Kiama & Wollongong Accommodation
Two destinations. Two distinct escapes. Each an invitation to slow down, reconnect, and rediscover coastal living at its most refined.
Perched along the Illawarra coastline, Kiama and Wollongong offer their own rhythms of escape. One framed by rolling headlands and ocean pools, the other alive with surf, culture, and coastal sophistication.
Our carefully curated homes in these seaside towns reflect the essence of each place. In Kiama, Pia’s Paradise captures the ease of barefoot luxury: sunlit decks, soft coastal hues, and a sense of calm that lingers long after the sea breeze fades. In Wollongong, Lumiere House offers a unique, retreat-style property nestled in the trees of leafy Mangerton.
These are not simply places to stay, they are invitations to live the South Coast way, where luxury is unhurried and every moment feels considered.
