Hastings Park 3: Scenic Beachside Retreat | A/C | heated pool | staffed reception

The beauty of a holiday is it can be anything you want it to be. A much-needed getaway that puts the focus on family time. A weekend of fun with long-time friends. The chance to carve out some welcome couple time outside the confines of regular life. It’s about laughter and leisure, privacy and pleasure, sunny days and moonlit nights. And at this luxury Noosa Heads apartment, that’s only the very beginning of your story.

Positioned up one end of iconic Hastings St, the apartment is part of a boutique complex whose serene environs are surrounded by a thriving canopy of lush green. Nestled up the side of a hill it enjoys not only a breath-taking panorama over sand and sea but also easy access to the area’s most iconic attractions. It’s a chance to live your holiday wish list and cross off all those experiences you’ve never even thought of.

The communal heart of the three-bedroom property is the myriad living areas that seamlessly link the indoors and out. Downstairs, the main open-plan area is cleverly zoned, from a cosy one-on-one setting oriented around the spectacular views to a spacious lounge area, dining zone with plenty of room for groups and a kitchen built to encourage all hands on deck.

These seamlessly flow out to multiple north-facing balconies – incorporating an outdoor dining area and barbecue – that offer a spectacular window on the days as they evolve from morning sunshine to silvery moonlight.

A balcony off the spacious master bedroom is also an invitation to bask in the warmth and beauty of the great outdoors, as is the complex’s inground pool, which is heated year-round for guest comfort. Yet it’s hard to resist the lure of Mother Nature and modern lifestyle, which lie just a short stroll away.

For those with a love of shopping, people watching and eating, the delights of Hastings St are yours to explore. Think forward fashion, beautiful jewellery, unique homewares and restaurants that capture the coastal lifestyle on a plate, in menus ranging from family friendly to five-star. Whatever your tastes, this buzzing, vibrant and cosmopolitan precinct delivers.

A few metres beyond, Noosa’s Main Beach brings to life a natural panorama that’s admired the world over and dazzling in close proximity. With soft golden sands and crystal clear water, it’s a stretch of beach with a welcome for everyone, whether you want to set up a family base for sandcastles, tackle the surfing breaks with your board or simply wade in up to the ankles for a welcome dose of cool. Other nearby attractions include Noosa National Park, and the likes of Gympie Tce, which is but a short drive away and is home to an acclaimed stretch of dining overlooking the river.

Whatever you decide to do, just be sure to take your camera. This holiday is your story to write after all and a picture, as they say, tells 1000 words.
