Guests are greeted downstairs by an open-plan family room and a kitchenette, opening out to a large and well-furnished paved patio area, where guests can fire up the BBQ, dine around the large table setting, and socialise around the fire pit. At the other end of the house, a pet-friendly grassy backyard offers ample space to play, relax and soak up the sunshine. Upstairs, you'll find the light-filled living, dining and kitchen area. Enjoy casual dining at the breakfast bar or around the table, with split system air-conditioning and ceiling fans throughout keeping guests comfortable year-round. Eat meals alfresco on the balcony which extends the width of the home and offers two table settings to enjoy a glass of wine at sunset. The upstairs living area includes cosy sofas and a second TV to ensure everyone has space to unwind, with leafy views overlooking the balcony and palm trees. The master bedroom and second bedroom, both located upstairs, feature queen-size beds, while the third and fourth bedrooms are downstairs and offer a queen-size bed and two single beds respectively. Both the upstairs and downstairs bathrooms are neatly presented with a shower and vanity plus all the essentials, while the upstairs bathroom also includes a bathtub where guests can enjoy a leisurely soak. Additional conveniences include Wi-Fi and a dedicated workspace, laundry facilities including a washing machine, and parking spaces fitting a boat or caravan or up to four cars. 100AUD charge applies for guests bringing pets.

You’ll find the beach as well as shops, parks, cafes and the popular Torquay Hotel along the vibrant Esplanade, less than 5 minutes’ walk from your stay. Visit the Torquay Beachside Markets on Saturdays, around 10 minutes’ drive, to pick up handmade arts and crafts, or head to local favourite Beach House Hotel for a hearty bite to eat while enjoying the waterside views. Situated in beautiful Hervey Bay and surrounded by stunning natural attractions, there is plenty to see and do nearby. If you're visiting during winter, hop on a whale-watching tour boat at the marina to see the majestic humpbacks as they migrate along the east coast. Wetside Water Park (closed during winter) is just five minutes’ drive and offers a great family day out, other local attractions include Reef World Aquarium, Fraser Island, and the Great Sandy Straight.
