Luxury Family Beach House Sleeps 18 Best House and Views In Copacabana

Luxury Family Beach House Sleeps 18 Best House and Views In Copacabana

10/10 Excellent
"We had a fantastic long weekend in this four‑storey fabulous home celebrating a 50th birthday with our extended family. The lift to all levels made access easy for everyone, and the amazing ocean views plus an easy walk to the beach made the location perfect. The house comfortably slept our group of 18 people, with the bunk beds great for both adults and children. The chef’s kitchen on level 4, complete with a BBQ just outside, made catering for the whole crew easy, and the indoor fireplace and outdoor fire pit meant we could cook, relax and whale‑watch together. It was an ideal setting for a large family lunch. The kids were entertained for hours with the pool table, table tennis and the old‑school arcade games (Frogger, Donkey Kong, Space Invaders and more). The decor is beautiful, and there are plenty of quiet nooks where you can slip away for a moment to yourself. Rob, the owner, comes across as very down‑to‑earth and was responsive and accommodating with any requests, and Nadia (“the hostess with the mostest”) gave us a thorough walkthrough of the property and made sure we knew how everything worked. We would happily return for another special family occasion. We give our ridiculously fabulous Cococabana holiday stay 5 s. So glad we have found this place !!"

"Graceland" – Stone’s Throw from the Beach

10/10 Excellent
"I can not thank the hosts who assisted us in a great time of need. Our original booking was cancelled the morning we were meant to check in which left us scrambling to find a replacement accomodation. Despite multiple situations that made the process harder (not through any fault of the hosts) there were so supportive and helpful. The house is beautiful, clean, neat, and was wonderful to stay in over Christmas. There was plenty of room, great amentities and the location was fantastic - just a short walk to the beach and local shops. We had guests ranging from 3 all the way up to their 70s and all thoroughly enjoyed the accomodation. The highlights for the adults were the amazing theatre room, the well appointed and roomy kitchen & dining (for Christmas day prep). For the kids they couldn't go past the arcade game, pool and fusbal table. The addition of supplied beach toys/body boards sealed the deal. We would happily stay here again and encourage others to do so also! Thank you again!"
