Pandanus Retreat

Guest Rating:

Sleeps 6, 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms. No pets allowed.

Point Lookout, Queensland 4183 Australia

Immerse yourself in natural timbers, polished concrete and lush greenery, in this award-winning designer home – and embrace its relaxed beach vibe the moment you arrive.

Cleverly designed to capture the cool sea breeze, Pandanus Retreat boasts numerous, flexible indoor and outdoor living spaces. Wander out onto the treetop deck for your morning coffee, rinse off sea-salt under the open-air hot/cold pebble shower, or laze in the sun-drenched, north-facing garden.

Inside, you’ll find room for everyone to unwind. Three spacious bedrooms (1 King, 2 Queen), each with its own ensuite, offer privacy and peace. Gather in one of the two welcoming living areas, share meals from the fully equipped kitchen, soak in the full-sized bath, or simply stretch out beneath the slow-turning ceiling fans and let time slip away.

Just a short stroll to beaches, the Gorge Walk, and the famous Straddie marine life, its central location places you within easy striking distance of shops, cafes and public transport – and surrounds you with Kookaburra calls, Kangaroos and Curlews.

Linen supplied and beds made for your arrival.

    Edith G from Brisbane, QLD recommends this vacation rental

    This holiday home is the best beach holiday retreat I’ve ever experienced. I booked this retreat for my family (for the first time, I assumed there would be air con, but after payment I realised this wasn’t the case). My mistake was a blessing in disguise because this place was just perfect. The downstairs area was great for getting sand off with the outdoor shower and hose. Downstairs was perfect for my brother and his girlfriend to have their own space with bathroom and living room. This allowed my partner and I, and my mum, to share upstairs. The private ensuites were a luxury for all of us. The open air design was beautifully refreshing! Great, big table for games and meals too, as well as a nice upstairs patio. Great spot overall!

    Great location, however the property isn’t suitable for pets as advertised- as there is a sign inside the property sayings pets are to stay outside, the yard is overgrown and not fully secure.
    The property is regularly cleaned but needs some maintenance and a deep clean to remove grease from the kitchen and dust from the fans etc.

    Property condition:

    Jillian P from Seventeen Mile Rocks, QLD recommends this vacation rental

    Great location & an interestingly designed house. Could hear the ocean which was wonderful. Lovely upstairs deck area. However the upstairs lounge furniture was old and uncomfortable, two v small TV’s, v little bench space in the kitchen and the barbecue was dirty. The bedrooms/bathrooms were great however mattresses need replacing as they dip in the middle.
    Not sure I would want to stay there in winter given large areas with fly screens (or none) and no shutters to shut out the wind/breezes.
    The bedrooms and bathrooms were clean.

    Handy location; the amenities were great. Perfect design for three adult couples with bathroom for each three bedrooms. Loved the island decor, spaciousness and room for lunch visitors.
    As another reviewer said, it’d be good to get rid of the large weed tree out front and trim the growth in general. Some furniture getting tired. Wildlife wonderful - koala up the corner, curfews and kangaroos in the street.

    a guest from QLD, NA does not recommend this vacation rental.

    Stay was ok, the place was described as pet friendly however when we got there it requested that the pet stay outside all the time - this is NOT pet friendly. The bathrooms were spick and span as were the bedrooms but the place needs a thorough deep clean (sticky cupboard handles, light swtiches, bowls/plates had dead bugs in them) and tidy up outside. i was not impressed for the price we paid. We have an investment property and if this place was ours - we would not present it to guests as is.

    Rainer B from ELWOOD, VIC recommends this vacation rental

    Pandanus is a super cool, Indo inspired, designer beach house that exudes relaxation the minute you walk in the door. With a dining space set in a ‘breezeway’ to catch the seabreeze, and a covered balcony amongst the trees for morning coffee or an evening bbq and drinks, this house is perfect for a Straddie beach holiday. Beaches are all just a short stroll away, and you will spend your time surrounded by polished concrete, natural timbers, Kookaburra calls and Kangaroos. Can’t wait to get back...

    Andy F recommends this vacation rental

    We love the house as we have stayed there three or four times. We can see there are a couple of maintenance issues but we dont really care. Bathroom door knob is loose etc... Only thing that bugs me is the Camphor Laurel taking over the front yard and crowding out the original landscaping. Its a noxious weed and can spread a lot of seed and should be removed to allow the Frangepani to advance and provide screening as intended. Also we dont even use the barbecue because it was really dirty last time and i dont want to have to clean up someone elses mess!

    Ali W from Dudley, NSW recommends this vacation rental

    We have stayed at Pandanus Retreat twice now, and we absolutely love it. It is a low-key island style house that is the perfect place to relax, unwind and get on island time. Its design is unusual, but we love its character and charm that is so unique to Stradbroke Island. It is in a quiet location that is close to everything Point Lookout has to offer. Walk to the shops, cafes, dog friendly beach and the gorge walk. Beds are clean and comfortable, kitchen is basic but has everything you need. Kangaroos hopping past the house daily. Great access and driveway, we could park our car and boat here easily and safely. We will definitely book again.

    Unfortunately our stay was not like the first time we stayed here. Clean was poorly done, with the place not in the best shape. Home is a little tired now, needs some maintenance. Finally, it is simply not suitable for the cooler months or winter - insufficient heating and open spaces are freezing. Really needs investments in air conditioning or larger heaters in each room for winter months, hardly liveable otherwise - we had to resort to collecting the little heaters from each room and populating 4 of them in the lounge room for comfort then moving each to a bed room for sleeping. Not acceptable for the money.

    Kim W from N/A, OTHER recommends this vacation rental

    This is our second stay at Pandanus Retreat this year.
    We love this Architectural beach house.
    And will be staying again with friends and family.
    The bushy aspect is the perfect to relax after the beach.
    We love the layout with lots of relaxing spaces for reading and chilling.
    Plus great communal areas for sharing meals and games.
    But before we return please could you give this property a thorough spring �� clean.
    All surfaces need dusting and sugar soap wash down.
    Sorry . . You can’t just rely on your change over cleans.
    Also a bit disappointed with Ray White lack of communication and attitude when the hot water system wasn’t working.
    Yes they got it ‘temporarily’ working with a few hours.
    But we had the inconvenience of No water pressure and we had to stagger showers and use.
    Unfortunately we were not informed that the new system would not be installed in our visit until we chased them up.
    No apologies for the inconvenience. Or an offer for a free night stay for the 10 day stay inconvenience.
    I manage an air bnb and if there is a maintenance problem I always offer some sort of compensation . . . Late check out . . . And extra nights stay . . . Or a least a bottle of wine or chocolates with a sorry card.
    Hopefully next time we return they will have hot water system fixed.

    Loved everything about this property. Very cleverly built to enjoy open air and cosy spaces. Close to everything. Contained everything you could need for a great couples or family retreat (BYO booze and food of course). It should be noted that is property is one of 2 on the same block so it did lack in privacy at times.

    The property is located extremely well, close to everything Pt Lookout has to offer. Everything was with in walking distance.
    The bathrooms are all modern, the furniture was excellent with a couple of wow pieces.
    The house was equipped very well, with coffee pod machine, sandwich press just to name a few, plus the usual kettle & toaster. Everything you need to prepare meals.
    I would recommend this property, we called it the Tree House.
    We had a very enjoyable stay.
