This inviting family hideaway, situated within a secure gated estate, boasts easy access to the iconic spots of the coast including a two-minute drive to Urangan Pier and Dayman Point, and five minutes to the sand and surf of Torquay Beach. Of course, you can also leave the car and enjoy the park and beach from across the road, and treat yourself to fresh seafood within a three-minute stroll. If you're visiting during the right season, don't miss an incredible experience for a whale watching tour off the Esplanade. The living room is equipped with a large TV with Netflix and Disney+, and split-type heating and cooling providing a breezy, light-filled space to unwind after your adventures. Stay in and enjoy relaxed days at home with a fully equipped kitchen with an island for preparing meals, while an outdoor BBQ is a great addition. The charming dining area sits four, and next to it is an office nook offering a dedicated workspace to set up your laptop. Rest easy within the primary bedroom featuring a comfortable queen bed, a 55" Smart TV, and a convenient ensuite bathroom, while the second bedroom provides two king-single orthopedic beds and mirrored wardrobes. The main bathroom is right on the hallway and offers a contemporary shower and well-lit vanity. Additional conveniences include a secure two-car garage, and in-unit laundry facilities including a washer and dryer. We have a single-pet policy for an additional fee of 50AUD—please let us know about your furry friend at the time of booking so we can assess if the space is suitable for them. Unfortunately, cats are not permitted.

Queensland’s Fraser Coast is a stretch of idyllic coastline that faces Fraser Island – the world’s largest sand island. The coastal suburb of Urangan, in Hervey Bay, offers uninterrupted stretches of sand, excellent fishing spots and a friendly atmosphere. Walk along Urangan’s famous pier at sunset, which stretches more than 800m across the water. This is also the departure point for whale watching tours and the ferry to Fraser Island. Check out the Pier Park Community Markets, held each Wednesday and Saturday (7am-1pm) and the Hervey Bay Botanic Gardens. Dine along the waterfront at Aquavue and Salt Café.
