About this property
Classic beachfront shack in Malua Bay - voted top 52 stays in Australia
Featured in Qantas Travel Mag, Broadsheet, Good Weekend and Time Out, this classic beach shack has been lovingly updated throughout, combining the laid-back feel of the original home with modern design and comforts. You can’t help but relax here. Glimpses of the turquoise water filter in through almost every window. Meander down the private stairs to the beach and you’re in the water.
The house is walking distance to local cafes and restaurants, or a 2-minute drive into town for groceries.
