โ€จWe had a wonderful stay and couldnโ€™t have asked for a better place for the weekend. The house was absolutely beautiful, perfectly presented, and had everything we needed. The pool was a real highlight and made our stay extra relaxing. The space was comfortable, clean, and felt like a true home away from home. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable getaway.

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!

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!

Great location and great family house

House was perfect for what we needed and close to walking trails and the beach. The only negative was the initial damp smell in the property as we came in but once we opened up windows and external doors it very quickly improved

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 :).

Great Property and Location

My family had a great time at this property. It had the space we need with 4 kids and the provided amenities are great. We really made use of the deck for meals and relaxing and the kids had a blast in the pool. Great location, short drive to beaches and national park. Heather was wonderful to deal with. We will definitely stay again.

Awesome damily getaway

Great property in a beautiful location. Comfy beds and lots of room for eveyone. We loved sitting on the deck in the afternoon. Lots of shady trees make for great sleep-ins. Many home comforts included, the host has thought of everything for people and the pooches. We were made to feel very welcome. Thank you!

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.

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 itโ€™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.

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.

STOP OVER

ARACALM is a charming cottage which is very clean and Heather is a wonderful host. Unfortunately due to the weather we were not able to use the pool or patio however our Sheltie certainly enjoyed exploring the large fenced yard. However we can't recommend this house for people with mobility problems due to the internal stairs.

Beach house in a bush setting

This was a last minute booking for us as our camping plans were affected by rain. Heather was accomodating and didn't seem affected by our late reservation. The house was very clean which I was surprised by considering this is a dog friendly property. It was great to see a well stocked corner of dog bowls and toys even though we didn't have our dog with us. We also had a look at the selection of games as our plans for beach swimming wasn't meant to be but we absolutely love trial bay beach for our kids as it's so calm. Great location and we had a nice time.
