Easter Getaway

The house was lovely, very bright and spacious and furnishings suited the home. The balcony is huge and has a great view of the ocean. It was only a 5 mins walk to the patrolled beach. Would definitely book again. Communication with Felicity was also great.

Fabulous stay- would love to return.

We loved our time at Caves Beach. Felicity’s properly delivered everything promised and was perfect for us, comfortably fitting two families, with heaps of space for adults and teens. The view from the deck is even better in real life. The house so we’ll appointed with everything you may need to enjoy a holiday rental. Fully appointed kitchen, with amble plates, cups, cutlery etc. The close and easy walk to the beach was fantastic and the extra boards and beach goodies at the house a bonus. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely love to return. Thanks to Felicity for sharing your beautiful home with us.

About the host

Hosted by Felicity Moore

We are a Sydney family and bought this house when our children were little. We have so many happy memories of holidays at Caves Beach -whether in the surf, relaxing on the deck looking out over the ocean or playing games in the backyard. The sunsets and whale migrations are a favourite. It's also a lovely winter house with wood fire and open plan kitchen/living
