Rest - Pet Friendly with Outdoor Bath - 3 Mins Walk to Beach
2024 Award Winner - Highest Performing - 2 Bedroom.
In need of a relaxing break? Looking for a quiet haven to unwind and rejuvenate? Let Rest be your personal oasis, providing a peaceful and secluded getaway for up to four people just a 3-minute walk from the beach.
This beautiful, pet-friendly home will ensure your every comfort is met. In the cooler months you’ll want to gather in the inviting living space around the fireplace and play boardgames or read a book, while in the summer months, you’ll appreciate the air conditioning, ceiling fans, and outdoor dining area.
The fully-equipped kitchen will make your days a breeze, as you ease into the morning with a Nespresso then meander outside for a BBQ on the patio before spending the evening cosied up around the luxury outdoor firepit, in one of the comfortable and iconic Adirondack chairs.
But it is the private and peaceful garden and resort-style outdoor ensuite that will make your stay something truly special. An outdoor bath carved from stone is set in its own small tropical oasis, alongside an open-air rainfall shower, allowing you to bathe under the clear blue skies or the twinkling stars. Discover the perfect antidote to busy city life as you soak your cares away.
Of course, you’ll also want to get out and explore the long sandy beaches and sparkling waters of Ettalong Beach and head to the Mt Ettalong lookout to take in the spectacular views of Umina, Ettalong, Broken Bay, and Palm Beach.
And when you’ve had your fill of sand and sun, retire to Rest to make the most of Umina Beach’s laid-back lifestyle and enjoy making memories that will last forever.

Fantastic little house, very comfortable stay.
The house has been expertly renovated and is a great place to stay for exploring the Central Coast. We found it quite difficult to find initially as it is located behind another house, and Umina itself is not at all "touristy", but once we got over those two issues we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house is close to being brand new and is very comfy. The bed and sofa, two things we think are hugely important, were extremely comfortable, and the aircon was very welcome. The front and back gardens were very impressive, nicely manicured and completely dog-secure. all in all a very nice place to stay.

Dog’s Beach Break
The property was just what I wanted for our short break with my 14 yr old grandson holidaying from Hong Kong, my lovely dog Liza & myself. Rest was just as it was represented & Liza was in 7th heaven with the dog beach.
The outdoor “rooms were all perfect & we loved coming back from the beach & relaxing with a coffee/hot chocolate/doggie treat in one of the comfy outdoor areas. The kitchen was best equipped I have ever had in rental property. Overall 5 star experience. Will be back 👍

Nice and clean little place.
We enjoyed the stay very much. Very comfy lounge room, good quality kitchen, great bed and outdoor living area. Although near busy road it was very quiet. Lovely coffee shop two minutes walking distance. If the weather would have been great, we would have also had the use of the fantastic outdoor bathroom. The only thing we struggled with was the small internal bathroom, but this would not stop us from going back again.

Short break
Accommodation was exactly shown on site. 4 min walk to beach, quite location. Outdoor space would be very enjoyable in good weather. House has everything you would need and the appliances are high quality items. Not a large house (2 bedrooms) but the living space is quite ample.
Had a problem with using the tv remote which I found very annoying. If you are not familiar with a Samsung remote it may take you a while to work out how to adjust the sound and channel buttons. You need to push the buttons up or down to adjust.
Would certainly be happy to have a return visit sometime.
