Kuruwa
About the stay
Perched high above the pristine shoreline of Tathra, Kuruwa is a spacious coastal sanctuary offering sweeping ocean panoramas and effortless beachside living for up to 10 guests. Designed for multi-generational families and groups, this multi-deck haven pairs two light-filled living zones with front-row seats to rolling waves, sun-drenched sunrises, and seasonal whale watching. Wake up to the sound of the ocean, unwind in sprawling alfresco spaces, and enjoy the ultimate Sapphire Coast getaway.
The space
Embracing its prime coastal position, Kuruwa is built around seamless indoor-outdoor living and wide open spaces. The upper level opens into an expansive open-plan living and dining hub anchored by a modern, fully equipped chef's kitchen. High ceilings and wall-to-wall glass capture incredible natural light and uninterrupted sea views, flowing out onto a sprawling ocean-facing deck ideal for sunrise coffees or outdoor dining cooled by coastal breezes.
With two distinct living areas across the home, guests can easily find their own quiet sanctuary to read, watch a movie, or simply soak in the coastal landscape. Step down into the private courtyard or covered alfresco area to fire up the barbecue for long summer lunches. Featuring four generous bedrooms, two full bathrooms including a deep soaking tub, and ample off-street parking, every corner of this grand home offers comfort, space, and understated beachside luxury.
