About this property

Coastal Retreat | Pool, Yard, 150m to Beach

  • Summary:

    Step outside and the pool's waiting. Walk two minutes and you're at the beach. Welcome to Cove Beach House.



    Cove Beach House is a brand new, luxury 4-bedroom home on the doorstep of Umina Beach — with a private pool, resort-style outdoor entertaining, and a tranquil nature reserve at the back fence. For families and groups who want more than just a place to sleep, this is it.



    The Space:

    Cove Beach House is a beautifully finished home sleeping up to 8 guests across four bedrooms. Light-filled, spacious, and designed for groups who want to be together — with enough room to spread out when you need it.



    Two full living rooms, a chef's kitchen, a private pool, and an outdoor entertaining area with full kitchen and pizza oven. Whether you're planning long lazy days by the pool or evenings under the cabana with a group dinner, this home is built for exactly that.



    What We Love



    The Pool & Outdoor Entertaining:

    The private pool and resort-style backyard are what guests talk about most. Swim, relax under the cabana, fire up the outdoor kitchen, and enjoy meals outside in a setting that backs directly onto the tranquil nature reserve. This level of outdoor living is genuinely rare in Umina Beach — and it's yours exclusively for your stay.



    The Nature Reserve:

    Backing onto a protected nature reserve, Cove Beach House offers something most beach houses can't — complete privacy, lush green outlook, and the sound of birdsong rather than neighbours. Wake up, open the back door, and feel the difference immediately.



    The Kitchen:

    The chef's kitchen is fully equipped and genuinely functional — the kind of setup that makes cooking for a group of eight something you'll actually enjoy. Everything from quick beach breakfasts to long group dinners is taken care of.



    Living Areas:

    Two separate living rooms make Cove Beach House a natural fit for families and mixed groups. The adults get the main open-plan space; the kids get their own. No compromises, no arguments about what to watch.



    Bedrooms & Bathrooms

    > Bedroom 1: Queen bed with ensuite

    > Bedroom 2: Double bed

    > Bedroom 3: Double bed

    > Bedroom 4: Double bed

    > 1 other full bathroom + powder room



    The Location:

    Umina Beach is one of the Central Coast's best-kept secrets — a wide, family-friendly beach backed by calm streets, parks, and local cafés. Umina Precinct Park with its pump track, skate park, and playground is a short stroll away. Brisbane Water and Bouddi National Parks are right on the doorstep for coastal bushwalks, kayaking, and hidden lookouts. And if you want to explore further, Terrigal, Avoca Beach, and the broader Central Coast are just minutes by car.



    Cove Beach House delivers all year round. Summer means pool days, beach walks, and long evenings under the cabana. Autumn and spring bring quieter beaches and the pool to yourself. Winter on the Central Coast is milder than you'd expect — slow mornings, sun-filled interiors, and the nature reserve at its most peaceful. Whatever the season, you'll want to come back.



    The Neighborhood:

    Umina Beach is a relaxed coastal suburb on the Central Coast of New South Wales, located about 85 km north of Sydney on the Woy Woy Peninsula. It’s known for its long, sandy beachfront that stretches along Broken Bay and the Pacific Ocean, making it a popular destination for swimming, surfing, fishing, and family beach days. The beach is patrolled in warmer months and offers calm waters that are particularly appealing to families and water‑based activities.



    The suburb has a friendly, laid‑back lifestyle with a well‑established village centre featuring cafes, restaurants, shops, supermarkets, and local services. There’s a strong community feel, with parks, playgrounds, surf life‑saving clubs, and recreational areas that locals and visitors enjoy year‑round. Umina Beach also borders Brisbane Water National Park, offering opportunities for bushwalking, scenic lookouts, and nature experiences close to the coast.

The house is a good size and has 4 bedrooms but only the main bedroom has a King size bed. The other 3 bedrooms are only doubles, which presented some challenges when you have adults that are tall and children.The pool was good but when we arrived the water was murky and even though we contacted Coast Hosting and sent them a photo showing the salt was low, it was only on day 3 that they sent someone to attend. There are no pool towels on the property so had to use bath towels which meant we were constanly washing towels and running the dryer.Overall the house is well appointed with a pizza ove, BBQ and air fryer and we used all of them. The fridge was great with plumbed water and ice. This has the making of a really great holiday rental but misses in a few areas, like I said the bed setup, plus only 2 tea towels and 1 dish cloth. It had an iron but no ironing board, limited cleaning spray to clean the 10 seater timber dining table. There were kids toys and things in some of the wardrobes which I assume belonged to the owners kids and DVD player but no no Kids DVD's so we didn't use. And even though we arrived on the 10th January still had a real Christmas Tree up in the lounge area. As for Coast Hosting with Lane all communication was thru email and was sometimes slow to get a response, I did phone the mobile number on a number of occasions but always went unanswered. Which was a bit frustrating especialy regarding the pool.
