Watching the Sunrise over the ocean is a thrill to behold and Sunset from the beach at Monte's Reef Resort or Gloucester Eco Resort is something not to be missed. One of the rare places in Australia where you can see the Sun set over the ocean. Photographers heaven where the bird life will keep you captivated. The space Access is via a small set of steps at the front of the house. For wheelchair access the house can be entered through the garage. All bedrooms are large with King, Queen & 2 Long Singles (zipped together they make a King.) The combined lounge/dining area also has a Queen size Sofa Bed for children only. All linen is provided. The kitchen is fully equipped with utensils, cooking equipment, dishwasher (powder satchet's provided) along with wash cloths, detergent, tea towels and rubbish bags. The laundry has a front loader washing machine and a dryer. Laundry powder satchet's are provided. The wall mounted clothes line is outside the laundry door. A 55" Smart TV is fitted to the wall of the lounge room, so if you wish to bring a hard drive or USB you can view your movies or music etc. Guest access The entire house is available to guests other than locked owner cupboards and one space in the double garage. At some times of the year the mandarin tree is in full fruit and we would love our guests to take advantage of this by enjoying these flavoursome treats. Interaction with guests As much as we would love to greet our guests personally, we live on the Sunshine Coast so are just a phone call away if our guests require advice on anything. We also have a handyman available at Hideaway Bay if needed. Other things to note 'IslandView' is on tank water so it is appreciated when our guests take this into consideration. 2 large rubbish bins are provided in the garage for items from the kitchen bin. These can be emptied at the Dingo Beach Refuse Tip approximately half way on the right to Dingo Beach. All rubbish is to be removed from the premises prior to vacating. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car required - Onsite parking options include a garage ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Ice maker - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - In-room accessibility - Wheelchair accessible (may have limitations) - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In the mountains - Near the sea - On the bay ### Things to do - Tennis - Birdwatching nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Sailing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkelling nearby - Swimming nearby - Water skiing nearby - Whale watching nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden - Unit size: 3,014 square feet ## Similar properties ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/115000000/114480000/114470300/114470254/19781368.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Golden Sands Beach House only a few steps to our beautiful Rose Bay Beach Bowen - Washing machine - Dryer - Air-conditioning 10 Exceptional 1 review [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-31&endDate=2026-02-01&selected=114470254&PinnedHotelID=114470254&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach nearby](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33570000/33567900/33567834/w638h425x7y4-e417373d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Wow!

So clean, spacious, comfortable, with all the necessaries to enjoy our stay. Liked the coastal theme of the house too, blended in beautifully with that stunning ocean view. We all spent many hours just relaxing on the patio enjoying that vista. It was very relaxing walking around the exposed sands and rock pools at low tide. Our young blue heeler loved it too. The perfect ocean view! The perfect getaway! ##### Diane T.

Hideaway Bay is a quiet, tranquil location where you can unwind completely. Shirley made us feel welcome (including our Bassets (Elroy & Phoebe) by providing immaculate & spacious accommodation, overlooking the Pacific ocean. We spent most of our time sitting on that expansive front patio, which is inviting from the moment you awake. The home is fully equipped, meaning that you only need to travel lightly to the destination. Highly recommend a visit. We will be returning many more times. ##### Stephen H.

Well presented, very spacious, comfortable, clean and well equipped holiday home that welcomes pets too. Lovely welcoming bottle of wine from the owners who were great to deal with. We loved the large deck area and spent many an hour there reading books and relaxing. Easy stroll to be beach which our spoodle loved, particularly at low tide. Options for casual meals/drinks at Dingo Beach and the two resorts on the other side of the hill which are well worth a visit at sunset. We were blessed with the most amazing weather during our stay too - not too hot and very little wind. Highly recommend for anyone looking to 'Get Away from it All' ##### GLENN C.

No hidden surprises other than the home , the inclusions in the home, and that view, all together they make for the most perfect holiday. Hydeaway Bay is a very hidden gem, definitely not for anyone that wants to be in the thick of it, but perfect for reconnecting with the beautiful state that we live in,and what it has to offer. Shirley thankyou so much from the bottom of our hearts. A holiday to remember. P.s thankyou for our turtle it is now at home . ##### donna f. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### donna f., Burpengary East 19 Oct 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### You can definitely go back We stayed here a year ago, and had, had a perfect holiday. Over the past 12 months much has happened in the world, and in that time we did stay at another Stayz dog friendly home complete with beach. Which was of course in our beautiful state Queensland. It was lovely but just not something. When planning our last holiday for the year,we kept going back to Hydeaway Bay and in the end booking two weeks. There was no other choice of holiday home for us, it was always going to be Island View Two glorious weeks later ..... We have said it and it is a thing , "You can't go back it will never be the same" well it wasn't the same, it was better. We we're at home the minute we stepped through the front door. So we now are planning a full month and we don't need to look any further than Island View. Shirley and Danny, we love your home away from home. Everyday was perfect no matter what we chose to do. That front deck! The views, the home comforts and Roomba who we call Robo Cop. The dog beach out front is great for furries (they explored every inch), and humans with crystal clear water ( it is a little rocky so just look and you can find a clear path)and occasional glimpses of a rather friendly green sea turtle. Thankyou for sharing your little piece of paradise see you in around 345 days. Donna and Fletcher, with the furries Ralph, Doug and Harvey xxxxxx ##### donna f.
