Formerly an on-site managed property, we have been able to reduce our costs (and our pricing) by providing a continuing high level of service from off-site. Our management team live close-by, and if they are not actually on-site they will be only minutes away. Same service for much less.
My favourite things about this area are the relaxed lifestyle, beautiful views, the climate and whale watching that always gives a huge thrill. I love the markets at the weekend and enjoying a good cup of coffee looking out over the lake or the ocean. A relaxing lunch out at Wheeler's or The Wharf are also favourite for great food, wine or coffee.
Experience the climate, beauty and spectacular scenery of Merimbula and the Sapphire Coast. We enjoy a temperate climate with perfect summers and in winter, the warm clear days offer a relaxing break making an ideal winter getaway. This is a very special area of great natural beauty and history. The coastline offers many pristine deserted beaches, forests, rivers and lakes, with picturesque rolling hills and mountain backdrops. Although this is the smallest of the coastal shires, it has an extremely diverse variety of scenery including spectacular coastline, beautiful lakes and rivers, lagoons and inlets, quaint rural villages, historic towns and wilderness and visitors will enjoy a wide variety of experiences during their stay.
