Set within the Kings Beach district in Caloundra, Charming Coastal Cottage has air conditioning, a patio, and sea views. Both free WiFi and parking on-site are accessible at the holiday home free of charge. The property is non-smoking and is located 700 metres from Kings Beach.

I like how the house can accommodated all of us and my dogs. It feels like home and the convenience of having everything in the house is so great, such as fully stocked kitchen with cutlery, appliances even with the al foil, the soap, the dishwasher tablets etc. So much better than staying in the apartment hotel that says it has everything, but doesn't. I love how big the backyard is and the big deck as well, the plank of timber on the tree house does the trick for my girls to play adventures in the afternoon. How close we are with the beach. I love how I can relax or read a book in the couch and feel the ocean breeze or have a nap in the bedroom and still feel the ocean breeze.

    It was in a great location, very close to the Bulcock beach and the shops. We just worn our swimming gears in the room, grabbed the beach towels and walked to the beach. Bulcock beach had the swimming area with life guards and was shallow. Ideal for small kids. There was a night market too held on the street while we stayed there. Very clean hotel and quiet guests .
