Perfect stay
The house was immaculate, great layout, comfortable furnishings, warm fire on rainy days, and every amenity we could ask for. Perfectly located amongst the bush next to the beaches, with so many friendly kangaroos. The host was incredibly accommodating, ensuring our stay was nothing short of perfect.

A special hideaway
This property is unique. 5 min. from the beach, 5 min. from shop & cafe. Drenched in sunshine and privat. Visits by Kangaroos and Rosellas. Very interesting library, board games and video games. A great selection of outdoor activities. We had 2 teenagers in our family and they were fully occupied. Great achievement. I highly recommend the property.

Amazing house
Amazing house in the best location in Bendalong. The two pavilions (one for bedrooms, the other for kitchen/living) with an interconnecting covered deck is perfect for those with children. The house is clean and well ventilated for hot summer days. Dave was also a pleasure to deal with. We will be back!

Lovely beach house
We’d stayed in this house before and booked again as it’s a really lovely place to be. It’s close to the beach, and a nice place to stay put and relax with a book, or to venture out from and explore the nearby beaches and bushland by foot or pushbike (there are a couple of bikes in the garage). On this stay we discovered the café at nearby Manyana and its delicious cakes and coffee (and there are lovely beaches at Manyana too). The kitchen is well-equipped and we liked that the bedrooms are separated from the living area. Recommended.

Very relaxing
We had a lovely time, and wished we could have stayed longer. The house has a lovely feel, and we felt very relaxed there. The shaded deck between the two wings of the house is great for yoga. It's hard to beat the location - close to the beach, bush and local wildlife. Hoping we can go back sometime.

Perfect R&R!
We enjoyed a true 'Aussie Christmas' in a quiet, peaceful bush setting surrounded by friendly wildlife. The house had everything we needed and more. A well-equipped kitchen, plenty of space, light and airy with lots of ceiling fans to keep it cool and comfortable during the perfect hot weather. The house is in a great location with an easy walk to Washerwomen's Beach. The hot/cold outdoor shower was handy to rinse off after the beach. Thanks Dave for being a very accommodating owner and letting us check in early and thanks for letting us stay in your Beach house in such a beautiful area.

Great Home in a great location
This house is wonderful, the layout is great and all the amenity's you might want are available. Of course the rural backdrop is the real star and the house uses it well. Tucked into a corner of the bush with a large patio on both sides of the property. Lot's of opportunity to relax and watch things happen. We will definitely stay again.

Perfect beach house!
We really enjoyed our stay at Ebbys beach house. The spacious and modern interior has an amazing view of the surrounding bush land and you can hear the crashing waves from the nearby beaches. Beautiful Australian birds and kangaroos are always enjoying life right outside the house. It's such a relaxing atmosphere. The house was equipped with everything we needed and was incredibly clean and comfortable. 10/10 - would definitely recommend a stay here!

Superb Quiet Location
This place has a lovely feel about it. The house is beautifully presented, clean and spacious. It is a great location with nice walks, good surf, awesome beaches and amazing native wildlife. We saw kangeroos, king parrots and some playful sting rays at the boat ramp. We came down here with another family, seven people. It is a nice place to come and chill. Peter

We had a lovely time staying at Ebby’s during Christmas 2017. My kids loved seeking the kangaroos and the lovely birds near the house. Will definitely stay again if we are visiting Bendalong.

A perfect holiday house!
We loved our stay at Ebbys Beach House and Bendalong generally. We had 3 little toddlers and 5 adults and had a perfect 4 days at the house. It remained cool in hot weather, the kitchen and lounge areas (there were 2) were just right for the group and we even had some fun playing on the ping pong table and using the boogie boards. And the kids loved the kangaroos. A great house and the owner is an absolute delight to deal with. We will be back!

Great Family Retreat
We spent 7 thoroughly relaxing days at Ebbys Beach House over the Summer. The house is surrounded by bush land and attracts many different types of animals and birds, especially kangaroos that fed out of our children's hands. The layout of the house separating entertaining and sleeping areas is great, as the adults get to enjoy themselves as much as the children. We have already booked to return same time next year.

Beautiful Escape
Absolutely loved the tranquility and location of the property, walking distance to all beaches and corner shop. Bedrooms were very comfortable and the 2 living rooms and new kitchen were a great asset. The kangaroos visited morning and afternoon which was a bonus along with the surfboards, boogie boards and bikes.We loved our stay and are looking forward to going back.

Ebby's provided the perfect base for our extended family's Easter getaway. The contemporary configuration with the sleeping wing separated from the living area allowed the 3 generations to share the space in harmony. Ebby's provided all the creature comforts plus plenty of fun equipment to keep the young & old entertained for the entire 5 days. The kids have suggested we make this an annual tradition & the adults all agree.

About the host

Hosted by Dave Petschack

Host profile image
We have been in love with the South Coast for decades. escaping every opportunity we can to surf and be close to nature.

Why they chose this property

We bought an old shack in 1997 in the perfect location - close to the beach and nestled in the bush. Unfortunately, it just about fell down and we needed to have a bigger house for our large family and friends so we built Ebbys Beach House.

What makes this property unique

We have travelled to many countries in the world surfed across Europe, Asia and the Pacific. We are always so happy to come home to Bendalong. The bush, the beach and the surf are truly incredible.
