Too much restrictions
The place is situated in a perfect location as you have the view of Werri Beach. But I didn't like the layout as it tends to split the family activities into 2 floors. There were so many rules and regulations in the house that put so many limitations on us. We felt very restrictive in all our actions we actually put off my family particularly my brother.

Perfect House in Gerringong
We had a fabulous stay at Ataahua. The house is beautiful, well equipped with everything you could possible need and spotlessly clean. Extras like the toiletries, wine and condiments were also a lovely touch. Views of Werri Beach and the Headland are spectacular and it is only a short walk to the beach, local shops and restaurants. Cathy was very friendly and a fabulous host. She gave us a quick run through of everything in the house and advised about restaurants etc in the local area. Communication was very good. It was hard to leave this house after a week, and we would definitely love to stay here again.

Such a beautiful property in a stunning location. Cathy has everything covered at this property from the moment you enter the house. We found it hard to leave the property as we spent our mornings enjoying breakfast by the sea and our afternoons on the back deck watching the sun disappear behind the mountains.

The property is kept in extremely clean condition, had all the amenities we needed and was only a short stroll to the beach. Host, Cathy, was wonderful to deal with and provided us with a detailed rundown of the property and area on check-in. Looking forward to returning in the future.

Gorgeous views from the house
We stayed 2 weeks ago and had a good stay here. The house looks very nice and clean. and it has amazing views of the Werri beach and unobstructed views of the headland. The pool was great to have as well for afternoon swims after heading to the beaches during the morning. Well Equipped kitchen. Even separate wet bar downstairs.

Beautiful
Beautiful clean house, great location close to shops and beach. Complimentary wine and individual toiletries were a nice touch. Lots of Surf/boogie boards, games etc for kids. Great communication with Cathy. Check in would have preferred the lock key system as you need to meet someone at the property for keys and communicate time of arrival/arriving later etc but not a big deal. This may also be to run through the ins and outs of the house but I think most people can figure out for themselves. Thank you for an enjoyable stay.

Spectacular property; stunning views
Cathy, thanks for the opportunity to stay I your beautiful home. The views to Werri Beach from everywhere (balcony, Lounge, Dining, kitchen) and then to the ranges from the rear of house we’re gorgeous. A short stroll down the hill to the beach or to the village centre makes it a perfect location. We did the Coast Walk while we were there and played golf at Gerringong Golf Course. My family were all very relaxed for the duration of our stay and that is in large part due to the wonderful property and location. The pool onsite would be great in Spring, Summer and Autumn.

A lovely family getaway
Our family stay down in Gerringong was lovely. Cathy was really accommodating for small children and had activities covered for young and old. The property is right in the beach and close to parks and swimming spots. Check in was a breeze and Cathy provided local information for where to go for the best food, ice cream etc.. Overall it was an amazing stay and will definitely be back!

Outstanding home with absolutely everything! Highly recommended.
We had a fabulous stay at Ataahua, Gerringong, but a weekend was too short! In the lead up to our arrival, the owner Cathy was very obliging with requests for our stay and offering helpful advice and recommendations for the local area. From the moment we arrived we knew we had chosen a great property, extremely well-equipped with everything you could possibly think of for all types of guests, and by far the cleanest property we have come across to date. A large, well-designed modern home, walking distance to the beach and local village and with spectacular views to match, located in the picturesque charming Gerringong. This is definitely one to put on your list.
