Throughly enjoyed staying at Aracalm! Lovely home with everything we needed. The pool was perfect, and the deck was great for our family barbecues. Heather was very welcoming, helpful and communicative, a wonderful host. The Arakoon and south west rocks areas are absolutely stunning, Trial Bay beach was gorgeous, untouched and just wonderful. Some lovely restaurants around south west rocks too. Would definitely stay at Aracalm again! Five stars

We had a very relaxing holiday staying at Aracalm House. Heather was a great host. The house had everything we needed plus more! Most evenings we sat on the decking overlooking the beautiful pool and garden with a bbq and board games. The dog had a great time exploring the garden. The area is peaceful, close to the beach and not far into town either walking along the beach or a short drive. I would definitely come back to Aracalm!

Fantastic pet friendly stay!

My family really enjoyed staying here. Very pet friendly, with a big secure yard for them to play in, and close to a dog beach. We enjoyed exploring all around town, as well as the beaches and national park. Heather was always quick to respond to any messages and the house was a great place to unwind at the end of the day. We'd love to stay again in the future!

Great family home in a quiet location

Very comfortable house in a great location and love that it is pet friendly! Did some great scuba diving with SWR Dive Centre. Heather is a fantastic host, is a great communicator and was so accommodating when we needed to change our booking dates due to cyclone Alfred. Highly recommended :).

Set Amongst the Gum Trees

Heather's house was spacious for all the family including our Dachshund who enjoyed exploring the big back yard set amongst the trees. The pool and back deck with the great BBQ is where we spent most of our time if we weren't at the beach. The house had everything you needed, the bonus was if you didn't want air-conditioning there was ceiling fans in all the rooms. Just a short drive to the shops. Recommend bare foot bowls at the Country Club. Thank you, we enjoyed our stay escaping the hustle and bustle.

Great location

Big property and great location.We stayed for 4 nights recently and although we had some cleanliness issues (not the hosts fault!) Heather was wonderful and thoughtful and attended to these problems instantly.The pool was great for the kids. They were in it everyday. The location to Trial Bay Beach was excellent and the beach is incredible.Heaps of bush walks to do as it’s so close to the national park.7km to the Lighthouse and more beaches there if you want to bush walk down to them.We had a wonderful stay and the hosts were tremendous.

Great pet friendly house

The house is perfect for family and friends to relax in like its your own home. Even better that it is pet friendly. It has a big back deck with ceiling fan and excellent bbq over looking the pool, yard & neighbors yards. All filled with beautiful big trees. Beds were comfy. Pool was lovely and clean and lawn freshly mowed. Pool steps are very very slippy so be careful getting in and out. The yard is a good size for kids and pets to play in. The only negative was the house had a damp/moldy smell on arrival but was ok once opened up. Its in a good location, very quiet area except for a bit of road noise and with lots of trees & birds, close to beaches, easy walk to SWR & Gaol. Heather is a great host 10 out of 10 and gave us and early check in and late checkout which is always appreciated.

Fabulous house and location

From the moment we arrived with the nice touch of champagne and a personalised card to the cleanliness of the house and yard was spot on. House was large and spacious, with some nice touches throughout the house. Dogs loved the large yard and kids never got out of the swimming pool. Overall great location and residence made for a grrat relaxing week and would recommend this property to anyone.
