This place is a magical gem right in the midst of wilderness. Our entire stay was very smooth and the credit goes to Mareta and her amazing staff who genuinely go out of the way to make your stay memorable. The degustation dinner designed by Steve Manfredi was top notch with the chef ensuring after every course that we were... More

A Perfect place to relax. The location is amazing, the staff is wonderful and the food is succulent. No request goes unanswered.

On Sydney's doorstep bordering the Bauddi National Park, Pretty Beach House is one of those rare finds that you have to weigh up wether to tell the world or keep in secret! The location is amazing, nestled high on a escarpment, surrounded by gum trees with filtered view to the waterways below. On arrival you are welcomed to what immediately... More

A spur of the moment decision to spend Christams away from Sydney (and family!) for the first time in years, led us book the Hideway Pavillion at Pretty Beach House for 3 nights over the Christmas break and what a good decision that was! The property is a haven in the most glorious bushland setting. Once you negotiate the very... More

The staff are plentiful and beautifully trained: there when you want them, and unobtrusive when you don't. It is incredibly expensive, but provides complete value.

Having a chef like Stefano Manfredi personally cook a degustation menu for us, the only... More

This is an area of exceptional natural beauty. The facility itself is incredibly beautiful and relaxing. The rooms are cool, modern and soothing. They provide a... More

My wife and I were looking for a luxury weekend break close to Sydney and we found it in Pretty Beach House. An easy 1.5 Hr drive from North Sydney through some great country side all without the many joys of airports and flying! Arrived mid-morning where we were warmly greeted and taken straight to our pavilion (Hideaway – definitely... More

If I won the lottery this is what I would do. I would buy 8 acres of glorious land on a hillside in a national park with vistas of the estuary and surrounding hills. I would then put a main house and 3 beautifully appointed and private rooms with their own pools around the grounds, get them designed in a... More
