About this property

"As You Like It." KIAMA.






You will like to take a quick stroll down to Kendall's Beach, surf, sunbake and spot the migrating whales, playing dolphins and even, if you are lucky, a sunning seal.

Or just relax with a book or a movie in this brand new, beautifully designed, fully equipped and luxuriously furnished, private quiet apartment.

Or you may like to explore the famous Kiama blowholes, (large or small,) nearby Minnamurra Rainforest and Falls, the Jamberoo Action Park, historic Berry, Southern Highlands and Kangaroo Valley, are all close by.

Alternatively, stay out of your car, as Kiama town itself offers charming boutiques, restaurants, cafes, gyms, two rock pools, Leisure and Aquatic centre, art galleries and weekly seaside markets.

After all this exhausting holiday activity you will sleep soundly to the lullaby lap lapping of the waves caressing the shores...


As you can see, you will like it!

Kiama was a great spot to visit.
The property was great for our 4 night stay. Ocean views and close walking access to town. The Kiama blowhole was about 30 mins walk from the accommodation and the smaller blowhole about the same distance. The owner was very friendly.

Overnight getaway
We made a spur-of-the-moment decision to get out of town (Sydney) for a couple of days and an overnight stay at 'As You Like It' was prefect. Shane made the arrival very easy and the accommodation was lovely. It was wonderful to hear the surf at night!
