Casa Del Mar with the Best views in Encounter Bay | Villa in Waitpinga
5 Bedroom Villa in Waitpinga
Perched high above Encounter Bay on a private coastal estate, Casa Del Mar is a destination in itself — a rare retreat where panoramic ocean views stretch from The Bluff to The Coorong, just over an hour from Adelaide, yet feeling entirely removed from the everyday.
From the moment you pass through the gates and wind down the palm-lined drive, the sense of arrival is unmistakable. Inspired by Spanish Colonial architecture with Moroccan and Mediterranean influences, the villa is richly layered with curated artworks, handcrafted details, and pieces collected through years of travel — creating a setting that feels more like a European escape than a typical coastal stay.
This is a place designed for connection, stillness, celebration, and time well spent together.
The Experience
Designed for groups who value space, privacy, and shared moments, Casa Del Mar accommodates up to 12 guests across 5 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, and multiple living zones — allowing everyone to come together, or retreat when they wish.
Guests enjoy:
Expansive open-plan living, dining, and kitchen spaces with a wood fireplace
A striking wrought-iron and glass conservatory dining room overlooking the bay
Terraced courtyards and harbor-facing lawns ideal for alfresco dining, lounging, or lawn games
A fully equipped entertainer’s kitchen with premium appliances and coffee machine
Selection of locally sourced breakfast provisions and seasonal beverages
A separate, self-contained games and cinema wing adds flexibility for mixed groups, featuring billiards, table tennis, darts, a kitchenette, bathroom, queen bedroom, and a distinctive outdoor shower — ideal for teens, couples, or guests seeking extra privacy.
Sleeping & Layout (Important to Read)
Casa Del Mar is best suited to adult groups, families with older children, and celebratory stays.
Some bedrooms feature mezzanine elements, minimal separation, spiral staircases, and elevated walkways. For this reason, the property is not recommended for small children without constant supervision.
Two bedrooms are located within the separate pavilion — a feature many guests love for privacy, but which should be considered when planning your group.
The Setting
Set within an expansive private landscape, the property offers exceptional privacy, ever-changing coastal light, and abundant wildlife. Kangaroos, birds, and native fauna are regular visitors, and the night skies are often filled with stars.
Despite the secluded feel, you remain within easy reach of the Fleurieu Peninsula’s beaches, wineries, and coastal towns.
