About this property
Belle Escapes Sand Castaways
Eight-bedroom close-by luxury accommodation with two heated pools, walking distance from the beach, restaurants, and cafes of Palm Cove Esplanade.
Belle Escapes presents this rare opportunity to stay in close-by sister properties, walking distance from the beach and the iconic Palm Cove Esplanade. With a combined total of eight bedrooms, Sandcastles and Castaways are two spacious, contemporary houses situated a few metres from one another, allowing for seamless movement between the two properties. Providing the perfect holiday base for stress-free integrated multi-family holidays, the configuration of two close-by houses allows for as much or as little privacy as required. Both houses feature a similar layout, wrapping around their central heated swimming pools, and comprising breezy open plan living, generous bedrooms, well-equipped kitchens, and outstanding al fresco areas. Making the most of their leafy, tropical setting, the two stylishly appointed properties deliver a wealth of options for socialising, dining, entertaining, relaxing, and soaking up the peaceful ambience of a classic indoor/outdoor lifestyle.
Castaways and Sandcastles are located within Oceans Edge, a premium beachside estate with access via a boardwalk to the beach and Palm Cove Esplanade, with its world-class restaurants and cafes. In addition to full use of both properties, you’ll have access to the Oceans Edge Health Club, which is equipped with a lap pool, tennis courts, and gym.
