwa Beachfront: Pet Friendly, Fireplace, WiFi, Sand Dunes, The best location in Goolwa Beach

Relax and unwind in this special location featuring direct beach access via the path next door.



The property features secluded pet friendly yard, unlimited WiFi, 55 inch Sony Smart TV, fireplace with all firewood, sheets and towels provided. Nothing to worry about - just arrive and start relaxing!



By day there's nothing but sand between you and the ocean, and by night all you will hear is the sound of the waves crashing on the beach. Whether it's surfing, beach fishing, or just walking on the beach you seek, this is a perfect little getaway house for you and your family.



Pet friendly inside and out, so the dogs can come too.



In winter the fireplace and wall mounted heater will keep you cosy and warm, and in summer you can choose the sea breeze or the air conditioning.



Nearby you'll find the Goolwa SLSC patrolled beach, beachside cafes, the Encounter bikepath runs right past the house and don't forget the Corio Hotel for a great pub meal. We also highly recommend Cafe Bombora on the river which is a few minutes away.



Plenty of room in the big backyard with a new stainless steel undercover BBQ area. The dunes provide shelter from the winds, tucked away and secluded.



An ideal Goolwa beachfront location where the whole family can relax and enjoy...

Surfing holiday with the dog

Fantastic house, it had all that we needed to enjoy Goolwa Beach, and the backyard was great for the dog. We used it as a base to surf at Goolwa and Middleton, and could work during the day using the excellent wifi. The dog loved walks to the beach though the dunes. Highly recommended for a beach holiday.

Nice place soured by property manager

The rules imposed and interaction with the property manager made the lead up to our stay unpleasant. We were asked to provide own toilet paper and bin bags, which seemed unreasonable given the cost of the rental. There was a limit imposed on the number of visitors we were allowed to have (2 people!) which was not communicated until we arrived at the property. We had to relocate my son’s 12th birthday family celebration to a neighbouring park as we wanted to invite 6 people (his grandparents and cousins). The house was cosy, well situated and clean. However, we will be avoiding booking any holiday house which is managed by this real estate agent in the future.

Relaxing break

We love this property and have stayed here many times. It was the first time for our two miniature schnauzers and they had a ball. It’s a very comfortable, cosy and relaxing place to stay. Has a lovely feel to the place. Can’t wait to visit again.
