About this property
Breathtaking views of the Porpoise Bay in the Sunshine Coast
Bella Vista is a peaceful, eco-friendly getaway designed for comfort, connection, and stunning views.
The home stays cozy year-round thanks to a geothermal system and solar panels, helping reduce our footprint while keeping things simple and sustainable.
Large windows frame incredible views of Porpoise Bay and the surrounding mountains. We even repurposed trees cleared during construction to create unique countertops and staircases — a meaningful way to stay rooted in the land.
Located in the quiet Sandy Hook neighbourhood, Bella Vista offers front-row seats to nature — perfect for relaxing, exploring, and even catching the northern lights when they appear.
The main floor is completely step-free, making it easy for everyone to enjoy.
Whether you're gathering with family, reconnecting with friends, or simply need a quiet place to land while you're on the Sunshine Coast — for vacation or for work — Bella Vista offers the space and serenity to make the most of your stay.
Pets are welcome too — because vacations should include every member of the family.
We care deeply about preserving the calm, natural beauty of this place. Bella Vista is a true retreat, and we’re committed to keeping it that way.
