About this property
Lily Pad Retreat—A Luxe Poolside Parap Oasis
Discover paradise in this stunning home, featuring dual living areas, a grand kitchen, and ensuite bathrooms for every bedroom. Outdoors, enjoy al fresco dining with a BBQ by the pool, complete with seating for ten and sun loungers for ultimate relaxation. Just a short stroll from Parap Village, grab coffee or pick up fresh ingredients for a home-cooked meal. The beach and scenic cycling path on East Point Road are just a 15-minute walk away, while Darwin CBD is a quick 15-minute drive.
Step into this stunning retreat, where an exotic feature pond at the front door sets the tone for your escape into paradise. Natural stone textures guide you through the home, unveiling a spacious, open-plan living and dining area designed for relaxation and connection.
The heart of the home is bathed in natural light, with parallel glass sliding doors framing the main lounge and offering effortless access to the outdoor spaces. Sink into the plush couch for movie nights in front of the HD TV, or gather for a feast at the eight-seater timber dining table, complemented by extra seating at the breakfast bar for casual meals.
The grand kitchen, with its impressive layout, is well-equipped and seamlessly blends functionality with style. It features a generous butler's pantry and a large servery window opening to the patio and pool area—ideal for al fresco dining. Unwind with drinks on sun loungers or prepare the ultimate BBQ poolside, where seating for ten invites long, leisurely meals under the sun.
For added flexibility, a cosy TV room with a double sofa bed ensures ample sleeping options for everyone. The villa also includes two additional restrooms: a stylish powder room in the main house and a convenient toilet serving the pool area.
Three beautifully appointed bedrooms, each with its own private ensuite and walk-in shower, offer comfort and convenience. The ocean-inspired primary bedroom and serene green-hued second bedroom feature king-sized beds, while the third bedroom boasts split king singles that can be combined as a king bed on request. The primary suite includes a walk-in wardrobe, while the other two bedrooms are equipped with dedicated workspaces—perfect for remote work or quiet study.
A spacious laundry room and secure carport parking for two vehicles complete the home’s thoughtful amenities.
Due to local regulations, we can happily host you for up to 90 nights. Any bookings that exceed this duration will be cancelled by Vrbo.
Security cameras are installed on the front door, driveway and side entry gates.
For stays over 14 nights, please note the additional mandatory fees:
- Cleaning Bond: $400 to cover deep cleaning after your stay.
- Mid-Stay Cleaning: Provided every 2 weeks at $350 per cleaning.
Both fees must be paid in advance at least 14 days before check-in to avoid booking cancellation. Thank you.
