Dolce Vita A Beachside Family Garden Retreat

Escape to a fun family haven nestled in the heart of Old Dunsborough, just a minute’s stroll from the crystal-clear waters of Geographe Bay. Amongst landscaped gardens, this home offers endless activities for kids and the young at heart, from a trampoline to a life-size chessboard. Unwind on the undercover deck, enjoy the cosy potbelly fireplace indoors, or paddle along the bay with the provided kayaks. Perfectly equipped for families, Dolce Vita promises relaxation & adventure in equal measure.
Step into Dolce Vita and feel instantly at home in its open-plan design, featuring a light-filled living area with a vaulted ceiling showcasing white exposed beams for a touch of character. The inviting L-shaped layout connects the living room, dining space, and kitchen seamlessly. Relax on the large modular sofa while enjoying the warmth of the built-in potbelly fire during winter or the cooling comfort of air-conditioning in summer.

The adjacent dining area includes a six-seater table, positioned near the fully equipped kitchen. Modern appliances, including a large fridge-freezer, electric cooker and hob, and a dishwasher, ensure effortless meal prep for your group.

All three bedrooms are thoughtfully appointed with air-conditioning, blackout blinds, and standalone wardrobes for your belongings. The two bathrooms include a family bathroom with a bathtub, perfect for winding down after a day of fun.

Step outside to the expansive alfresco area, complete with a ten-seater dining table, BBQ, and a wall-mounted outdoor heater for cool evenings. Overhead fans keep the space comfortable during sunny afternoons, while the landscaped gardens—enclosed for privacy—offer plenty to explore. A trampoline, life-size chessboard, and mature trees create a magical outdoor retreat.

Additional amenities include a washer and dryer, children’s books and toys, and parking on the premises.
During your stay, you and your group will have the entire house to yourselves. Please make yourselves at home!

Explore the nearby Cape Naturaliste Lighthouse for breathtaking views, Meelup Regional Park for pristine beaches and trails, or Ngilgi Cave for an underground adventure. Active travellers can enjoy cycling along the foreshore, paddleboarding on the bay, or seasonal whale-watching tours.
For dining, Blue Manna Bistro offers fresh seafood, Clancy’s Fish Pub provides family-friendly meals and live music, and Yarri Restaurant + Bar showcases gourmet, seasonal cuisine. Don’t miss a visit to the Dunsborough Bakery for its famous pies. Old Dunsborough blends outdoor adventure, great food, and peaceful beach days for an unforgettable getaway.
