About this property

Pet-Friendly 4BR Beach House | Fenced Yard | 300m to Beach | K'gari Gateway

Four bedrooms, sleeps 8, a huge fully fenced yard for kids and dogs, and a double carport for the 4WD, boat or jet ski — all a 300m stroll to the beach, shops and pub, and 10 minutes from the K'gari barge at Inskip Point.

Drift at Rainbow is a proper single-level beach house run by real people who know how to relax, host, and burn a sausage on the BBQ (optional). No laminated rule books, no weird throw pillows — just space, comfort and an easy walk to everything Rainbow Beach does best.

THE HOUSE
- 4 comfy bedrooms: King with ensuite, Queen, Double, 2x King Singles. Sleeps 8, and no bunk beds from 1987.
- Two lounge areas, so the kids' movie and your quiet wine can coexist
- Fully equipped kitchen — yes, we mean actual pots and proper wine glasses
- Fast Wi-Fi, smart TVs, washing machine, and all linen included
- Front verandah for sunrise coffee, covered rear entertaining zone plus BBQ for sunset drinks that somehow turn into midnight yarns
- Huge fully fenced yard — bring the kids, bring the dog, bring your inner child
- Double carport plus off-street parking for the 4WD, boat or jet ski

THE LOCATION
Rainbow Beach is the quiet achiever of the Queensland coast — and Drift puts you 300m from the middle of it. Walk to the surf, the main street cafés, and the pub (if you drive, you're doing it wrong). From the front door you're:
- About 10 minutes from the K'gari (Fraser Island) barge at Inskip Point — the perfect base camp before or after the island
- A short walk from Carlo Sand Blow and the famous coloured sand cliffs
- In whale territory June to October — watch humpbacks from the headland
- Handy to Double Island Point, beach 4WDing, surf, and some of the best land-based fishing in Queensland
- Under seriously dark skies — the stargazing here surprises everyone

YOUR LOCAL SECRET WEAPON
Kerri, our local co-host, has superpowers when it comes to guests: the dinner recs, the tide advice, where the locals actually get coffee. Anything you need, she's got it sorted.

Family holiday, multi-gen reunion, K'gari expedition base, or a crew of mates chasing sun and space — Drift brings the goods.

Book it, claim the ensuite, pack thongs (flip-flops for the internationals), and let the Drift begin...
