Killcare Beach is patrolled over the summer months with a kiosk and restaurant at the Surf Club. The southern end has the added bonus of a natural rock pool ideal for the little ones. Putty Beach at the northern end of the beach is ideal for snorkelling, fishing or swimming as it is protected from the swell. The village precinct of Hardys Bay is a short walk away and has everything you need from a general store and bottle shop, art gallery and boutique shopping to cafes with freshly baked breads and pastries. There are some great restaurants for an evening out. Further around towards Wagstaffe you can catch a ferry to Palm Beach or hire out the tennis courts.

Beautiful property in a great location. Fantastic views and ocean breeze and short walk to beach. As a group of 7 old friends we had a lovely time. House was also well stocked.

Awesome house awesome location awesome views
What a house. Perfect for a family beach vacation. Have been coming to Kilcare since the 70’s. One of the best houses I have stayed in. Great balcony Great kitchen though stove is a little complicated but there is a espresso machine Lots of beds and bedrooms Would definitely rent it again.

Lovely relaxed beach house with amazing views
We had a great time at Atlas Beach House. Fantastic open living, dining kitchen area with amazing views. Well stocked pantry. Plenty of room for our extended family gathering. Comfy beds (firm), downstairs shower was very tiny but there are 3 bathrooms so not a big issue. Lovely relaxed beach feel and only a few minutes walk to the beach and not far to Hardy’s Bay. We all loved the spa. There are lots of stairs but that’s to be expected for the location. Thanks Anna, we’d happily return here :)

Hope to return to this beautiful property next year
We loved our stay here! It is a gorgeous property in a beautiful location overlooking the water. Views are STUNNING! Plenty of beds/bedrooms/lounge areas for large groups/families. The things we were particularly impressed with: - Kitchen was so well equipped (even lemon graters!) and well stocked (tea bags, spices, etc.) - The instructions for everything were clear and easy to follow. We referred to them often. - Overhead projector and screen for watching movies, and easy access to streaming services (thanks to instructions) - The Echo-like speaker (not sure of make/model, but it was wonderful) - Proximity to the beach - Spa was perfect size and care was easy - The front window fully opens to incredible views and captures ocean breezes Some of the beds were a little bit hard, which suited some guests, but others would have liked pillow toppers. :-) Normally we rotate from beach stay one year to countryside the next. But we all loved this property so much, we want to book it again for next year!

Weekend getaway
Fantastic property to stay at with a group of people. Tonnes of space with 2 living areas and TV's, 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. Loved the fireplace and open kitchen area. If you're not used to induction cooktops it takes a little extra time to work it out. Plenty of instructions to help with using everything. Lovely and clean. Spa was amazing. Would definitely love to return. Only suggestion would be to install light sensors for the outside stairs at night.

Perfect family holiday
It's was a perfect home and a place to share memories. The house was beautiful and stunning view. The house has everything you need little things like a projector for a family movie night, board games, few minutes to the beach and national park. I do highly recommend if you stay here head to putty beach it's a hidden gem wish we stayed longer 4 days wasn't enough. We'll be back

We had a girls weekend away here and it was BEYOND AMAZING! So much space and amazing views, starting our day with a swim at the beach and walking to the cafes to get coffees, afternoon drinks on the deck and some spa time. Fantastic, would definitely recommend

Disliked: Cleanliness
Could do better
Overall the property was pretty ok in terms of facilities and location however, there were a few issues we faced: 1. It seemed like the property hadn't been cleaned in a long time as there were cobwebs everywhere. 2. The property was booked for 12 people for 4 days and there weren't sufficient toilet papers to last for that long and we had to walk to the real estate office to collect toilet papers. 3. The spa was included in the list of online amenities however, the property management was not aware of it 4. No linen provided - for $1k/night, we expected at linen to be included

Great house, amazing location!
Our stay in Killcare was just wonderful! The house is very well appointed and in a quiet spot with absolutely stunning views of the ocean and surrounding bush. The beach is a short walk away and the village a short drive. We'll definitely be back for another stay!

Photos don’t do it justice
The property was far better than the photos showed. There were extra rooms and amenities that weren’t mentioned and we were presently surprised. There were a lot of spider webs around the property but that can’t be avoided and we enjoyed our stay a lot. There did seem to be some balloons and decorations left by the previous occupants but we didn’t mind that too much. Thanks so much for an amazing stay

Amazing house, great location!
Loved our stay at Atlas Beachhouse! Great amenities & location! Lovely open plan kitchen/living/dining area with amazing sea views! Only downside was the weather during our stay..torrential rain all weekend! A few leaks which generally wouldn’t be an issue but the intense weather forced its way in. Otherwise couldn’t fault it!
