Husband and dog loved the location and perfect views of the ocean!
What a spectacular little town - gorgeous place to unwind and relax. Very comfortable home… we will definitely stay again!
The home had a large covered balcony with uninterrupted views of the ocean. We had breakfast, lunch and dinner each day on the balcony.

rang the day before asking if there was a chance of getting in earlier as we had to get to a wedding at 2pm, they said they will call us back and advise. they NEVER rang back. I rang late that afternoon and the lady said NO we could not get in early without checking with anyone I asked why nobody rang me back and she said there is no record of call so she doesnt know
We had a lovely family stay at the Werri Beach Shack. Every thing we needed was provided. The house has a great atmosphere and we enjoyed the view. Hope to return for a longer stay. Thank you for making us feel so comfortable and welcome.
Our family of four & our beloved dog had a wonderful midweek getaway at The Werri Shack. From the moment we opened the front door the house welcomed us in. Lots of space for everyone to sit back, relax & take in the gorgeous view of Werri beach & the coastal headlands. Walking distance to town for all that we needed. We loved it & can’t wait head back!
Really impressed with this property and its location. The house had everything you needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Would definitely stay again. Highly recommended!
As soon as we stepped in the door we were in love with the home. The styling was beautiful, bedding super comfortable. We spent hours enjoying the deck on both sunny and rainy days, the view never gets old. Lots of fun playing ping pong too!
Love this property, has everything we need, very comfortable, with a beautiful view. We will definitely be back. Thank you for the wonderful memories with my family.
I am actually sitting on the couch looking at the ocean at Werri Shack as I write this. We are all so very sad to have to return home. This place had everythibg for the kids in their own space which they loved. I am a massive fan of cooking and was extremely impressed with the kitchen facilities. The outdoor and indoor living spaces are also amazing - and lastly great proximity to town! We will be back!!
Loved the styling, views, thoughtful touches and the fact that our fur baby could come too. We had a few difficulties with the washing machine - the instructions were not very helpful but this has since been rectified.
Beautiful and comfortable house. Clean and cozy. Great location. Quiet and well equipped. Perfect for our two dogs and for kids. Thanks for having us and we can’t wait to come back.
We arrived a little early, no problem checking in and the process was simple. There was an abundance of utensils to use and everything was spotless. We loved bringing our dog and she was safe in the fenced yard. Overall very good value....
Overall a great property but the gas heater would not light so cold in the mornings and quite a few plates and cutlery were dirty. We did appreciate the early check in and the Mecca sunscreen.
Really enjoyed our short stay at the Werri beach shack. Everything a family with a dog needed. Great view from the back verandah. Hope to return soon.

Casual, relaxed beatifully appointed beach house!
As you look at the photos, the shack looks wonderful. They do not do it justice however. The view is vastly superior and the rooms are generously large. The interior design of the shack is modern, well thought out and very relaxed. There is everything you need in this one and a distinct attention to detail. A short walk to the beach and halfway up the hill to the high street. In a very quiet street, so typically Australian and relaxed. We will certainly grab this one again when returning to see family in Gerringong. High recommend it for its ease of check-in process, style, relaxed and comfortable interiors, the view and proximity to both the High Street and the beach! Well done and thank you.
