Super Cute Beach House

This property was a pure delight to walk into. Loved the vintage touches with the fixtures. Everything you need for a relaxing holiday is in this spacious house. I would stay again. Had a ball on the tandem bike and if it’s raining you can play Pac-Man , Darts or relax in the Massage chair! Close to the beach and local cafes.

Peaceful Toogoom

Situated in the northern end of Toogoom, this peaceful house sits on a large dog-friendly garden. Goody's cafe is diagonally across the road upon a lovely estuary. A short pleasant walk takes you to a small beach which is dog friendly at various times of the day. The water is perfect for swimming. The house is well equipped and spacious.

Fantastic place!

Amazing property at a great location. Host was very accommodating and communication was great. Just unfortunate for us with construction next door and noise from 6.30am until late each day due to decking being installed, but host was happy to provide us with options when we brought this to their attention. Thankyou for having us and sharing your amazing property with our family.

Just what we needed

We recommend the property, hosts and location highly. It is a large and beautiful house, tastefully decorated and very comfortable. It provided much more than we needed and being just across the local cafe made it super easy for great coffees and meals. The beach walks during low tide were spectacular and just what we needed.

Great for place for a family

Its one of the few places we have stayed where the property is better than described. The location is perfect - 1 min walk from the beach; the house has EVERYTHING and more - there's an arcade machine, games etc; the three bedrooms are a good size and the beds are super comfy. Its 15 min from Hervey Bay and if you prefer a little peace and quiet, Toogoom is a much better option than staying in Hervey Bay.

Tranquility in Toogoom

We loved our stay here. Just over the road from the beach. Small problem with getting in, but that was rectified so quickly. We loved how the property had one big ‘adult’s retreat’ upstairs with its own kitchen and bathroom and then further bedrooms downstairs. We also loved breakfast at Goodys before we left. Thank you Mark for a wonderful stay. It was very special to stay there with my sister and nephew visiting from the UK. We’d love to come back with some friends

Fantastic!

Beautiful property. Very clean, comfortable and spacious. Perfect for my family of 5 and 2 dogs. Loved the styling and details. Lots of games provided was a bonus. Great garden front and back, providing a safe space for the fur babies and kids. Really close to the water and so good to have use of the kayaks. Really peaceful area. Wish we had stayed for longer.

Great dog and people holiday

All four adults plus 2 dogs really enjoyed our short holiday. The dogs love the beach at low tide, as well as enjoying the property yard. The humans appreciated the dog bath for cleaning them after the beach fun! The adults enjoyed the arcade games and hubby set new high score in Galaga. 83-year old even went kayaking as it was easy to get the kayak to the water on the trolley. The house has lovely character and is as seen in the photos. Prompt and friendly communications with hosts. All round great stay and we would recommend this property. Scott and Lisa

Perfection…

We honestly felt like we were holidays the moment we turned the corner to sight this incredible property. It’s a really special place with gorgeous craftsmanship & details throughout. The lovely hosts haven’t forgotten a single thing & we absolutely loved every minute. It’s so well located with a wonderful cafe & seaside restaurant just across the road, a very short stroll or ride to the swimming beach or lake to kayak. The property was so well styled with great inclusions, our son loved the games room & the tandem bike was a hit too, we’re really looking forward to returning in summer, Highly {highly!} recommend this property.

The ultimate home away from home!

A lot of care has been taken to ensure this home offers everything that you could possibly need for your stay. Beautifully styled with so many visual delights everywhere you look. The kitchen has everything on offer that you could need. The bathrooms are stylish and super clean. Very relaxing parent retreat area upstairs with a large deck- perfect it have your meals on and enjoy the view. Really large yard and our fur baby had loads of fun and space to run. Kids loved the games room which entertained them for hours (parents too) with the arcade games and dart board. Massive TV (also in 2 of the bedrooms) perfect for movie nights. Had a great time with the canoes in the protected beach area out front. The trolleys provided made it easy to transport them to the waters edge. Perfect home in a perfect and tranquil beach on the Fraser Coast. Check in was super easy thanks to our friendly hosts well described process and open communication. Have stayed in many holiday homes and this is up with the best. Highly recommend and hope to return in the future.

This was a super clean, fun beach house with lots of amenities and cool furnishings - and Mark was a great host and quick to reply to questions and share info. Great for our pup too. The house has cool entertaining areas and some quirky designs like vintage doors and a hidden laundry! The kitchen has loads of appliances, even a slow cooker so we were able to do a lot of fun cooking. There is lots of fenced yard area (we loved playing darts, big couches to relax on, dining on the deck and the air con was fabulous when we needed it - in any of the rooms or living areas. It's just a few metres walk to the beach and boat ramp and the two restaurants and an easy bike ride around town. The only thing we wanted for was perhaps an inside table to play games and dine on when the weather turned bad (it rained for a day or two) and we couldn't really eat on the outside deck like usual. And because of the rain and the proximity to the creek, the midgees came out in droves, so please be aware and have insect repellant or avoid being out in the yard in the morning or dusk as they can get quite bad. We just unfortunately struck a period without wind and post-rain which made it worse. If you have a boat, the boat ramp is just across the road. Apart from the midgees, it's a great part of the world and a fun place to explore!

Villa Sunshine … Can’t wait to go back!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Villa Sunshine in Toogoom, and I can’t recommend it enough! From the moment we arrived, we felt right at home. The house itself was cozy, clean, and well-equipped, with everything we needed for a comfortable stay (including bikes, kayaks and stand up paddle board). The living spaces were spacious and stylish, with a great mix of modern amenities and a relaxed coastal vibe. What really stood out, though, was the location. Toogoom is an absolute gem—quiet, peaceful, and just a short stroll to the beach and it has two cafes; Salties and Goodies. Whether you’re into morning walks along the water, fishing from the jetty, enjoying the local wildlife, or simply relaxing in the downstairs entertainment area, the natural beauty of the area is unparalleled. For more hustle and bustle, Hervey Bay is only 20 minutes down the road, but there is a Foodlands half way along the road if you need to duck out for some groceries. The owners were incredibly friendly and accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed while also respecting our privacy. If you're looking for a peaceful getaway with easy access to nature, this house in Toogoom is the perfect choice. I can’t wait to come back!

This is a beautiful place, carefully managed with all the details considered and taken care of. The place is beautiful and has so many areas in for you to escape to and have a peaceful holiday, or you can go down to the games room and have some fun. The Pac Man arcade machine was a blast, along with the ring toss, darts, and other games. Watching some TV with Stan and Netflix included on a big high-quality screen was amazing to. Great location with nice long peaceful walks, and a great restaurant nearby (Salty Squid). This was a great place to stay, and was luxurious, fun, and peaceful, and exceeds expectations.
