UNDER THE SUN

WINE COLLECTIVE

Afternoons at Under the Sun carry a kind of effortless coastal charm — sun-warmed tables, a gentle sea breeze drifting through, and glasses of beautifully curated wines from Golden Child, Brash Higgins, and Poppelvej catching the late-day light. There’s a laid-back hum as locals wander in, the atmosphere equal parts refined and relaxed, where conversations stretch easily over small plates and shared pours. It’s the sort of place where time softens; one glass turns into two, and the outside world fades into the golden horizon. Just a short drive from many of the Casa Mia Stays, it’s our go-to for an unhurried moment — a place to sip something special and settle into the easy rhythm of Aldinga evenings. Right next door to Rustic Thai.

FALL FROM GRACE

WINE BAR

Afternoons at Fall From Grace Wine Bar in Aldinga embody pure autumn elegance — rich reds and crisp whites served in beautiful glasses, golden light spilling across the terrace, and a warm, inviting atmosphere that wraps around you like a soft scarf. Locals and visitors alike drift in after work, as soft jazz melodies set the mood, and before long, you’re sharing a toast over charcuterie boards and seasonal bites. It’s the perfect spot to let the week melt away and ease into the slower, cozier rhythm of South Coast life. Just minutes from the Casa Mia stays, we love popping in for a glass (or two) of expertly poured wine and a moment of indulgent relaxation.

KICKBACK BREWING

TAPHOUSE & KITCHEN

Afternoons at Kickback Brewing in Aldinga feel like a summer dream — cold craft beers arriving at the table, sunshine spilling across the courtyard, and that relaxed coastal vibe rolling in with every pour. Locals wander in after work, acoustic music hums beneath the chatter, and before you know it, you’re clinking glasses with friends (old or new) as the aroma of wood-fired bites drifts through the air. It’s the perfect spot to shake off the week and unwind into two days of pure South Coast bliss. Located just minutes from many of the Casa Mia stays, we love dropping by Kickback for a few well-deserved, refreshing ales.
