Waterfront vacation rentals in Encounter Bay

Truly fab place to stay, probably my favourite beachside Airbnb in this areaso far. The location is perfect: right on the esplanade with amazing sea views, which surprisingly isn’t that easy to find along this strip as the higher yu go, the more the cliffs and brush get in the way. It’s just serene watching the waves roll in, whatever the weather. This Airbnb is so beautifully cared for. It’s not precious, which makes a seaside jaunt much more relaxing. Tracy has literally thought of everything. You turn around and, yep, there’s a charger port when you need it, every appliance you could want – the kitchen is really well equipped. I loved the upside-down living; it was such a pleasure to be upstairs with comfy couches and a great new TV setup. Also, super retro touch: literally every DVD you can think of. Two coffee machines (yes, two!), and a great café right next door. Deep Blue is open on all public holidays, which is ace. Supermarket nearby also open on public holidays!

Denise's place was perfectly located and easy walking distance for what we wanted to do in Victor Harbor (Granite Island and the Cockle Train). In addition, the view from the living space and main bedroom to both Granite Island and the Bluff were superb. It's a neat, tidy space, plenty of room for our family of 4. Had everything we needed for a couple of nights getaway. Thanks Denise

Great place. Fantastic views of the ocean. Very peaceful. Lovely holiday.

Immaculately presented apartment, super easy to access with clear instructions from the host. Literal steps from the beach and cafes etc. Comfortable beds, beautiful linens , easy space to live in - options to stay in or go out. 10mins to great wine region if beach weather doesn’t co operate. Great communication from host, and comprehensive home manual with local coffee tips!

A great apartment with everything you need. Can walk to the beach and food outlets. Great view and lovely sitting on the front deck watching the sunset. Monica was very helpful and kind. If we lived in SA we would visit much more often!

We absolutely loved our week at Anastasia’s place. The apartment was clean, the view was spectacular and it was simply peaceful and relaxing. For a family of 2 adults and 2 children the accomodation and amenities was perfect. We will most definitely be back for our next beach vacation. Leah

It's not often that your expectations are Exceeded. This property represents great value and was first-class in all aspects. We were well informed and communicated with regularly. I added 2 additional days, which were easily accommodated. We will be staying here again. Jessica and Aron were great hosts and we thank them for sharing their wonderful apartment. Sometimes, when you arrive the photos tend to be more generous than reality! Not here! The moment I walked in and saw the space and that million $$ view, WoW. You will not be disappointed.Both front bedrooms have the beach view too.

Lovely apartment on the esplanade, overlooking Encounter Bay. Just perfect. Exactly as described and as reflected in the images. Everything is fresh and contemporary. Beautiful bath and a separate walk-in shower with plenty of hot water and loads of pressure. Front bedroom and living space lead out onto an expansive balcony with seating, a table and BBQ. The apartment is sitting up high but with no stairs. Enter straight in from the back. Plenty of parking for the car. The kitchen has everything including a full sized fridge and dishwasher. We've stayed at Fiona's apartment previously and have been keen to head back. Says it all. Just enjoy the ambiance.

Beautiful nicely laid out clean cottage for a weekend getaway or for a longer stay overlooking lake Alexandrina. Included breakfast was superb. Russel was a very responsive host. The cottage was well setup with all amenities. Plenty of bird life and heritage around location. Thank you Russel for the great stay.

Amazing location with beautiful views of the peninsula. Easy to get to the shops and beautiful beaches. Great space. Definitely would stay again

Thanks Elle, we had a great stay. The property is exactly as described, very comfortable and thoughtfully styled. The location is fantastic and the views amazing. Highly recommend.

Peaceful and quite location in front of Myponga reservoir. House is very modern and has all the things you need for a holiday, many entertainment options. Only downside was not having heating in all the rooms. Living room heater heats up living room well but 2 rooms were not heated well with that and other 2 were not heated at all so we had to use portable heaters which is bit inconvenient to use with a 18month old.

This was our third wonderful stay at Ochre Point Beach House. Jess and Tyson were incredibly responsive and thoughtful throughout our visit. The house was perfectly equipped with absolutely everything we could possibly need—they truly thought of every detail. The views were absolutely breathtaking. We also really appreciated the little extras, it all made us feel so welcome and at home. It’s clear that Jess and Tyson genuinely care about their guests’ comfort, and it made all the difference. Highly recommend this place if you're looking for a relaxing, well-thought-out stay!

Would book again in a heartbeat! We had a wonderful week away with the family. Plenty of room for everyone and the kids utilised the play area downstairs. The view from the balcony was absolutely beautiful and we loved being able to pop across the road to the beach for a walk or enjoy an incredible sunset. Gretchen was always responsive to messages and lovely to deal with, thank you.

We felt right at home straight away, lovely set-up with everything that you need to have a home away from home. enjoyed relaxing in the bath and the electronic bed - fantastic. the outdoor area was relaxing, enjoyed reading a book. Great location in Goolwa, walkable to main street. Has Hays St Bar & Kitchen very close and worth going to have a meal. Also, recommend the Thí restaurant in the main street. Looking forward to staying here again soon.

Absolutely stunning spot, so much open space and a beautiful view, so grateful to be able to stay here & will be coming back!
