About this property
STUDIO 51 in Sunshine Rise
This rental property is located on the farm side of the township of Sandy Point situated among the Tea-Tree and Banksia's. It is a 5 minute walk to the local store, tennis courts and mini-golf, along with the Surf Club and a patrolled surf beach. We have planted over 100 Manna Gums on our property and these easily attract our local koala population and often we have them feeding and sleeping in our trees!
The roadways are shared by both vehicles and pedestrians walking and bike riding. Shallow Inlet is a waterway 5 minutes by car and a 20 minute walk along the new walking track. The walking track is adjacent to the Sandy Point Road and the inlet is where you can take in views of 'The Prom' on the large sand dunes.
Fish Creek and Foster are the closest towns and are within 15-20 minutes from Sandy Point. Fish Creek is home to several art studio's and the famous Botanical Banksia Artist and Drawings of 'Celia Rosser'. The Gecko Studio Gallery, also in Fish Creek has original artworks and gifts for purchase.

There are quite a few properties in Sandy Point for rental but this is one of the best. Such a great experience this place offers in all weathers. If it's available for your stay I'd get it booked before it goes!!
This was a great place to stay! Modern design, well equipped, very clean and quiet. Close to the water. A bit of a drive to Wilson’s Promenade but through beautiful country. Not sure how the hosts orchestrated this, but a Koala came by for visit to the canopy just off the deck. We loved it!
We had a great stay! We even saw koalas out the front which delighted our family visiting from overseas.
Thank you for having us. A beautiful property and highly recommended!
The house was excellent - beautiful, comfortable, well-located, clean (and fabulously well-equipped kitchen). Very helpful and friendly hosts. Relaxed and beautiful beachside town.

Thank you Andrew for your comments.
Always happy to see you return at any time
The Studio was a quiet, clean getaway for my family. The house had everything we needed for a comfortable relaxing stay. Close to the shop and easy walk to the beach, we recommend staying here. We even saw a koala in a tree out the back after a few visits to Sandy Point!

Such a wonderful property I can see why it has so good reviews written. The whole property is perfect and designed brilliantly. Great ambience both inside and outside and superbly equipped to make the stay perfect. Really private feeling and so close to all the amazing things to do in this area. Loved it!
Perfect location, beach house, so comfortable! We have stayed here for 3 years now every summer for a week and we love it. Very accommodating, great set up as we are a family, lots of home cooked meals and also using the BBQ a lot. Can’t wait to come back again

We had a lovely long weekend at Studio 51 with family. The unit has a lot to offer, especially the kitchen is well equipped. It is situated in a quiet spot and even saw koalas in the trees. Janine is a wonderful considerate host. We will definitely be back in the future. Here you can find food for the soul.
