Yamba is a beautiful town in the northeastern part of New South Wales, Australia. It has coastlines everywhere, with challenging waters perfect for surfing. The wildlife here is incomparable as Yurigir National Park is teeming with animals indigenous to Australia. They include wallabies, kangaroos, and emus on the coastal roads. Marine life is as abundant as any, and dolphins are known to swim in these waters often while whales do so occasionally as well.
The beaches here are favorite destinations of travelers from all over the world. Each one has its own attraction. Whiting Beach is for families, where children can swim safely in the shallow waters. Yamba’s main beach, Turner’s Beach, is perfect for sunbathing. Angourie Beach is a surfer’s haven with many attractions. With water everywhere, booking a stay at any of the best Airbnb Yamba houseboats in Australia, is a sensible thing to do.

1. A fun houseboat with a lovely view of the water
Under Airbnb regulations, the Kalimna houseboat should always be moored at Evans Head Harbor. This is great news for those who are looking for a comfortable place to stay in Yamba. The boat measures 33 feet (10 meters) in length. Kalimna means “view over water,” which is an appropriate name for it. It can accommodate four guests comfortably, but an additional two can fit in easily if necessary. The rental has two single beds and a sofa bed for two in the living area. A beanbag makes for a comfortable nook where you can read books or have a cup of coffee to wake you up. This is a Yamba houseboat hire you shouldn’t miss out on.
The convenience of guests was the priority during the design of the boat. The single bathroom has a flush mechanism that keeps it clean all the time. A dependable shower keeps you cool, relaxed, and comfortable during your whole vacation. Who says you cannot prepare decent meals in an airbnb houseboat? Yes, you can, as Kalimna has a small but workable kitchen. It comes with a gas stove, a gas-run refrigerator, and two eskies for additional food storage. Grill some meats and freshly caught fish on the barbecue out on the deck while popping a few cold ones.
A canopied upper deck is vast enough to accommodate everyone. If you and your companions are up for some fun in the water, there is a dinghy boat, two standing paddle boats, and two kayaks ready for you to use without any extra charge.
