Only a hopeless romantic could have dreamed this into existence: a timber villa, perched on a bush-clad hill overlooking the sea with a deck to watch the sun set and the moon rise to the sound of waves lapping the beach below. Seemingly suspended above the ocean near quiet Wye River, The Deck House is a stunningly executed retreat filled with light and colour – perfect for fellow hopeless romantics, dreamers and water lovers.
No walls obstruct the view from the chic open-plan interior, and a cathedral ceiling expands the sense of spaciousness. The timber flooring resonates with the surrounding bush (play ‘I Spy' for koalas in the trees outside) and the aqua trim and furnishings speak of sea and sky. You can lounge in front of the fire, enjoy a drink on the deck, prepare lunch in the fully equipped kitchen or lie back in bed. And, everywhere, is the glorious view.
There is plenty to do: swim on Wye River's patrolled beach below, stroll down to the local hotel for a drink, explore tracks in the hills or travel one of the world's great coastal drives. But you'll always return to The Deck House for its peace and dreamy indulgences. Location: 155km or 2½ hours southwest of Melbourne. Melway 911 A12. HEMA RA 45 J11.
