Neighborhood Overview: Untouched beaches, the Royal National Park, cultural and historical walks, a thriving art scene, aboriginal rock carvings, kayac and paddleboard hire, cafes, local musical events, are just a handful of the many attractions Bundeena has to offer. We have a well stocked supermarket that is open from 8am to 8pm. Bundeena also has: chemist, newsagent, petrol station, resident doctor, ambulance station, fire station. We are lucky to have a selection of cafes for those times you just want to kick back and look at the view and recently a newly opened restaurant. We have a local bowling club that also has a restaurant. The name Bundeena is an aboriginal word meaning “noise like thunder” and when you hear the waves lap up against the white sand its easy to understand why. On Bundeena's southern edge, footsteps of the people who walked before us echo across the land. On the beach and in the bush, there’s hidden evidence of a life well-lived… you simply need to know where to look. Only nine ge
Notes: Please be aware that for the safety of everyone, glass in the pool area is not permitted. There are parasols in the pool area for you to use but be aware that they need to be put down at the end of the night or if the weather turns windy.

We also have a chemist but be aware that he closes midday on Saturday. Bundeena has 3 restaurants, a newsagent, 3 cafes, a petrol station, car repair shop and a gift
Transit: Once in Bundeena, you really don't need a car but if you plan on taking day trips to other National Park areas, you will need to buy a pass. Day passes are available from the local newsagent or petrol station, or if you are going to an area that has a ticket machine, you can buy a day ticket there. Day tickets cost $12. A delightful 20 minute ferry ride to Cronulla will give you a great view of the surrounding area and is a lovely start to a trip to Cronulla (or take the train to Sydney for the day). Ferry timetable can be found by a search for Cronulla Ferries. To get here, the car journey is approx 25 mins from the Pacific Highway turn off at Sutherland/Loftus. The other option is to take a train to Cronulla station, walk the 10 minutes to Cronulla Ferry jetty and take the passenger ferry to Bundeena. The ferry journey takes approx 20 minutes and leaves Cronulla on the half hour, leaving Bundeena on the hour. For full timetable, check with Cronulla Ferries on their website.

Reviewer: Jane
Comments: For a girls weekend away we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Hilde was very welcoming and obviously takes a lot of pride in providing a place that is comfortable, inviting and clean. She has great attention to detail, the house had everything we needed, good aircon for the summer and a well set up kitchen which made cooking a BBQ easy. Hilde provided us with a lovely breakfast with delicious home made bread, jams, muesli and tea and coffee. The house is in a great location within easy walking distance from the beach and shops. Thanks very much for having us Hilde!

Reviewer: Tricia

Reviewer: Yukio
Comments: This place was amazing! Not only was Hilde one of the best Airbnb hosts we have encountered (attentive, informative, helpful and reachable, when we needed her), the place was fantastically prepared. We stayed in the apartment with our 1-year-old and immediately after our arrival it became apparent that a lot of love and a well-developed attention to detail went into making this place as comfortable as possible. The beds were great, the pool was immaculately maintained (no chlorine = great for kids), the kitchen was well-outfitted with all the essentials and the bathroom stocked with towels. Hilde even went to the trouble of providing our daughter with some toys, which came in very handy. All in all, Hilde's "Bundeena Base" was a great launchpad for us to have some family downtime outside of Sydney. A real gem of a region, which is quite reachable by train/ferry as well as car from the city.

Comments: This is a beautiful comfortable home, within easy walking distance of a gorgeous beach, the famous aboriginal carvings, ferry to Cronulla, shops and cafes. Definitely recommend for a relaxing stay, in the National Park, well away from Sydney hustle and bustle.

Reviewer: Anke
Comments: A really lovely apartment. The host has included all necessities and luxuries such as fresh warm bread, ground coffee and champagne. All rooms were well equipted and 2 bedrooms have view over water. It is a short walk into Bundeena and I would love to go back for a longer stay.

Reviewer: Aletta
Comments: Bundeena base is a very special place, with it's pool and easy access to three different beaches. Hilde is clearly experienced from the hotel industry, and a very professional host, with an eye for detail, like the bathrobes and the welcome package. We felt so at home in this clean and impeccable apartment, we thought we might never want to leave.

Reviewer: Craig
Comments: Hilde's place is lovely and she has provided the personal touch. She is quick to respond to any needs and goes out of her way to make your stay as easy as possible. Her accommodation is clean, warm and inviting. She really has furnished the place with style and thoughtfulness. We loved our stay!

Reviewer: Eva
Comments: The hosts went above and beyond our expectations in every respect. The place is immaculate and beautifully furnished, the location is perfect. Very close to shops, beaches, the national park etc. and with a nice view. I loved listening to the sound of the waves at night. The swimming pool was a hit with my kids, especially the cupboard full of toys they could play with in the water. We were provided bathrobes, towels, extra towels for the swimming pool - felt really spoilt. We were a party of 2 adults and 2 children, but the place could conveniently accommodate 6 people. Hilde baked bread for us: what a welcome. We could bring a dog, and were provided with both practical advice and everything our doggie may need. We had a wonderful stay, my children did not want to go home! Thank you Hilde and hubby for your hospitality.

Reviewer: Leanne
Comments: Bundeena Base was perfect for our family of 5 for a long weekend getaway. The wifi and Foxtel were hits with the kids, the pool was perfect after a walk or time at the beach, the air con on muggy summer nights was great too. Everything Bundeena has to offer us an easy stroll away. We highly recommend Hilde and Bundeena Base and hope to be back in the future!

Reviewer: Jason
Comments: Hilde is a fantastic host. She was very accommodating of our schedule and made sure we understood how to use everything. She also had a few nice surprises for us (I’ll keep them secret for the next people, but they were very tasty). The place is clean and spacious and perfect for a quiet getaway. Highly recommend this place to anyone.

Reviewer: Maddy
Comments: Bundeena Base was the perfect place for a low key long weekend. We all especially enjoyed the kitchen, bbq, pool and fluffy robes. The house is close to the shops, multiple beaches and the national park so we always had something explore. Hilde went above and beyond our expectations, meeting us at the ferry to help with luggage and providing not only a portacot with bedding but also a change table, baby bath, bouncer and play mat. Our 3 month old baby had the best time. We hope to make it back there someday!
-
Reviewer: Narelle
Comments: I loved our stay at Hilde's place. Ocean views, and bush meets the sea. The kids loved the pool and would have been perfectly happy staying put the whole time just to swim.
-
Reviewer: Ricarda
Comments: Highly recommended 11/10. Great location, comfortable and clean property with gracious hosts. One of our many highlights would be enjoying the spectacular sunsets overlooking the pool and bay while bbq’ing fresh fish and enjoying a glass of wine while our kids played in the garden. We hope to return soon!

Reviewer: Kelly Curtis
Comments: Although getting there is a task for a large family it is well worth the travel time. Great home with everything you would need.

Reviewer: Michael
Comments: We had a wonderful time at Bundeena Base. Hilde was a great host whose communication was excellent (fast and helpful). She went well beyond the minimum as a host and made us feel very welcome. The house itself is great. The beds were very comfortable, with a choice of types of pillows. We much appreciated the fluffy towels and bathrobes. We had everything we needed for a self-catering family of four. Apart from that, the location in the Royal National Park was ideal for us. We took several walks along the Coastal Trail which was absolutely stunning. The only disadvantage was the 30 minute drive to get anywhere outside the National Park but for us that was a price well worth paying for the quiet beaches in walking distance of Bundeena Base.
-
Reviewer: Kirsty
Comments: Bundeena Base is lovely, well located and well fitted out with everything you need. The view is beautiful and just a short walk to the beaches, bush walks and shops. Highly recommended.
-
Reviewer: Bart
Comments: We enjoyed our stay as 2 couples with children, and Bundeena is a beautiful place to spend a weekend. Hilde's place is downstairs from their residence which is great in case you need anything, but is private, and the back garden and pool are yours. Our children loved picking oranges and playing in the grass.

Reviewer: Chris
Comments: We had a long weekend at Bundeena and thoroughly enjoyed it. Hilde went out of her way to make sure that we had everything we needed both for the 6 adults and a young baby. Very comfortable, well designed and only a short walk to the beach, shops and club. Swimming pool was a great 30 degrees in spite of the unseasonably cold weather. All in all would recommend it and would love to return.
