About this property

The Pines, Horseshoe Bay

The Pines is located in a quiet residential street and is not suitable for groups or parties of any kind.

The Pines is an architecturally designed, multi-award winning tropical home. Its unique design has been featured in numerous magazines and it gives a holiday with a difference:

Enjoy the smell of the natural bush and pine trees. Delight in the wide overhangs that bring the outside in, but which protect you from the excesses of the sun. Shower with no shower curtains or closed in cubicles.

Parents, close off the master bedroom area and soak in a bath on the patio deck with no bathroom walls to close you in.The house has been specifically designed for the tropics and minimizes the need for air-conditioning. Although all bedrooms are air-conditioned, excellent flow through ventilation and ceiling fans, in combination with a number of factors, negates the need for them in the rest of the house.The ocean and magical beaches are only a short drive away.

Bedding Configuration
Bedroom 1: 1 x Queen Bed
Bedroom 2: 1 x Queen Bed
Bedroom 3: 2 x Single Beds

Property specific note :

Beautiful tree house escape
We had a wonderful time at the Pines and we will definitely be back. Backing onto the national park was a real highlight as we loved the wildlife. The house is fantastic and perfect for a young family, although could do with a bit of TLC around some of the fixings and blinds. Overall experience was great and can’t wait to go back.

Quiet and spacious. Designed for maximum air flow. A short drive to horseshoe bay. A small amount of maintenance required in the bedrooms. Otherwise it was great.

The villa lacks maintenance
The architecture is very beautiful, the location is ideal if you have a vehicule but the exteriors are neglected and the furniture has aged a lot. We won't be returning

Loved this property.
Just had a wonderful stay at the Pines, lovely house, really well laid out. The high quality kitchen fitout made meals a breeze. Nestled among fragrant pines and maximising the cool breeze this house was wonderfully comfortable. We would definitely book it again.
