Our standard check-in time is 3 pm and check-out time is 10 am. We offer a complimentary early check-in or late check-out time as a gesture of goodwill where booking and housekeeping schedules allow. Note that due to demand and housekeeping pressures, no early check-ins or late check-outs will be granted during the months of December and January.

Direct bookings require the booker to upload a copy of their driver’s licence and credit card through our encrypted online process.

EV Charging: For safety reasons and to comply with insurance requirements, guests are prohibited from charging electric vehicles at any property that does not have a dedicated EV charging station.

Lovely location
The house is nice and sitting on good location, close to Tilbury Cove which is nice and calm water, good for swimming.
However, some teething problems likes no salt in the house, lightning in the laundry is not working, air conditioning in the upstair lounge is not working, toilet door in ensuite room downstairs is not closed at all

Lovely large house with excellent sea views
Had a great time over Easter. Plenty of room for family and friends. Our only negative was the beds were quite small and our adult children found the singles very uncomfortable.

Great family holiday house
Fantastic weekend. The Albatross House is the most amazing place to stay. Very clean, spacious, comfortable with clearly the best ocean views in Culburra. Well priced for a luxurious home. Has become our favourite - 10 stars and highly recommended.

Expensive, but ultimately worth it.
Stayed here recently, place is huge with a few different living spaces and a very short stroll to the beach. It was more expensive than we'd have liked, but that's what we get for booking late and during school holidays. I'd stay here again.
