Award-winning private peaceful for couples mins to beach National Park & village

Award winning, separate entry, spacious and private studio apartment with ensuite, walk-in robe and living/kitchen area. Two separate deck areas set in a garden overlooking a local park allow you to enjoy breakfast amongst the birds, or a peaceful afternoon BBQ. Perfect for watching the full moon rise. Fall asleep on a luxurious Sealy Posturepedic mattress to the sound of the surf and rustling palm fronds, wake energised by the fresh sea air.

Please note that there is a flight of uneven garden stairs down to the front door (see photos). Suitcase wheels are not effective on the access path.

Step outside to a choice of activities: patrolled surf beach a 10 minute stroll, Noosa National Park offering wildlife and a variety of hiking/running trails, and Sunshine Village are both 10 minutes walk away. Here you're close to the action but can escape the crowds when you've had enough.

The village features a coffee roastery, range of quality restaurants, cafe's and take-aways, as well as deli, bottle shops, small supermarket and the popular Surf Club with its spectacular ocean views. Suitable accommodation for wedding guests attending SB wedding venues.

Perfect Location & Hosts
This unit is perfectly situated, as others have mentioned, for access to Sunshine Beach, cafes/ restaurants, and the amazing Noosa National Park. The deck offers the most marvelous treed sanctuary where multitudes of birds can be seen and heard. Jean answered all questions promptly and provided detailed, timely information, which made booking, finding and living in the unit trouble-free. Pete was also very helpful upon a late, dark check-in when we were tired, lost, and confused. ;-) We highly recommend this lovely unit & its hosts.

Excellent find!
This was a beautiful quiet downstairs property which was very spacious for the two of us. It was clean, very well presented and well stocked with kitchenware and extra basic bits to make a cup of tea etc on arrival. The outside space was beautiful and calm as was the surrounding local area. The hosts were very communicative online and extremely helpful when we did get in touch. Highly recommend this property.

About the host

Hosted by Jean Tulloch

Host profile image
Jean: I'm a gardener, bird watcher and nature lover, also into health and cooking. My husband Pete, an architect, designed this property as a home and office for our family, along with a granny flat for my mother, who lived with us for many years. She was a gardener too! Pete is into surfing, painting and drawing. We both love bushwalking, travel and reading.
Now that our children have left home we enjoy sharing our location with guests. Their appreciation reminds us to keep noticing what a lovely environment we live in.

Why they chose this property

We love living 5 minutes walk away from the Noosa National Park, where we do a brisk exercise circuit most days. This property is elevated enough to catch summer sea breezes so it's cooler than other parts of the town. And adjoining a local park enlarges our garden backdrop without adding to our workload! Pete likes having lots of different beaches around Noosa - that way, there's usually somewhere to catch a wave on his longboard, no matter which direction the wind blows from.
We also enjoy the stimulation of living in Noosa, which, for its size, hosts a wide range of sporting, community and cultural groups as well as many annual events.

What makes this property unique

The apartment was designed as a home, rather than a vacation property, so it's spacious and well equipped. Set a couple of streets back from the beachfront allows us and our guests to retreat from the holiday crowds into more serene, residential surroundings, while retaining an easily walkable distance to the coffee shops, cafes and restaurants of Sunshine Beach village. Exercising in the National Park means that our walks are always different - there's always something new to enjoy as the seasons change and the wildlife goes about its daily business.
