About this property

TERANGA at Mission Beach - direct beach access

Teranga is an architecturally designed absolute beachfront executive retreat, overlooking beautiful Mission Beach.Senegalese for hospitality, ‘Teranga’ is a word synonymous with relaxation and tranquility.

Teranga was built to provide guests with a private getaway, whilst maintaining harmony with its surrounds. It’s open plan design lets you feel at one with nature whilst preserving privacy, comfort and relaxation. From the moment you enter the house, you will be taken back by the view of the palm fringed beach and Coral Sea at the bottom of the landscaped garden. The house features modern design including cathedral height ceilings and patio doors that open wide to take advantage of the naturally cooling breezes from the sea.

Be it an executive couples retreat or, family getaway with friends, the design of the house makes it an ideal choice. Teranga will never disappoint.

BEDROOM CONFIGURATIONS:

The two other bedrooms sleep up to 2 per room, and can be configured with either a king-sized bed or 2 long singles. Each also have their own en-suite, with complimentary aromatherapy natural skincare products for your first few nights stay.

The 5.5m x 7.0m salt chlorinated pool is one of the largest private pools you'll find in Mission Beach, giving a cool respite when not at the beach.

Then there's the hidden paradise that is Mission Beach. A beautiful, slow paced, casual and unique location that is Australia's best kept secret. The combination of rainforest, wildlife, golden beaches, and tropical islands virtually unspoilt, is quite rare.

Great location
The house is well designed, ideal for a family gathering or group of friends. While the weather wasn't kind to us, we enjoyed a lot of time by the pool, looking out to Dunk Island. Lots of nice small touches including games, books and the kitchen is very well stocked with almost everything you would need (only thing missing from our point of view was a blender). Great area, very quiet. Big walks along the beach were amazing.

Prefect spot
The house was amazing with the best views of the beach and very spacious The bedrooms having their own air conditioning was great because not everyone want to use it . We would definitely recommend this property for a relaxing holiday especially with the pool which we used every day Sonja made it very easy with her communication
