About this property

'IslandView' The Perfect Holiday Home

'IslandView' is a fabulous, large home set on one level with magnificent breezes overlooking Hideaway Bay, the Gloucester Passage and Whitsunday Islands views that you will rave about. Watching the Sunrise over the ocean is a thrill to behold and Sunset from the beach at Monte's Reef Resort or Gloucester Eco Resort is something not to be missed. One of the rare places in Australia where you can see the Sun set over the ocean. Photographers heaven where the bird life will keep you captivated.

The space

Access is via a small set of steps at the front of the house. For wheelchair access the house can be entered through the garage. All bedrooms are large with King, Queen & 2 Long Singles (zipped together they make a King.) The combined lounge/dining area also has a Queen size Sofa Bed for children only. All linen is provided. The kitchen is fully equipped with utensils, cooking equipment, dishwasher (powder satchet's provided) along with wash cloths, detergent, tea towels and rubbish bags. The laundry has a front loader washing machine and a dryer. Laundry powder satchet's are provided. The wall mounted clothes line is outside the laundry door. A 55" Smart TV is fitted to the wall of the lounge room, so if you wish to bring a hard drive or USB you can view your movies or music etc.

Guest access

The entire house is available to guests other than locked owner cupboards and one space in the double garage. At some times of the year the mandarin tree is in full fruit and we would love our guests to take advantage of this by enjoying these flavoursome treats.

Interaction with guests

As much as we would love to greet our guests personally, we live on the Sunshine Coast so are just a phone call away if our guests require advice on anything. We also have a handyman available at Hideaway Bay if needed.

Other things to note

'IslandView' is on tank water so it is appreciated when our guests take this into consideration. 2 large rubbish bins are provided in the garage for items from the kitchen bin. These can be emptied at the Dingo Beach Refuse Tip approximately half way on the right to Dingo Beach. All rubbish is to be removed from the premises prior to vacating.

Shirley’s place is up there with one of the best places we have ever stayed. It was spotless, had very comfortable beds, everything you could possibly need to cook with and of course the best view! Bonus that it was dog friendly and could relax while Marlin lay on the massive enclosed balcony with nice ocean breezes. We will definitely be back

Thank you Russell, Karen and friends. We are so happy you enjoyed your stay. Thank you also for leaving the house so spic and span and hopefully you got out in your boat to enjoy those fabulous Islands. We appreciated your communication and keeping us updated. You need to come back in June when the Mandarins are ripe.

Amazing!!!!

this is the cleanest place we have ever stayed! A great location and a magnificent view! Everything required to cook a meal was here. Also lots of little added touches. Beds were very comfy, towels thick & soft (tempted to give one star so no one else would stay!) We will definitely be staying again. It was hard to leave when our stay was up. Thank you for such a wonderful place.

Thanks Sandy, had a bit going on hence the delay in my response. We are so glad that you all had a relaxing time at 'IslandView' and really appreciate the consideration and care that you obviously showed our house. We do try to make it a home away from home. You are welcome back anytime.

The perfect 'hydeaway'

Congratulations to Shirley on the presentation of 'Island View'. So clean, spacious, comfortable, with all the necessaries to enjoy our stay. Liked the coastal theme of the house too, blended in beautifully with that stunning ocean view. We all spent many hours just relaxing on the patio enjoying that vista. It was very relaxing walking around the exposed sands and rock pools at low tide. Our young blue heeler loved it too. The perfect ocean view! The perfect getaway!

Relaxing Stay - One of the Best

We have just completed our third or forth stay at "Islandview" and everyone of them has been absolutely great. Hideaway Bay is a quiet, tranquil location where you can unwind completely. Shirley made us feel welcome (including our Bassets (Elroy & Phoebe) by providing immaculate & spacious accommodation, overlooking the Pacific ocean. We spent most of our time sitting on that expansive front patio, which is inviting from the moment you awake. The home is fully equipped, meaning that you only need to travel lightly to the destination. Highly recommend a visit. We will be returning many more times.
