About this property

Bougainvillea: Beachside Luxury at The Drift

Summary:

This gorgeous waterfront residence enjoys a coveted address right on Williams Esplanade, footsteps from Palm Cove’s best restaurants and day spas, and perfectly positioned to discover the Great Barrier Reef and Kuranda Village, nestled among World Heritage rainforest. Dine alfresco while taking in panoramic ocean views straight from your balcony, cool off in the lagoon swimming pool, cook up a feast in the full kitchen or on the BBQ and relax in spacious, beautifully-presented living zones.



The Space:

Setting the benchmark for premium living in Palm Cove, this stunning apartment benefits from direct access to the palm-fringed beach and Coral Sea. Take in the cool coastal breezes from the expansive balcony, which comes set for an alfresco meal with a BBQ on hand to grill up some fresh produce.



Stepping inside, the living and dining area is open plan. It flows to the balcony, creating a seamless transition between indoors and out and bathing the space in beautiful natural light. A state-of-the-art kitchen makes it easy to prepare meals at home, with a breakfast bar and large central dining table for guests to gather. There are plush sofas to relax at the end of the day and a generous smart TV to create movie nights at home.



Three bedrooms cater to adult travellers and families with children 13 years or over and are immaculately presented, for a good night’s sleep.

The Condo is not suitable for infant or children under 12 years. Air-conditioning and ceiling fans throughout keeps things comfortable no matter what season you are travelling. The master suite contains a king-sized bed, its own TV and opens to the balcony. It benefits from a sumptuous ensuite bathroom with a spa bathtub and double vanity. The second bedroom and third bedroom both come with a king-sized bed that can split into two king singles upon request, along with plenty of storage space for your belongings. The modern main bathroom highlights a spacious shower, while internal laundry facilities including a washing machine and dryer, as well as an additional powder room, add to your everyday convenience.



The apartment comes with secure, free parking on site.
