St Tropez 12: Haven with Water View & Pool

The name St Tropez conjures images of pleasure found and leisure enjoyed. And so it is at this chic apartment complex that shares a title with the French peninsula. Enveloped by lush greenery that frames desirable water views, the two-bedroom apartment takes its cues from nature, with soothing neutrals, earthy textures and warm timber. The effect is one of invitation and welcome.

As befits its location, the apartment has two undercover terraces – the main furnished to take visitors from a sun-washed breakfast to nightcaps under a star-filled sky. The second terrace runs off one of the bedrooms, which are grouped towards the back of the property. This ensures privacy from the open-plan design that seamlessly melds kitchen, dining and living.

With a communal pool and deck whetting the appetite, there are myriad ways to enjoy the water. Go for a swim, explore the adjacent canal or wander to nearby Main Beach. Curving in a golden arc, it’s a panorama to which no pictures can do justice – but you’ll take them anyway, whether you stretch out on a towel, swim or wander to the nearby surf break.

If all things green are more your fancy, explore lush Noosa National Park, while the retail and restaurants of Hastings St and Gympie Terrace invite visitors to settle in, order a taste of local flavours and watch the world go by. It’s a simple pleasure in a part of the world where filling a day how you see fit is the ultimate luxury.
