Beachfront at Glenelg

Absolute Beach front on Adelaide's premier beach. Spectacular views and free WIFI access.

Relax and watch the beach activity from two balconies. This elegantly furnished 3 bedroom apartment with original artwork looks out over the length of Glenelg beach. Step out onto grass and sand; there is no road in front of this building. Surprisingly tranquil, yet a short 2 minute walk along the prominade in front of your apartment takes you to the shopping and restaurant tourist strip of Jetty Rd. There you can explore over 350 shops, numerous restaurants and cafes, hotels, art galleries and a cinema movie complex. The tram to Adelaide City Centre is close by, with access to the cultural precinct of Adelaide and Adelaide Oval a short 20 min tram ride away. The Aquatics Centre is less than 10 min from your door, with direct buses also to the Marion Westfield Shopping Centre. You can hire a bike cheaply from one of the hotels nearby and Adelaide airport is only 15 min away.

The beech view was great. The location of the apartment is very good. The only thing is to improve the heating/cooling system. There is only one split in the lounge and nothing in the rooms.

Glenelg weekend

Property was fantastic- Patricia was very accommodating and helped with keys and parking on day of arrival. Patricia supplied everything- even offered food if we wanted. Beds were very comfortable. View out to the ocean from the lounge and balcony was amazing. Just a great place to stay and close to Jetty Road and the tram. Everything was very convenient. Will stay here again, if Patricia allows.

January Glenelg Trip

Wonderful location and the amenities close by were excellent. Access to the beach for the kids was great with no roads to cross. Just cyclers and joggers to watch out for. Plenty of space in the unit but we spent most of the time outdoors or going for tram rides. Coming from the country all these things were a treat for kids and adults alike.

Stunning apartment close to everything

Our family of 5 (2 adults and 3 young kids) stayed at this awesome apartment right on the beach at Glenelg for 4 nights in November and were blown away by the place. Firstly, the view when you come into this apartment is priceless. Nothing but a footpath sits between you and the Glenelg waves and sand. The sun sets over the sea in Adelaide and you can watch it all from the balcony. The location is extraordinary. You’re a very (very) short stroll from the iconic Glenelg Jetty and all the restaurants and nightlife that sit alongside it (not to mention the tram stop). When I say a short stroll, I’m talking maximum 300m. You’ve got a 10m walk to the sand of Glenelg Beach. Now for the apartment itself. It is an updated apartment in an older building so the outside of the building isn’t much to look at, but the inside of the apartment is beautiful, with a modern kitchen and bathroom. The host has thought of everything so the cupboards have all the easy-to-forget staples to keep you out of trouble (toilet paper, paper towels, dishwasher tablets, cooking oil, laundry detergent etc) and the host had even put a bottle of milk in the fridge for coffee/tea. If you’ve got kids, leave the toys at home - this apartment has drawers full of kids toys, books, boogie boards etc to keep the kids entertained. Host met us on arrival and gave us easy to follow checkout instructions, and even allowed us a later checkout because we had a later flight out of Adelaide. Amazing host. Awesome place

Perfect choice for a getaway

My friends and I had a wonderful stay in this property. It was perfectly located to not need a car and had the most amazing view of the beach. The amenities in the property were excellent. Trish and Joe were very easy to deal with and promptly returned emails. Thanks for a great stay!

Great location, everything we needed.

We had a lovely family stay at this property - 2 adults and 2 children. Perfect location, walking distance to all our needs in Glenelg. We jumped on the tram to go into the city - which the kids loved . Easy to find, easy to get into, property manager very helpful. We would highly recommend this property.

Very comfortable, great spot and great view

This was a great spot for the five of us to base ourselves for 4 days of golf at various courses around Adelaide. Property was very well presented, easy to access, very comfortable and in a great location. Hosts were very accommodating checking in throughout our stay making sure everything was going well.

Amazing place with top location

We had a great time staying here, right on the water front with everything super conveniently located at our doorstep. There were so many restaurants within walking distance and our children adored the beach right in front of the apartment. In fact we could watch them from the balcony and the sunsets were amazing. Everything was sparkling clean and the place was well stocked with provisions and coffee. We will definitely be back - the best holiday ever and a super friendly owner. Thank you so much.
