About this property

Moreton Magic • Breathtaking Moreton Bay Views • Plunge Pool

Welcome to Grand View, one of Moreton Island’s most spectacular hilltop holiday homes. Set high above Tangalooma with uninterrupted views stretching from Brisbane to Caloundra. This beautifully designed beach house offers 4 bedrooms, a private plunge pool, and breezy open plan living made for families, couples and groups seeking a premium island escape.
Whether you’re here for sunsets on the deck, whale watching in winter, or easy access to Tangalooma Resort, Grand View delivers the perfect blend of comfort, space and unforgettable scenery. Whether you arrive with a 4WD or without, Grand View gives you effortless access to the very best of Moreton Island.
The Experience
Wake up to sweeping ocean views and choose your perfect kind of day. Swim in the protected, shallow western beach — calm, clear and ideal for families — or head across to the surf on the eastern beach for waves, beach walks and wide open coastline. Moreton Island is an adventure playground: unbelievable fishing, 4WD beach driving, crabbing, worming, bird watching, and even climbing or tobogganing down the giant sand hills.
Prefer to relax? Float in the plunge pool, wander down to the resort, or simply stretch out on the deck and watch dolphins, turtles, cruise ships and yachts drift across the bay. Each evening ends with a sunset that lights up the entire horizon — a moment so spectacular it has inspired a marriage proposal.
At Grand View, you can be as adventurous or as laid back as you like. Breezy, bright and perfectly positioned to capture cooling sea winds all year round, the house makes holiday living effortless.
