midcentury luxury on ULLADULLA’S racecourse beach

STAY WITH US

Chante Mer ‘Sing the Sea’

Nestled above the golden sands of Racecourse Beach in Ulladulla, Chante Mer is a mid-century treasure unlike any other. This exceptional boutique accomodation is as much a work of art as it is a place to rest your soul.

Wake slowly to the sound of waves and take your morning coffee to the deck, while you watch the dolphins cruise on past. Step directly onto your private stretch of Racecourse Beach, one of the South Coast's most beloved surf breaks and let the rhythm of the ocean set the pace for your day. Come winter, the same waters become a front-row seat to the awe-inspiring annual whale migration, a spectacle that never grows old.

Whether you're gathering a group of friends for a long-overdue escape, treating the family to a holiday they'll talk about for years, or simply craving a boutique getaway that feels a world apart

This is not just a stay. It's an experience

Location

Perched atop the pristine flat rocks of Racecourse Beach, Chante Mer is your ultimate luxury seaside escape, with private beach access and uninterrupted ocean views from every bedroom.

Once you arrive, you may never want to leave. But if you do venture out, you're perfectly placed, just 9 minutes to the acclaimed Cupitt's Winery, 10 minutes to the golden shores of Mollymook Beach, and a leisurely 1km stroll to the heart of Ulladulla.

Back home, nature puts on a show that rivals them all. Racecourse Beach is a sanctuary for wildlife lovers, endangered shorebirds nest quietly in the protected dunes, and on any given morning, pods of dolphins cruise effortlessly along the coastline, a reminder that at Chante Mer, this is simply everyday life.

 

About Us

Laura and Matty

Chante Mer holds a beautiful place in the history of Ulladulla, a well-loved home that has long captured the hearts of those who know this stretch of coastline. We discovered this remarkable mid-century masterpiece in 2024 and, although she was in need of some serious love, we saw exactly what she could become. And so began a year-long renovation dedicated to restoring Chante Mer to the luxury home she was always meant to be.

Our vision was simple, we wanted guests to walk through the door and instantly exhale. That deep, shoulders-drop feeling you only get when you're truly on holiday. A sanctuary from the outside noise. From the sweeping ocean views to the warm tones, textural finishes and original artworks, every corner of Chante Mer has been considered with care. She is as much a work of art as she is a home, and every room is filled with character, warmth and love.

It is our absolute pleasure to share our families little slice of paradise with you.
