About this property
..Tropical Retreat..
Come relax in our one bedroom, 4 bed retreat. Enjoy your morning coffee in the sun with a view of all our beautiful palms. Fully self contained with a well stocked kitchen for home cooked meals. A big outdoor bbq with table and chairs is supplied so you can enjoy the long summer evenings. Only a 3 minute drive to the harbour entrance and a 10minute drive to the famous 90 mile beach. With plenty of parking for a boat and the boat ramp only a five minute drive away it is perfect for all the keen fishermen.
