The balcony stretches the length of the house enabling the breathtaking water views to be enjoyed from almost every room in the house. Relax on the balcony from your many vantage points and choice of dining table, sunlounges, deck chairs or even the big comfy lounge chairs.

The pool on the lower deck is simply stunning.  Relax on the sunlounges or even in the hammock.  You wont have to wander too far for a cold drink – there is a bar fridge by the pool! Very handy!

If you feel like a sunbake in private away from the pool, there is a separate decking with even more sunlounges for you to relax on.

Inside you will find a very spacious and open home. Impressive living areas with timber floors throughout. The lounge has a state of the art entertainment system and flat screen TV. Enjoy the extensive book and DVD libraries. Dine inside at the 10 seater dining table. This area opens out to the bbq area at the rear of the house. Perfect for entertaining.

Thank you for a most wonderful property. We did not want to leave!! The Longhouse was simply fantastic; a better equipped or positioned property I could not imagine. Many thanks again; we will be recommending this property and your service to others.

Sincerely

Honestly, the house is worth more than $1200 a night! We holiday in different houses at least 5 times a year paying almost the same but nowhere near the standard of the longhouse.  NOTHING BUT THE BEST!! The labels on everything may not seem like a big deal to many but for us it cut out probably half a day looking for everything! Perfect idea. I have even written down the brand of knives so I can purchase my own set! I have never wanted to prepare food so much in my life.

Also I am not sure if you are aware but when we did venture into town and mention we were staying at the long house we were told by several workers that its THE BEST house ON THE ISLAND!! We were even stopped when getting out of the buggies and asked about the house. Yes, we were famous for a week and loved it.

I wouldn't normally send a thank you as you get what you pay for, but this time we got so much more. Once again, THE BEST holiday we have been on. Absolute luxury! and we will definitely promote it. A big thanx to Kristie aswell! She certainly recommended perfectly for us.

Cheers

“The Long House” - Simply spectacular. 4 days were not long enough to explore all the delights the house had to offer. We had a ball and wanted for nothing. Special thanks to Barry, he really set the foundation for us to enjoy the house and special thanks for allowing us enjoy the house up until our flight was due to depart, those little touches really make the difference.

“Whitsunday Holidays” – 10/10. Thanks to all the gals at Whitsunday Holidays from the first contact to this last one including the arranged transfers etc, everything went as smooth as planned.

We will be back.
Best Regards
