About this property
Picnic House, luxurious tropical house
Picnic House is a luxuriuos and comfortable home, set amongst tropical gardens in a quiet street in Picnic Bay. This beautifully designed, split level home features high ceilings and louvered windows to catch the island breeze and let in an abundance of natural light.
2 bedrooms are within the main home. The separate bungalow at the rear of the property has a lovely covered veranda, third bedroom and ensuite which incorporates the laundry as well.
Air conditioning comfort in the main living room, master bedroom and retreat.
Relax by the pool, take a dip and enjoy your holiday to the maximum.
This tropical oasis really is island living at its best, with the beach, local restaurants and cafes, and the Picnic Bay Jetty and swimming enclosure only a short stroll away.
