About this property

Sea By Your Side - Perfect Esplanade Living

Step out of your front door, look to your side - and there it is.. The beach, just a few steps away!!

Situated on the Glenelg North Esplanade, this recently refurbished cottage is perfect for short or long term holidays.

If you encounter trouble booking this property, please see our other properties, "Sleep By The Sea" and "Sea At Your Doorstep", whic hare in the same location and offer similar benefits and attributes.

Don’t be surprised if you spot a dolphin just a few metres away from your holiday accommodation. Your perfect view of the sunset will be simply stunning at any time of the year.

Your stay here can offer you the priceless enjoyment of the constant sound of the sea and fresh air, yet ensure that you are within easy reach of all that the City of Adelaide has to offer. The City, Festival Theatre, Casino and Convention Center are all a short 15 minute drive, or an easy 30 minute trip with the Glenelg Tram. Please be mindful that the airport is nearby - 7 km away - so you will see and hear planes coming in. Some people love this, others not so much.

The cottage is a quick beachfront walk to the sophisticated Holdfast Shores Marina and its award winning restaurants. Another few minutes and you are on historic Jetty Road, where the eating, shopping and entertainment facilities are endless. Just Google “Glenelg Beach” to see all that this destination has to offer, including a myriad of sport and beach activities. Your stay may not require a single car trip, as local attractions such as the “Temptation” swim with the dolphins, the BeachHouse amusement park & the brand new $1.3m foreshore playground are all within walking distance.


The place combines a clean, crisp, modern feel with the coziness of an old cottage. The place has been fitted so that you can have a comfortable short or long term stay. It offers a fully equipped kitchen, your own laundry facilities, TV and DVD entertainment, linen and towelling – just pack your toothbrush and bathers!!.

The kitchen will easily cater to those who want affordable home cooked meals; that is, if they can resist the temptation to just walk into one of the cafes or restaurants down the road.

When you first get there, enjoy a coffee on us - just pop a coffee capsule in the machine.

Beds

The property has a queen bed in the master bedroom.
A double and single bed in the second bedroom.
Both bedrooms fitted with chirorest mattresses to ensure a comfortable holiday stay.
The living area contains a couch, which can be converted into a double mattress for sleeping an extra 2 if required.

Please note that although this apartment can sleep up to 7, it is really most comfortable for 5 or less.

Friends Catch Up
Travelling back from WA, stayed in Adelaide to catch up with friends, what a fabulous place to stay. Only slight negative was it’s under the flight path, but we soon got used to that and the close proximity to the beach made up for it.

Glenelg 08 Jan - 05 Feb 2023
Lovely property with excellent access to the beaches at Glenelg. Ideal for 2 retired adults and a retired friend who stayed for 1 week. Was also able to accommodate 2 infants on occasional sleep overs ( grandparent duties ). Will be coming back again in 2 or 3 years if Sofie will have us.

We are a family of 5, and the property was perfect for us. It also had fantastic extras like cereals, drinks, and snacks included, and plenty of towels and toiletries. Very convenient for the beach and walking into the town. Loved it.

Gorgeous spot in Glenelg North !
This property was beautifully presented & the goodies & welcome letter on arrival made us feel special. Sofie goes above and beyond to make you feel at home . The location was great & we thoroughly enjoyed being so close to such a nice quiet beach but within walking distance of Glenelg shops & restaurants. Thanks Sofie for a wonderful stay!

Great location
Great location for a stay close to the beach but if you think you are getting an ocean view as the photos show you will be disappointed. The place is well decorated and very clean but we booked thinking we would have an ocean view but that wasn't the case. Misleading advertising I'm afraid, we were looking for an ocean view and would not have booked this place if we new differently.

Loved it there!!
Thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Would definitely book there again on a return trip to Glenelg. Loved it. The apartment was a home away from home, and very comfortable. The colourful prints, and decor looked great. It was in a perfect location, very close to the beach and quiet. About a 15-20 minute walk to the cafes, shops and beach. The host Sofie, was very attentive, and ensured all was well. I highly recommend this apartment.
