This welcoming family stay has all the comforts you could want from a laidback holiday home while being conveniently situated near the region’s renowned natural attractions. Guests are greeted by an open-plan layout, where you’ll find everything that’s needed to cook and enjoy meals at home. Eat at the breakfast bar or around the table, or head outside to the spacious patio and make use of the BBQ, where you’ll find a six-seater setting and sun loungers overlooking the pool within a fenced backyard. The lounge area features a fresh, white palette and coastal-inspired furnishings, creating a relaxing space to return to after a day of sightseeing, while split system air-conditioning and ceiling fans keep everyone comfortable year-round. A second seating area with a dedicated workspace ensures guests have plenty of room to unwind with a book or get some work done. Three light and airy bedrooms sleep six guests, with the master bedroom featuring a queen-size bed, the second bedroom offering a double bed and the third bedroom having two single beds. In the bathroom, you’ll find a spacious bathtub where you can end the day with a leisurely soak, then there's a separate toilet, ideal for being in a group. Added conveniences include laundry facilities with a washer and dryer and parking for four cars on the premises.

Located in beautiful Hervey Bay and surrounded by natural wonders, there is plenty to see and do. For your morning caffeine fix, local favourite Cafe Balaena is around a 15-minute walk, where you can sip your coffee while enjoying views over the marina to Fraser Island. The beach is also just a stroll away from your stay. Urangan Pier, one of Australia's longest piers, offers a scenic walk that stretches almost one kilometre out to the ocean and is a great viewing spot for fish and dolphins. In the area surrounding the pier, you’ll find alfresco eateries and boutique shopping. If you're visiting during winter, climb aboard a whale-watching tour boat at the marina to see the majestic humpbacks as they migrate along the east coast. Other local attractions include Fraser Island, Reefworld Aquarium, and the Great Sandy Strait.
