About this property

Sunset Splash Retreat

Relax, unwind, and make the most of Budgewoi’s beautiful lakes and beaches from this welcoming, family-friendly retreat. Perfectly set up for groups and extended families, this spacious home offers comfort, entertainment, and convenience in one great location.

With three generous bedrooms in the main house and an attached studio, there’s space for everyone to spread out and relax. All main house bedrooms include air conditioning and heating for year-round comfort.

Rain or shine, there’s plenty here to keep everyone entertained. Enjoy a friendly game of foosball or mini pool, settle in with your favourite shows across three TVs with streaming services including Netflix, Prime, and Stan, or head outside for a relaxed evening around the firepit toasting marshmallows under the stars. For something more active, take advantage of the provided kayaks and explore the nearby waterways at your own pace.

The home’s open living area is designed for comfort and connection, with a cosy couch, coffee table, and a TV with free-to-air and streaming services, all supported by air conditioning and heating for year-round comfort. A four-seater dining table and inviting outdoor dining space make shared meals easy and enjoyable. The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to cook at home, including an oven and gas stovetop, dishwasher, microwave, kettle, fridge, filtered water tap, a full set of utensils and cutlery, and a BBQ for relaxed outdoor cooking.

Two bathrooms and a well-appointed laundry with a washing machine and dryer add to the convenience, while towels, a hairdryer, and travel essentials are all provided for a comfortable stay. The location places you within easy reach of multiple beaches and lakes, parks, and popular paddle spots, with local shops, cafes, and bottleshops close by and the local pub just a pleasant walk away.

Set in a convenient yet laid-back pocket, the home is only a short stroll from supermarkets, cafes, and local shops, while the surrounding coastline and waterways create a beautiful natural setting for your holiday. Many amenities are within walking distance, though having a car is recommended if you’d like to explore more of the surrounding beaches, lakes, and coastal attractions.

Travelled with family and small children
The pictures of the property advertised were very misleading. The lack of cleanliness in the kitchen drawers, soiled blankets & cushions, was disappointing. Backyard full of bindis and old cigarette butts. I was definitely overcharged and would lower my standards of staying there. The company have not been supported of my experience & refused to refund me. Offering a 10% discount or voucher for next time. No thank you!
