You will feel a million miles away in this elegant and impressive Mediterranean inspired pet friendly beach retreat. Built to reflect the essence of its name, Philotimo (a classical Greek word used to describe many virtues including honour, gratitude and love) this beautiful home radiates an abundance of good energy and warm hospitality. With an absolute beach front position, Philotimo is the perfect place to relax and unwind away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Beautifully appointed and cleverly designed you’ll have everything you need at your fingertips. This home is also pet friendly (see pet policy below).

Spend your days wandering between this beautiful abode and the golden sands of North Avoca beach. After a day of sandy toes and sun kissed skin, take a refreshing rinse under one of the beautiful outdoor showers before retiring to one of the many outdoor terraces. The rear terrace and lawn are perfect for casual cocktails while the kids play a game of Finska on the lush lawn. For a more Mediterranean vibe, venture up to the rooftop terrace and soak up the evening sun over some antipasto and an Aperol Spritz.

During the cooler months you’ll find ample space to cosy up inside, enjoying the underfloor heating and enjoy the beautiful beach vista through the floor to ceiling windows. The designer kitchen and dining room is the perfect place to gather for those fabulous family feasts and festivities. For those that prefer a little peace the generous bedrooms, as well as multiple living areas, will mean everyone can find a quiet corner where you can get lost in that book you’ve been meaning to read all year.

The Area

This picture perfect stretch of beach is great for the whole family. For the energetic type, pack the surfboards and paddle out for the day. For those who prefer a more mellow activity, mosey on round to the lake for a spot of stand up paddle boarding.

If you can tear yourself away from this beautiful hideaway venture into Avoca town for a wonder around the beach front markets where you’ll find an array of local produce, arts and crafts. For something more lively, head over the hill to Terrigal where you’ll find a fabulous selection of boutique shops, cocktail bars, restaurants and live music venues.
