Karelda – Pet Friendly – Absolute Waterfront – Stunning Views
218 Penguins Head Rd, Culburra Beach
Description
2024 Award Winner - Best Luxury Property.
Start your day at Karelda sipping on a Nespresso on your private wooden bench at the edge of the headland and take in the turquoise waters stretching out into the distance.
When everyone is awake (or maybe while they’re still sleeping for a peaceful morning) grab a towel and walk right down to the water to sink your toes into golden sands and sparkling waves of Culburra Beach. Enjoy a swim, surf, or sunbake whilst the kids splash in the waves and your four-legged friends tire themselves out on the endless coastline. At the nearest end of the beach just a few doors down is Tilbury Cove, which is protected from winds and strong currents and has a playground, making it perfect for relaxing family swims.
Return to enjoy lunch cooked outside on the BBQ or in the modern and fully-furnished kitchen with its spectacular views through the enormous sliding glass doors towards the ocean, and eat looking out onto the waves. During downtime, battle over a board game at the table or watch Netflix; air conditioning throughout the property and a gas fire in the living room ensure maximum comfort in all weather.
When it’s time for more adventure, you have easy access to two beaches, Penguin Head Lookout is just two minutes’ walk away with incredible views in both directions, and just to the north the owners recommend checking out Seven Mile Beach and Gerroa. You don’t even have to leave the house to find close up sightings of whales (in season) and dolphins.
End your days with a few drinks out on the grass of the cliff edge to watch the most magnificent display of the Milky Way you’ve ever seen emerge with the people you love, and rest easy knowing everything you need for the perfect holiday will be provided here at Karelda.

Reviews
Stylish modern home with stunning ocean views
Kevin F - 15th March 2024Karelda is located atop Penguin Head which affords stunning ocean and beach views. The stylish modern four-bedroom home has luxury fittings throughout and is functional and flexible. The kitchen is open-plan and very clean. Bedrooms are spacious with very comfortable beds. Minor issues were dealt with promptly by the managing agent.
Thank you Kevin for leaving a fantastic review, we’re delighted you had a comfortable stay. Nothing is more important for a holiday than well located accommodation with the best amenities. We hope you stay with us again soon.
Over The Moon
MICHELLE P - 5th August 2023Stayed here with my Mother and Sister - we absolutely loved the property and could not recommend it highly enough, you certainly will not be disappointed....from the moment you walk thru the front door, the views are whoa. Property is very private from the road...sometimes when you book you arent sure by the photos, this is truly what you see is what you will be getting photos are spot on..... If you are thinking about this one I promise you, no need go ahead, you will be Over The Moon.
Thank you for choosing to stay and for leaving us a stellar review. We’re pleased you enjoyed your stay, and really appreciate such a wonderful recommendation. We hope we see you on another holiday with us soon.

Beautiful Weekend
Neil T - 28th May 2023We had a great weekend at Karelda. Everything was just right. Perfect location with a beautiful outlook over Culburra Beach. Enough room for the pets to roam and play with a fantastic view looking North, bathed in sunshine. The house was excellent. We would stay there again anytime. The early check in was very welcome. Overall a beautiful Weekend getaway.
