About this property

Sandydoon - relax by the sea

Welcome to Sandydoon - a place to relax and enjoy !

Nestled into the sandhills and with views of the coast, this is as close as you will get to the popular and renowned Goolwa Beach with the new Goolwa SLSC. Sandydoon is an easy stroll to the beach and the highly rated Kuti Shack - Goolwa PipiCo for a coffee or breakfast. After a swim, its easy to wander home for some lunch and then back to the beach again - an easy going holiday. Hear the waves rolling in at night and breathe in the sea air as you look out from the deck across the sea to the lights of Port Elliot and Victor Harbor in the distance.

Summer or winter, Goolwa is a wonderful holiday spot with everything to choose from - beaches, the River Murray mouth and Coorong reserve, historic Goolwa riverport and paddle steamers, steam train rides, regular festivals and markets, the high standard 18-hole South Lakes Golf Course behind the dunes nearby and a range of eateries and cafes to select from. Explore all that the Fleurieu Peninsula has to offer including the wine regions of Currency Creek, Langhorne Creek and McLaren Vale all within 30 minutes drive - then back to Sandydoon for a walk on the beach before dinner. The Encounter Bikeway passes nearby so why not bring your bikes and spend a day riding around the picturesque coastline - to Middleton / Port Elliot or further on to Victor Harbor. Great range of shops are close by together with surf schools that operate from the Goolwa beach car park. Sandydoon and Goolwa is a wonderful base to do as little or as much as you want and enjoy every moment.

Sandydoon has three well sized bedrooms (QB, DB, 2 x single bunks), spacious open plan kitchen / dining / living area, 1.5 bathrooms, laundry and outdoor entertaining deck with Weber-Q BBQ. Enjoy sea views from the outdoor dining and indoor living space and hear the waves rolling in. Relax on the outdoor lawn area with a dedicated outdoor shower to freshen up after your swim.

The property features split system heating / cooling and ceiling fans, LCD TV, DVD, 2nd LCD in main BR and guest WiFi internet access. Two undercover car spaces with off-street provision for a further 2 cars.

Kitchen is fully equipped including a wide range of platters, cooking utensils and appliances, dishwasher, microwave, espresso-pod machine, etc.

Main bathroom has separate shower and bath and there is a second toilet and powder room upstairs.

The house is fully equipped including linen and towels - just bring your clothes and toothbrush! There are books, games, DVDs and more for your enjoyment, including a number of children’s games and puzzles. A porta-cot and stroller are available for your use.

This is a great spot for a memorable family holiday, weekend getaway or winter escape with a good book and crosswords.

Please let us know if you have any queries or requirements for your booking or stay - we will be pleased to assist.

Superb spot at Goolwa Beach
What a great little beach house to stay in. You’ve seriously never seen a short term rental with that many provisions in the pantry for you to use. Plus being literally just around the corner from Goolwa Beach made it so easy. Plus the supermarket was straight up Beach Road. Many thanks Greta and John.
