About this property

The Shack Noosa Heads

This 3 bedroom beach house has been designed by one of Australia's young gun architects to offer a unique and secluded retreat in close proximity to the famed beaches and conservation areas of Noosa Heads. The house has now been featured in the publications "A Place in the Sun", " 21st Century Architecture- Beach Houses", "Monument" and "Best Abodes" and was awarded a commendation in the Regional Architecture Awards.

Located in Settler's cove, overlooking a conservation area bordering noosa sound but only seconds from the shops of noosa junction and a few minutes drive to either hastings street or sunshine beach.

The design captures every breeze on the enormous entertaining deck which floats above the ground providing tree top viewing of the the spectacular native birdlife (which like to visit guests) and other wildlife. At night, the external lighting transforms the architectural features of the house and surrounding vegetation.

The house has been designed to cater for quiet family groups who want a holiday house that complements the ebb and flow of a relaxed beach holiday but can also provide that special destination for lasting memories.

So Close to Everything

The house has been sited to take maximum advantage of retained vegetation and the nearby conservation areas. The adjacent walking/bicycle path can have you to the public jetty fronting noosa sound in a few brief minutes and further on to hasting street and noosa main beach and the national park or to Noosaville and the sunday markets and riverfront restaurants.

The house features a luxury kitchen, dining room, powder room, living area/sleepout and entertainment deck under a spectacular vaulted ceiling with the master bedroom/ensuite on the same level.

At ground level there is a second bathroom, laundry and separate toilet with a guest room and bunkroom and private decks and verandahs and gas BBQ.

All finishes have been carefully selected to make cleaning a breeze.

Had a great stay.
Mike was a great host and replied to all our questions quickly. The house was very clean and well equipped. The footpath almost opposite the driveway made the stroll into Noosa Junction a breeze. We loved checking out the wide range of cafes and bars - IMO better than Hastings St. A great place to explore!

Fantastic Place!
A fantastic house with a great layout ideal for families. Far enough from the hustle and bustle but close enough to walk to the beach. Great kitchen with all the facilities and an amazing deck to sit and relax. Very close to Noosa Junction shops, cafes and restaurants. Would definitely recommend and would stay here again for sure.

Lovely accommodation
Overall, we had a great stay at The Shack. Like another reviewer mentioned, it is probably better suited to families with older children, as younger ones may find it a bit tricky to navigate the stairs and sleeping downstairs while parents sleep upstairs. We managed just fine with all of us sleeping downstairs in the two bedrooms.We should have asked about the wifi as we were not sure it was available to us - perhaps a note on the fridge so guests are informed about the wifi and how they can access it.

Really lovely holiday home!
We really loved the space @ the shack, esp. since we were travelling with grandparents & kids. The separate living space was gd & bunk bed was great for the kids! The kitchen was huge & fantastic for cooking. Superb location. Only tricky part was trying to park the car as slope is steep & it was hard to see in the dark without much lighting.

Awesome place
Nice place, awesome spot away from the rat race. Would be better suited for families with older children (perfect for teenagers) as the 2nd & 3rd bedrooms are down stairs which you have to walk "outside" to get too.

Beautiful house
The house is quite new and perfectly located minutes from Noosa Junction and 15 minute walk from Hastings Street. I would highly recommend a family or group staying here. Plenty of room and separate sleeping areas upstairs and downstairs.

Thank-you for providing a beautiful house in a great location. The home has a spectacular outdoor area overlooking a forrest, the kitchen and dining area also provides a great entertaining space. The communicatiom was excellent between the host and ourselves and we were even granted a late check out due to our fligjt being in the evening. We will be sure to return to the shack if in Noosa again! Thank-you!

We loved the location - we loved the layout - we loved the private and relaxed feel the home provided our family holiday. The seperate quaters of the 'bungalow' was perfect as a retreat for my husband and I whilst the children and grandchildren enjoyed the rest of the home to holiday in. A perfect plae for entertainment and very well appointed with plenty of crokery and cutlery and bedding.Thankyou for a lovely holiday escape from our otherwise hectic lifestyle! We will return for another holiday most definately!

This property is very comfortable and conveniently located. We walked to the grocery store and a few other shops in less than 5 minutes. Walking to the beach is about 15 minutes. The property itself is nicely appointed with all you will need during your stay. The kitchen has all the appliances and tools needed for cooking a nice meal. The bed and bedding was nice and comfortable. The best part of the property is the entertainment deck where you can relax in the shade on the comfortable patio furniture and listen to the many birds singing in the trees. I would definitely recommend this property!

This is a beautiful, tranquil property a short walk from the shops. Beach a little further, but walkable. The deck area works really well to relax in the evenings looking out at the tree canopy. All mod cons included. Bathroom stylish.

The Shack is a lovely property in a great location. It is walking distance to the shops, restaurants and cafes of Noosa Junction. Hastings Street and the Noosa beaches were a hit with the family as was nearby Eumundi market. Local wildlife is great and we found a koala in the reserve adjacent to the property. We loved the bird life and quiet surroundings. We would hope to return to The Shack in the near future. Thank you for sharing The Shack with us!

A really lovely house and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Nice and close to shops to top up on food, and we walked each day to the beach with two kids - it took about 20 minutes and was a nice start and finish to a day on the sand. The house has all you could wish for and more, was very clean and thoughtfully designed. Our hosts were very friendly and had the house opened up and ready when we arrived. Thank you Mike and Sim for sharing The Shack with us.

What a delightful house! The perfect spot for relaxation, good food and great times. I only wish I had such a user friendly kitchen and A-grade appliances in my own home. Bathrooms were also well finished, top class fixtures. Above all the outdoor deck / living area made the place ultra special. The ultimate space for beautiful sunsets, lazy mornings and evening chats. The Shack was spotless when we arrived and we were made to feel welcome from the outset. The best holiday home we have ever rented in Australia. Highly recommended, can't wait to go back!
