'Seventeen Steps to the Beach' is a luxuriously-appointed beach house right on the beach. The open-plan layout assures breath taking views throughout, including a massive deck leading straight to the beach and ocean. The deck or the beach are the perfect locations to lie back on a bean-lounge and read a book, sip wine or soak up the sun.
Beautifully and professionally styled and furnished, every effort has been made to keep the spacious 'shack' feel whilst maximizing the amazing beach, coastal and water views. The only thing more spectacular than the view inside is the view outside!
The kitchen, by 'shack' standards, is large, featuring Caesar stone benchtops, state-of-the-art appliances incl. fridge with filtered ice-maker/drink dispenser, European cooktop & oven, dishwasher, POD coffee machine & integrated microwave. There is bar-seating plus separate dining with doors leading to the deck. The living area also has doors opening-up for maximum outdoor access to outdoor dining, BBQ (portable electric) available and adjustable shade.
The 'shack' faces N.N.E, picking up the sun all day, with excellent insulation throughout. Reverse-cycle aircon, portable heating + electric blankets are on all beds if required. It's doubtful you would want to block the view, however a flick of a button & UV protection sheer blinds electrically roll down.
Comfortably sleeping 2-4 adults there are two spacious bedrooms (Queen in main + 2xsingle in Br2, with quality linen & 'Dunlop' pillows). Both bedrooms have full built-in robes and exceptional water-views. The main bedroom has its own entry to the bathroom, incl. laundry (with washing/drying). Both bedrooms have sliding adjustable plantation shutters so you have the choice of either waking-up to a spectacular Boat Harbour Beach sunrise or to sleep in (or a little of both). We highly recommend waking-up early one morning to have breakfast on the deck with the sun rising over Table Cape and the water.
'Seventeen Steps' is perched as close as possible to the beach, with the sounds and view of one of the world's finest beaches uninterrupted; the steps from the deck leading straight to the fine, white, powdery, squeaky-under foot sand, with rocks and rockpools also nearby.
The dictionary lists PARADISE as: a place of extreme beauty, delight, or happiness. It is only fitting to enjoy 'paradise' in equally superb accommodation. You have found the best location and the best place to stay, now the only question you need to ask is: How long should I stay?

Fantastic location. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay on the beach.
Unobstructed beach view, absolutely divine setting and location. Very relaxing and peaceful. Love the property design and layout, roomy, contained, open all at the same time. Perfect for anyone. Family friendly, the grandkids loved the beach and just playing with jigsaws that were provided. We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay here. Love the ocean sounds and starry nights
Amazing place to stay, so close to beach. Beautiful area, never fails. Accomodation brilliant with lots of extras . Couldn’t fault anything. Owners have thought of everything to make your stay home from home.
Perfect location, lovely outlook. Seventeen steps had everything we needed for a great stay in boat harbour. Easy check-in/out. All the facilities we needed. We’ll be back!
Very well equipped property with everything there to thoroughly enjoy your stay. Have stayed here many times now and as soon as we walk through the door are are completely relaxed.
Seventeen steps to the beach is pure relaxation right on the beach. My family and I absolutely loved our stay. We have been staying at this property over the last 10years and would definitely recommend it.
This was our third trip to this amazing place and wonderful property. We always enjoy our stay and will go back again for sure. Thanks to Arthur...and Jake for the daily newspaper.
