About this property
The Beach escape @ Primrose Sands
Imagine a 2 bedroom house with spectacular views of Primrose Sands beach, Frederick Henry Bay and Mount Wellington.
Imagine a convenient 1-2 minute walk to the gorgeous beach with its pure white sands, the shop, children's playground, adult fitness park and BMX bike track.
Imagine everything you need to entertain the kids - a large sandpit, cubby house, XBox 360 console, heaps of books, DVD's, games and puzzles, totem tennis, boogie boards, and a kids play room, they will entertain themselves - kids love staying with us!
Imagine no more - visit The Beach Escape @ Primrose Sands!
