The Breakers 4: Oceanfront Bliss

When the biggest decision you have to make in a day is what time to trade in your breathtaking ocean panorama for the physical pleasures of a swim or surf, you can be fairly sure that life doesn’t get any better. And so it is at this exceptional Noosa Heads property, where beauty is in both the things you can see and the experiences you can embrace.

Nestled in a small boutique complex of just three, the apartment occupies an enviable position in the heart of Hastings St, whose cosmopolitan mix of boutiques, cafes and restaurants lures crowds from all over the world. It’s an inviting precinct that puts the focus on choice, whether you want to browse and buy, discover the latest fashions or book in for a taste of the five-star dining that has turned local chefs into household names. And that’s not where the adventures end.

A short distance away, the beautiful environs of Noosa National Park extend an invitation to lace up your runners. Take a short walk, photograph the beautiful flora and fauna or find a quiet spot for a moment of meditation. There’s even the opportunity to tackle a longer circuit that works its way through to Sunshine Beach. Working up a thirst, a cold beverage at the popular surf club on the other end could be a fitting reward for your efforts.

If you’d rather stay a little closer to home, the apartment’s professional interior design lends itself to the joy that can be found or created in life’s low-key moments. Pastel tones flow through to luxurious natural materials, while a neutral and rustic colour palette is enlivened by tones of blue and green, drawing inspiration from the natural world outside.

The spacious floorplan is ideal for friends, families or a combination of the two, with plenty of spaces to retreat and recharge, before returning to the welcoming communal areas. Dine in style, whip up a feast in the modern kitchen or settle in for a games night in the open-plan living space.

You could also answer the call of the great outdoors on the expansive beachside balcony, where the only thing ‘hindering’ the unparalleled ocean views – stretching as far as Double Island Point – is the odd palm tree swaying in the breeze. With a barbecue and dining table set-up, it’s a tailor-made space for alfresco entertaining and enjoyment.

Later, you can claim a sun lounger and bask in the breeze as the moon casts its silvery spell on the waters below. Take a moment and appreciate how lucky you are to have found a slice of paradise that lets you embrace the panorama from above and then walk right onto centre stage. Heaven on earth.
