Family-friendly vacation rentals in Shoalhaven Heads

A very comfortable house for a family group in great location in Kiama Downs, walking distance to the shops and beach. Very nice amenities including the spa and a big terrace. Good yard for the dogs too.

The property was beautiful and easy to find with Nadja’s directions. The views from the bathroom were amazing and my wife and I were able to relax in the spa whilst looking at the landscape. The kitchen was well equipped, the place was tidy, the hosts were very nice and we would 100% stay again!

From the moment we arrived every detail about guest experience has been thought of. There are so many little, thoughtful details that truly make you feel so welcomed. My highlights were; meeting Greg who was putting the horses to bed and happy for us to wander up and have a chat and meet the animals. The two dogs Chum and Bundy were really friendly and up for a pat. Plus, the duck pond with the viewing platform and seat. So cute! The firepit had all the wood and was ready to go which I really regret not making the most of this. The personalised card, treats and breakfast was really sweet, and they provided tips on making the most of the claw foot bath tub. It's hard to find an AirBNB that still cares so much about guest experience. I thoroughly enjoyed sitting on the balcony watching the horses and alpacas in the paddock, and waking up in the morning with the view of the horses frolicking around. It's was an unreal experience that allowed us to unwind from our busy lives

Great stay with an amazing location. Highly recommend! Thanks so much for an easy and great stay!

Allyson's place is a perfect getaway! Some highlights for me were Allyson's responsiveness, the space is pet friendly, how close it is to the beach, and the bathtub! I had a bath every night. It was so relaxing and wonderful. I highly recommend it and plan on coming back again!

We had a great couple of days at Will's place. The dog absolutely loved the huge garden, and it's an easy walk to the dog friendly pub in town! Well worth the walk up to the seats on the hill at the back of the property for the magnificent view. The house is pretty dated but I think this is better when you have a dog (or kids). There is only one shower, but there are two separate toilets. Beds were very comfortable and we slept well. Thanks Will - we will be back!

A wonderful place in the country for a short break with the dogs for my daughter and her husband. I booked at very last minute due to the flooding in the mid north coast and Ellen and Tim were so responsive and accommodating accepting our booking so late and making it happen. They had been before and the experience was just as perfect - and super understanding of the dogs muddy feet due to all the rain. Thank you so much - we will be back again for longer next time.

Our farm stay was perfect from start to finish! The cottage was exactly as pictured—clean, stylish, and cozy with a modern farmhouse-coastal vibe. Check-in was easy, and parking was plentiful. Our host was friendly and responsive, even arranging a fun feeding the farm animals—which our daughter loved. That evening, we relaxed in the pre-heated hot tub watching the sunset over the mountains, enjoying a surprise bottle of wine left for us—especially appreciated since it was Good Friday and shops were closed. We slept well, and all the amenities were high quality. The next morning, fresh-baked bread on the deck was so thoughtful. Though peaceful and secluded, the property was just minutes from town and Kiama. We also visited Jervis Bay and Jamberoo Action Park. An unforgettable Easter getaway—everything exceeded our expectations. We can’t wait to return!

What a magical house in the most perfect location! The beds are super comfy with lovely linen. The house is quiet and has everything you need. The view from the deck is next level. We loved our stay and Holly was a lovely host!

Absolute 10/10 stay! Everything was perfect from the tiny details (robes, slippers, tea, milk, olive oil) to the things on offer (board games, yoga mats and snorkles). The house was beautifully designed and super clean, with absolutely everything we could have needed and more. We had such a good time, we ended up extending our stay for an extra night! Will be recommending to all friends and family. Would definitely stay here again! Thanks so much to Rob and Bede for the excellent staycation.

Fran's place is perfect for a quiet getaway. The cabin is well equipped and has everything you could need. Our dog enjoyed roaming around the paddocks and the space is very pet friendly. The cabin is very tranquil but still only a short drive from all the amenities you need. Fran is also an amazing host and was a pleasure to deal with. We will definitely be back!

Marie was a lovely host and the house is beautiful, nestled in the bush above the beach within a 2min walk! I would recommend anyone to stay at Marie’s

We had a lovely stay at Kylie’s place—it was very relaxing. The walk to the beach was nice and easy, and the local beach was perfect for our senior dog. We even had some wildlife visitors in the backyard, including beautiful birds and either wallabies or kangaroos, which was such a treat! Although it rained for almost our entire stay, we were more than happy to cozy up inside and play games by the fire.

Fantastic place not far from Sydney ! Great communication and lovely very helpful answered every question promptly! Met every one of our special needs.

We love the peaceful surroundings and the green rolling hills at this wonderful cottage- it's our 3rd year in a row and we look forward to next year already :)

We stayed here for a week over the public holiday and were hugely grateful for Dom and Fred’s hospitality. They were warm and friendly hosts with a number of good local recommendations for activities or sights to see. My partner and I stayed with our dog and it was the perfect base to explore Huskisson and the surrounding coast. The accomodation was small but cosy and just what we needed for our getaway.

I highly recommend this property as it was stunning. My husband and I went away for two nights for a wedding and from the moment we walked into the door we felt so calm and both in awe at how beautiful the property was. So much thought has gone into this beautiful home and I think it’s one of our favourite spots we have stayed to date. The outside bath was our favourite along with the fireplace to help us relax. The host was great and check in was super easy. We could not fault one thing and we cannot to book again for a weekend reset. The perfect location for anyone wanting to slow down. We stayed as a couple but this place would be amazing to go with two other couples, a family or friends! Location was also great and walking distance into town.

Hosts were lovely & open to answer questions! Space is small, but cozy & had everything we needed! The playful dog greets you in the garden & makes your day a little better :)

Friendly host offering honest and clear communication. Location was superb with ready access to the beach and surrounds. Would definitely recommend.

Wonderful little cabin attached to a main house, but with private entrance. Exactly what you need for a peaceful break, inc. wallabies multiple times in the garden! Peaceful, quiet and a very responsive host. Would absolutely return.

Incredible location with an amazing 180 degree view of the ocean that makes this property really unique. The home is a short drive to most places that you’d want to visit in the area, and there are bush walking trails near by also. If you are after a special location with an ocean panorama as your backdrop, then this home will not disappoint.

We loved our stay! Airbnb was much better than it appears in the photos, bed was very comfortable and such a tranquil location. We loved chatting with Donna and meeting the horses on the property. Couldn’t have asked for a better Airbnb for a weekend getaway from Sydney!

My friends and I were completely happy with the property and our Host Eva. It was exactly what was described and Eva was so lovely by giving us a proactive call to give us tips for our amazing stay.

Justin was an amazing communicator. He answered all my question s smaller amount of time and was wonderful in relaying places we should see.
