Waterfront Retreat | Private Jetty, Kayaks & Walk

Wake up to tranquil canal views, enjoy sunset drinks by the water and step straight onto your private jetty. Guests love the peaceful setting, easy indoor–outdoor living and how relaxed and spacious the home feels — ideal for families, couples or a laid-back coastal escape. Located in sought-after Wannanup, close to beaches, cafés and walking paths. Pets welcome on request. Guests consistently comment on the peaceful canal outlook, generous space and relaxed holiday feel.

We are happy to help in any way but prefer to keep most of our messaging on platform as we are often not able to answer the phone if driving or in meetings. If you do need to call, please text as this is the quickest way to get a response. In case of emergency please call 000.

We give our guests space, but we are just a message away - do not hesitate to reach out to us with any concerns or questions you may have. We are in the office Mon-Fri 9AM to 5PM. Outside of these hours, we will get back to you as soon as we can.

Located just a 3-minute walk from the beach, local bus routes, and the nearby primary school, this villa offers a peaceful retreat only a short drive south of Mandurah.

Before check-in, guests complete a quick ID and card verification via our Guest App - similar to hotel check-in — to ensure safety and peace of mind for all. A $750 security hold (required by our insurer) is placed and automatically released after your stay once house rules are confirmed and no damage is noted. Check-in details will only be sent if this has been completed.


Wake up to sparkling canal views and step straight onto your private jetty. Paddle at sunrise, fish with the kids, or enjoy sunset drinks by the water — all just a short walk to the beach and local cafés.
