The only thing we were disappointed about was that we couldn’t stay longer! We loved our stay in this very comfortable property that had everything we needed and more for our group including our fur baby! Lounging around in the backyard was a delight, the kitchen had everything we needed to have a big BBQ lunch with friends who were staying nearby and the hot outdoor shower was a great surprise after we came back from the beach on cooler autumn evenings. Such a lovely stay and we hope we can visit again one day. Kim was super easy to deal with and we can highly recommend staying at Lucy’s escape!

The house was lovely and clean, bedroom’s spacious and bed very comfortable and bathrooms modern and well designed. Lovely private yard with pretty established gardens. Great location only 100 metres from the beach. Only disappointment was we were hardly there as we were in the area for a wedding so basically only slept there. Would love to go back again and take out little dog and really enjoy this lovely property

This house is the perfect place to relax with family including our furry friends. Walking distance to the beach and shops. The garden was the place to be at the end of the day with the whole family finding a place to relax. The outdoor shower made it easy to keep sand out of the house. The beds were very comfortable ensuring a good nights sleep.

It was a great house with plenty of seating in the dining area & in the lounge. The backyard was fabulous with the hammocks and sun lounges, perfect for an afternoon siesta after a morning at the beach (which is at the end of the road, a minute walk away). A/c was much appreciated in the main living but the ocean breeze was also great. A great place for 4 couples to get away from the rat race & play giant Jenga!

The property was lovely and we couldn’t have asked for more. We stayed with little children and the backyard was a delight for them, and we loved knowing they could play and explore safely. The location was ideal. The street is quiet and the beach only a few minutes away. The host was communicative and generous. Thank you so much for having us!

The property was comfortable, beautifully presented and very clean. It was lovely not feeling like I wanted to take everything out of cluttered cupboards and wash it before use. The kitchen is really well equipped and everything you need is there. The garden is wonderful. All adults, children and doggies enjoyed various aspects of exploring the garden. It is secure even for small dogs. One point to note though is that if you have a little doggy that likes to get into dark places and hide, it is easy for them to get under the shed or deck and potentially get stuck. What can I say about the hosts? Every interaction we had with them was easy, courteous and pleasant. I would not hesitate to recommend guests to stay at any of their properties. Thank you so much for your kindness and consideration throughout our stay. The only minor suggestions for improvement would be water bowls available for dogs and fly screens on all opening windows. Because of the lovely sea breezes it is great to be able to open up at night for coolness but the mozzies are prolific in that part of the world. We had a wonderful time and were sorry to leave.

Culburra Beach was a fantastic place for our short holiday. Easy walk to beach and shops, with plenty of options for eating out/takeaway. The house was very spacious with a fantastic outdoor space, incuding firepits and hammocks. The yard is very secure for dogs, with high fencing and lockable gates. Kim and Chris were very responsive to any questions. Would definitely stay here again.

Better than the photos ! Great four bedrooms and two modern bathrooms. Could do with ceiling fans in all bedrooms as air flow not great but air conditioning in main room a bonus. Lovely pet friendly backyard and clean well equipped kitchen. We cooked Christmas dinner in it and it was perfect. Could do with spare gas stove top lighters

I have been staying in a few places in Culburra beach as we loved the area, service and the beach. Kim's place was the best overall, the garden backyard was absolutely amazing for adults, kids and dogs, the house is clean and beds are super comfortable, the beach is just 3 minutes walk. Loved our stay and would love to vome back again.

We had a great 5 night stay. The house is extremely comfortable and in a convenient location to the dog friendly beach and the shops and cafes. Garden was very secure for our Border Collie with plenty for her to investigate. Kitchen very well equipped and clean and the house was lovely and warm now that the nights are getting chilly.

The house was very spacious with a fantastic outdoor space, incuding firepits and hammocks. The yard is very secure for dogs, with high fencing and lockable gates. Kim and Chris were very responsive to any questions. Would definitely stay here again.

Great location only 100 metres from the beach. Only disappointment was we were hardly there as we were in the area for a wedding so basically only slept there. Would love to go back again and take out little dog and really enjoy this lovely property

We had a great time at "Lucy's Eacape". The property was as good (if not better) as described in the photos. Easy walk to the beach and well placed ameneties at the property. We had a relaxing time.

The property was lovely and we couldn’t have asked for more. We stayed with little children and the backyard was a delight for them, and we loved knowing they could play and explore safely. The location was ideal. The street is quiet and the beach only a few minutes away. The host was communicative and generous. Thank you so much for having us!

Culburra Beach was a fantastic place for our short holiday. Easy walk to beach and shops, with plenty of options for eating out/takeaway. The house was very spacious with a fantastic outdoor space, incuding firepits and hammocks. The yard is very secure for dogs, with high fencing and lockable gates. Kim and Chris were very responsive to any questions. Would definitely stay here again.

Better than the photos ! Great four bedrooms and two modern bathrooms. Could do with ceiling fans in all bedrooms as air flow not great but air conditioning in main room a bonus. Lovely pet friendly backyard and clean well equipped kitchen. We cooked Christmas dinner in it and it was perfect. Could do with spare gas stove top lighters

Lucy's Escape was great! It was clean, well stocked, good selection of games, quality linen, fantastic garden for relaxing, several places to sit together as a group. It is close to beach and shops, quiet neighbourhood, it has interesting artwork and is maintained to a high standard. Booking/checkin process was very smooth and the owner was great to deal with from my first enquiry. We highly recommend this property and we would definitely like to return. Thanks!!!

The property was very well presented and well equipped throughout. We were away for most days and it was lovely to come back to a home away from home. Lovely experience.

We had a great 5 night stay. The house is extremely comfortable and in a convenient location to the dog friendly beach and the shops and cafes. Garden was very secure for our Border Collie with plenty for her to investigate. Kitchen very well equipped and clean and the house was lovely and warm now that the nights are getting chilly.

The only thing we were disappointed about was that we couldn’t stay longer! We loved our stay in this very comfortable property that had everything we needed and more for our group including our fur baby! Lounging around in the backyard was a delight, the kitchen had everything we needed to have a big BBQ lunch with friends who were staying nearby and the hot outdoor shower was a great surprise after we came back from the beach on cooler autumn evenings. Such a lovely stay and we hope we can visit again one day. Kim was super easy to deal with and we can highly recommend staying at Lucy’s escape!

The property was comfortable, beautifully presented and very clean. It was lovely not feeling like I wanted to take everything out of cluttered cupboards and wash it before use. The kitchen is really well equipped and everything you need is there. The garden is wonderful. All adults, children and doggies enjoyed various aspects of exploring the garden. It is secure even for small dogs. One point to note though is that if you have a little doggy that likes to get into dark places and hide, it is easy for them to get under the shed or deck and potentially get stuck. What can I say about the hosts? Every interaction we had with them was easy, courteous and pleasant. I would not hesitate to recommend guests to stay at any of their properties. Thank you so much for your kindness and consideration throughout our stay. The only minor suggestions for improvement would be water bowls available for dogs and fly screens on all opening windows. Because of the lovely sea breezes it is great to be able to open up at night for coolness but the mozzies are prolific in that part of the world. We had a wonderful time and were sorry to leave.

Plus Greenwell Point and the Pelican Cafe.National park close but didn’t venture as we have doggies and they are not allowed for obvious reasons.Great host - very responsive and helpful.

This house was amazing - I stayed with my kids and some friends and we all had a lovely time. So close to the beach as well as an easy walk to the shops/food/coffee options. We definitely plan to return.
