About this property

The Bahama House, Luxury by the beach.

Bahama Style on your door step... literally as you walk through your entry way and into the high pitched foyer, an amazing tropical holiday experience awaits!

Take a short 1 min stroll to the golden sands of 4 mile beach and plunge into the warm waters of the Coral Sea or swim in the crystal clear water of your own large pool.

Soak up the suns rays on a sun lounge by the pool or read a book under the shade of the raised Cocktail Pavilion.

Enjoy the colors and splendor of tropical plants around the pool.
Relax on a daybed in your own private piece of rain forest from where tropical parrots and birds will greet you each morning.

When the children (and you) need a break from the pool, there is the large screen Smart TV or a maybe a board game.
Hook into the Wifi provided and go online or quietly watch a TV provided in each bedroom.

In the evening, decide whether to take a short walk to one of the nearby restaurants, hop on the shuttle into town or enjoy your poolside Alfresco bbq dining area.
A large built in BBQ, Outdoor Bar Fridge and Outdoor dining setting will ensure this dinner choice becomes a holiday favorite.

At night, sleep with the shutters open safe behind fly screening and listen to the sounds of the tropical north or simply close up the room and turn on the air conditioning.

For your morning coffee (if you don't want to use the house coffee machine!) walk to St Crispins Cafe (Escape St - we love it here).

With three Master suites to choose from, Caribbean architecture vibes in the entertaining pavilions and breathtaking landscaping around your large private pool, you can live the dream!

A great base to explore the GREAT BARRIER REEF & DAINTREE RAINFOREST !

Why they chose this property

The Bahama House is a WOW house, from the moment you walk through the magnificent front door.
It is very spacious and has 3 master bedrooms so no one has to fight over the 'best bedroom'!!
The other 2 bedrooms share a bathroom.
The kitchen is devine.
The backyard is a real treat, infact when you are in the pool and look up at the backyard with the towering trees it is one of the best views.
It is 177 steps to the beach and has everything you need, beach bags, pool toys, games, baby equip and loads of luxurious touches.
At 5pm you will probably find yourself in the Cocktail Pavilion reflecting about your days adventures!

What makes this property unique

We built this house 10 years ago and tried to capture tropical design and living.
The decor is reminiscent of British Colonial influences. Almost all of the furniture was made on Islands around Indonesia. One of the pencil post beds was found in an old shed on a tiny island from the Portuguese era of Indonesia - the remarkable thing about this bed is that it was EXACTLY the bed I wanted for this house and was going to order one, instead we got the real thing!
Even the front door is full of history. The timber is from an old rainforest bridge that was removed the year we built our house - I love the history of the timber and everytime I walk through the door I can't help but wonder what this timber has weathered over the years.
We hope our guests feel spoilt and indulged and leave with wonderful holiday memories that will last a lifetime.
