Endless views at Macmasters

Aarini Cottage is peacefully nestled high up on the hill with a stunning leafy view of Macmasters Beach, Copacabana Headland, and the Tasman Sea. This inspiring vista accompanies every step while you enjoy the spacious open-plan living.

There were a variety of natural wonders to discover. We spent our days exploring lush hikes in the coastal rainforests, visiting secluded beaches, and admiring lookout points in Bouddi National Park - all just over the hill. We loved surfing and relaxing with our fur baby at the dog-friendly beach, sipping amazing coffee, and snacking at Macs Beachside Café. Everything about this escape left us feeling rejuvenated and grounded.

Aarini Cottage has luxurious amenities and plenty of space for your crew to relax and enjoy a BBQ on the deck, sunrise yoga, or create a feast inside watching an evening storm roll through.
