The Beach House at Kingfisher Bay

Fraser Island is a spiritual place regarded as K’gari – a place of paradise – and this wonderful property resonates with its sacred surrounds.

The Beach House at Kingfisher Bay is a multi-million dollar property that stands above the rest at Kingfisher Bay Resort’s exclusive residential enclave for a few reasons: it is the closest house to both the resort and the beach (so you won’t need a car) and it has uninterrupted views of the World Heritage-listed forest, water and beach.

This is actually two homes, each set on two levels. You can take one or both to cater from six up to 16 guests and both share equally in the waterfront views. The generous appointments provide all the comfort and style one expects of a premium holiday home, with carved stone basins, full-size bathtubs boasting water views and granite kitchen benchtops.

Expansive timber decks on both levels make for the perfect vantage point to spot whales passing by in season. Brides take note: this is the only property that overlooks the resort’s very romantic beach wedding ceremony area.

Guests have free use of the resort pools and playgrounds and can dine at the restaurants and bars. It’s just a few sandy steps from the house to join a whale cruise or island tour and the owners offer a concierge booking service for guests.
