About this property

Carpe Diem - stylish and modern

* NOT available to Leavers or people under 21 years of age

Carpe Diem is a spacious and very beautiful holiday home that’s close to Yallingup’s famous beach and stunning coastline.

The two-storey property is really well equipped and offers something for everyone: a heated outdoor spa; guest wi-fi; separate TV room for the teenagers; fantastic kitchen; lawn for the little kids and even the option to bring along the family dog (one dog, small breeds only: permission only).

We love the treetop views, luxurious king bedroom suite and the comfort of air-conditioning in summer and the option to crank up the wood fire in winter.

The stylish open-plan living area plus two main bedrooms, shared bathroom and separate toilet are on the top level. The two remaining bedrooms, bathroom, toilet, laundry and separate TV/games room are on the bottom level.

Bedroom linen and bath towels are part of the linen pack. Please bring your own beach towels.

* PET BOOKINGS must have prior approval. Pet bookings incur a $50 charge per stay and only one small dog is allowed. You must obtain permission before bringing your pet and special terms and conditions will apply.

* STRICTLY NO PARTIES or functions at this family friendly home. Also, we do not accept Leavers bookings, student bookings and reserve the right to reject bookings from groups of young adults.

* An easy 35min drive to the Busselton Margaret River Airport.

* Enjoy the property’s six-person heated outdoor spa.
* Walk through the lush gardens of nearby Caves House Hotel to the beach at Yallingup (10 minutes).

Great place for a family break!
The house was well set out, clean, comfortable had everything we could want. Suited our extended family needs well with both adult and children spaces, 4 well appointed bedrooms and great cooking facilities. Washing machine and drier (essential for stays with kids) were easy to use and aporeciated. The hot tub was a nice addition - clean and ready to use! Location is great! Short walk down a dedicated pathway to the beach and to caves house. We will book again!

Yallingup birthday weekend
The property is in walking distance to Yallingup beach and well located to visit nearby wineries, beaches, caves. It has spacious living areas and bedrooms and the spa is a real bonus. The nearby Caves Hotel had music on Frida and Sat nights and is quite loud. Otherwise a perfect location

Great location & very well presented & comfortable house. Close to beach & pub & beautiful Yallingup Hotel gardens. All modern appliances in good working order. Fans in bedrooms need adjusting as they are loose & rattle @ higher speeds.
