This 3-bedroom fabulous holiday home is one of the original 60's/70’s shacks. It has been fully renovated, with all modern comforts. The character has been retained where possible and the upgrades have been sensitive to its original era but with a touch of the classic beach Hampton style, and then a twist of country France.
Dump beach is located within walking distance with easy access to the beach and to public toilets. This holiday home is ideally located within a couple of minutes driving from the popular Port Elliot or Victor Harbor.
Oceans 8 is a small house that packs in loads of extra outdoor spaces plus the Retro Room. There are three bedrooms, a brand new kitchen with a big island bench that does double duty as a dining space, living room, and renovated bathroom. Mod cons include oven with air fryer and steamer, dishwasher, coffee machine, reverse cycle AC, ceiling fans, and front-loading washing machine. There is WiFi with Netflix, plus books and board games, and if you have to do some work while on holidays, there is a laptop-friendly workspace.
In addition to the main house, there is a separate Retro Room where Charlie Chaplin greets you at the door near the outside ‘Charlie’s Bar’. Or kick back with a drink enjoying a larger second living area tiled in Italian terrazzo tiles and a colourful collection of Pop Art such as Marilyn Monroe or original 70’s abstract art.
A unique addition to the property is the original rowboat tied to the back deck (not for use in the water) from the iconic Yilki store in Encounter Bay that used to bob up and down in the ocean in the 70’s. There are umbrellas that can be moved between the decks, depending on which one you decide to use. There is also an outdoor shower to wash off humans or dogs after a visit to Dump Beach!
The bedding configuration is as follows :
• Bedroom 1 - One Queen bed (sleeps 2)
• Bedroom 2 - One Double bed (sleeps 2),
• Bedroom 3 - Two Single beds (sleeps 2)
