Guest Reviews:
"Deck the halls - what a fabulous location to spend time with family! With more than enough beds to sleep 2 young families, we were able to celebrate a memorable Christmas, and cook a substantial Christmas feast for everyone with an impressively stocked kitchen. There are more appliances, bowls, glasses, baking dished and cutlery to use whilst another whole set in in the dishwasher!
The huge deck is a beautiful place to relax and drink a few glasses of wine whilst catching up with friends and family in a serene and private space.
The only background noise is the ever-chirruping cicadas, and the beach is an easy stroll down the street. Great location, fantastic generously furnished house with ALL the comforts of home - in fact, their kitchen was better stocked than mine!!
We hope to return some day :)"

"It was such a lovely place, and we really enjoyed the stay at this house.
As a bunch of Europeans, we almost forgot what a house with double-glassed windows look like :) It felt like home! And the outdoor spa was just amazing. We were 8 adults had the best time at the Deck. I definitely will recommend this place to my friends."

Amazing location close to the beach
The Deck is a short walk to the stunning Elizabeth Beach, and a drive to Blueys and Boomerang beach. We adore this area and were very lucky with the weather. The Deck is well equipped and comfortable and perfect for a family weekend trip.

Lovely big home conveniently located
Had a fantastic long weekend with family. Beach, booth booti trail and weekend markets within 5min walk. Furniture is a little dated but house has all amenities needed. There was some dust around the place so plenty of sneezing. Spa was a hit with the kids, especially on cooler days when the beach was a no go.

Relaxing and connected to nature
The Deck is in a great location, close to beaches, the lack and some nice clubs, yet you still feel immersed in nature. The place is set up well and has some friendly kookaburras that kept us company in the late afternoon. Recommend.

Family vacay vibes
We stayed at The Deck for a Family Christmas - the property was well equipped for everything we needed, especially given we were hosting Christmas lunch for us all and within walking distance (for the young ones!) to the gorgeous Elizabeth Beach! Also to the infamous ‘Reccy Club’ for sunset nibbles and cocktails!! Everything was as described in the add, The outdoor spa and warm shower were an absolute treat, paired with the huge deck for endless hours of outside fun! Would recommend to all of my family and friends - only downside was the onslaught of mosquitoes and bugs, but that is the consequence of backing onto such a beautiful rainforest! Definitely recommend the property but that you also pack bug spray, coils and candles!!

About the host

Hi, my name is Betina and I am the owner of The Deck at Elizabeth Beach. I am born in Denmark and came to Australia when I was 11 years old. I am a former Trauma Nursing Unit Manager but now run my own business - Vegmasters Pty Ltd.

Why they chose this property

Being Danish, we immediately fell in love with The Deck! It was built by and Austrian and Swiss couple and the many European features - double glazed windows, solid raw timber doors, many angles and practical design - were hard to walk away from. The minute we walked in we not only felt at home, but we felt we were on holidays and that was the difference. The Deck is not just a house!

What makes this property unique

Huge deck is great for entertaining many people, but I love the privacy of the outdoor heated spa area. We actually never shower inside but only use the heated outdoor shower surrounded by bush - fantastic!
With double glazed windows, the house never get's too cold or too hot. But I do love the ability to have a romantic night in with the fireplace burning.
Finally - the Bunk Room for the kids! They can have their own private area and what child doesn't like to sleep in the loft area - so cozy and different.
Lie in bed with the windows wide open and just listen to the sound of the jungle that is the bush behind The Deck - it's alive!
