The renowned tropical architects, Troppo, had a brilliant setting to work with when they created these stunning beachfront apartments, which overlook the Bay of Islands at Esperance. The result is a striking coastal style with a crisp, contemporary twist.

The brilliant design gives every apartment a bay view and a private courtyard garden. The apartments have full kitchens, a choice of bedroom configurations, spacious living areas for relaxed entertaining, cool terracotta  and timber floors, island-view balconies and soaring ceilings that flood in light.

From such stylish digs, the unspoilt natural wilderness of this magical region unfolds before you: the myriad stunning, white-crested beaches alone would take months to explore; finding a private spot without a footprint to be seen in the sand is possible in this uncrowded haven. Hire a mountain bike and go exploring, cruise the hundreds of islands offshore, spot whales and dolphins … or simply do nothing at all. These multi-award-winning apartments are your window to a pristine paradise – just allow enough time to soak it all up.
