“Thalia Haven” is an ancient-stone cottage on the ocean’s edge, set on a private 130-acre wooded peninsula and surrounded by the crystal-blue waters of Great Oyster Bay. 

The Airbnb property is just five kilometres from the coastline. Here, you can enjoy an exclusive golden sand beach and the opportunity to make memories to last a lifetime.

The house itself is made unique by its bold self-reliability. All water, electricity, and warmth are derived from the land, breeze and sunshine. Don’t let its rustic charm fool you-it has all the five-star luxury of the Hilton as well as all the warmth and character of a seaside cottage.

The home features a central living space with a kitchen and dining room as well as smaller, self-contained wings, each with a comfy size bed. The living room also boasts a cracking fireplace, making this the perfect retreat for an airy summer or a cosy winter getaway.

However, the properties’ most interesting feature has to be the stand alone bath that sits brazenly upon the deck. Indulge yourself and relax to the sound of the waves, or, if baths aren’t quite your thing, take a time out in your private sauna.
