Welcome to 'Crabby Shack' or Crabby as we like to call him. Crabby is our beautifully spacious 5 Bedroom home in Rye; perfectly situated between the Rye front beach (2km) & the wild backbeach (900m) In the mornings; enjoy a freshly brewed coffee (Delonghi La Specialista Prestigio coffee machine) on the front deck lounging on the Adirondack chairs. 5 large Bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms (one is ensuite to a large master) Kids playroom with games, books, pikler frame Did someone say outdoor barrel infared sauna? (IT WAS MEEE) Entertainers dream deck (seriously it is hooge) with smoker bbq and regular gas bbq. Comfortable outdoor furntiure to lounge on...or, dare I say; nap on. 3 large outdoor umbrellas to keep you nice and shady whilst watching the kids enjoy their holiday in the tree house with kitchen & kids reading nook inside +racing slide, monkey bars, mud kitchen. Crabby has everything you need to entertain not only the adults but also the little ones. The dining table happily sits 8-10 people as well as a little peoples dining table & chairs (which can be moved from the playroom.) The kitchen is a cooks dream (or a reheaters dream, you're on holiday so no judgement from us!) 900mm freestanding Falcon oven with 6 burners and plenty of bench space for prep. A kitchen servery window makes dining alfresco a breeze. Space, location, privacy, natural light are all words to desribe this amazing vacation property. This is our home home so we ask for guests to please treat it like they would their home (unless you don't like your home then we ask you to treat ours better than yours ;-) We need respectful guests who will take care of Crabby like we do this means NO parties, NO disrespectful guests please. This is where we raise our two small kiddos. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 5 bedrooms ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Shower ### Living spaces - Dining table ### Entertainment - Books - Games ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Fenced yard - Garden - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden ## Similar properties ![Games room](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/93000000/92440000/92432800/92432720/ee67b723.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Peninsulas largest group accommodation.
