For a couple that want to escape then Southview is the perfect place for you to unwind and relax. Your holiday destination offers a relaxed atmosphere. It's just a 2 minute walk to Sandon Point beach and a close walk along the beach to Bulli beach.

Catch the beautiful sunrise over the ocean or perhaps a surf at Sandon Point beach which is listed as one of an Australian top surfing break. Enjoy a coastal walk or perhaps a bike ride along the beach track which goes to Wollongong and beyond. Cafes by the beach and Bulli beach pool are close by. Explore national park or local bushland, or simply chill out by our heated spa plunge pool.

Bulli is approximately an hour’s drive south of Sydney airport and is 15 minutes north of the Wollongong CBD. Originally established as a coal mining town in the 1850s, Bulli is also known as the "Black Diamond District". It is a historic part of the Northern Illawarra that enjoys pristine sunshine.

Wonderful place to stay

We really enjoyed our stay. Property was clean and well maintained. We stayed in the Seaview unit which was so pleasant, especially in the evenings, with a breeze and views all around. Children and I enjoyed spending time in the heated pool. Loved exploring the local area. Highlights were exploring the rock pools at the nearby beach (walking distance) and Science Space at University of Wollongong. Hosts were really communicative and welcoming. Many thanks for our stay. We hope we can come again some time.

Idyllic Illawarra Coast Getaway spot

The one bedroom ocean view apartment with wraparound deck is a delightfully comfortable spot in which to rest and relax to beautiful bird sounds along with great sleep and enjoyment of indulgent amenities like the jacuzzi tub and double shower plus fresh cappuccino. Neil was a wonderful, friendly and accommodating host who made sure everything about our stay was enjoyable. Walking distance you'll find delicious oceanfront cafes, beach and walking paths, while short drives get you to more dining options, beaches, hikes, wildlife, landmarks and also Wollongong's university campus, oceanfront golf course, and wonderful stadium for sporting and other events. My husband and I wholeheartedly recommend the rental where we loved staying for a week.
