Soundhaven, Apartment 4

Sparkling waves that crest across the backdrop of a cloudless day. Bushland calls from Mother Nature’s lush surrounds. The visual creativity and indulgence of five-star dining. Each of these attractions on their own could draw holidaymakers from across the globe. But in Noosa they seamlessly combine for a slice of paradise like no other… and this apartment is your entrée to the excitement and indulgence.

Sitting within a boutique complex of only four, the two-bedroom apartment on the top floor is an ideal gathering spot for groups of friends and family seeking a much-anticipated, or spontaneous, getaway that won’t break the budget. Refurbished and refurnished, its bright colours, open-plan living spaces and timber accents ensure a feeling of warmth and invitation. But with so much to do, you won’t be spending much time at home.

Nestled within the waterfront community of beautiful Noosa Sound, the apartment is within easy reach of iconic Hastings St – just a 600m walk, drive or bike ride away. Here, the phrase ‘spoiled for choice’ has never been more apt, whether your fancy lies with shopping in specialty boutiques, dining in casual or classic style, people watching or even just promenading.

To up the action, head to nearby Noosa National Park, where the network of trails and paths is suitable for all ages and fitness levels, from a gentle meander to a hike that gets the heart pumping. Equally enchanting in its delights is picturesque Main Beach, which again offers something for everyone, whether you want to claim a patch of sand with your family, catch a wave at the surf breaks, take a walk along the shallows or go hunting for shells.

Whatever you decide, there’s a true sense of serenity in letting the hours slip by as the sun rises and sets and the realities of daily life simply ebb away. When you’ve had your fill, the cosy charm of your home away from home beckons, perhaps to enjoy a cooling swim in the complex pool or an icy cocktail as the departing sun paints the sky in beautiful shades of orange and pink. It’s a beautiful scene you can relive in your dreams. Then tomorrow, you can do it all over again!
