Splash of Blue, Apartment 2, 61 Noosa Parade, Noosa Heads

This chic Noosa Heads apartment is creatively named Splash of Blue. But with a private spa, a courtyard that unfolds under the cloudless coastal sky and ready access to one of the world’s most beautiful beaches, the drawcard here is less about a splash of blue and more about an immersion in its colourful sights and shades. You just need to dive in!

Unfolding across two levels, the welcoming apartment cleverly positions its three bedrooms upstairs, offering retreat from the communal gathering areas. All are furnished with an eye to rest, retreat and the chance to take a breather. But the master suite takes a luxurious step beyond, with a stunning spa bath positioned in an open-plan ensuite. It’s a rare slice of style normally found in only the most expensive of accommodations, and one further complemented by a private furnished balcony.

Downstairs, a spacious kitchen nestled at the back comes equipped with all the mod cons visitors could want. It’s the perfect creative zone for keen home chefs to visit the markets, stock up on fresh local produce and then unleash their artistry in the preparation of meals. Food is easily served in the adjacent dining space, which features a table and chairs.

Continuing through the open-plan space, the lounge area is comfortably zoned, and beautifully decorated, for catch-ups and conversations. The eye then travels through beautiful timber shutters and sliding glass doors to a private courtyard beyond.

Ideally set up for both leisure and pleasure, this alfresco entertaining zone has a spa that’s safely positioned behind glass balustrading. It’s the perfect spot to unwind while someone else grills dinner on the outdoor barbecue adjacent to a covered table and chairs. Lush plantings enhance the tropical feel. Quiet and calm owing to its location away from the hustle and bustle of the bigger tourist enclaves, the apartment is nonetheless within easy reach of the coast’s highest-profile amenities and attractions. A short stroll opens up a world of possibilities, from the fabulous shopping and dining along the vibrant Hastings St precinct to the flora and fauna of Noosa National Park and the unspoilt golden sands of Main Beach. You can swim and surf, browse or bushwalk – the choice is entirely yours. And as the action unfolds under a cloudless blue sky, with those turquoise blue waters stretching out to the horizon, one thing’s for sure… this is one slice of paradise where a dose of the blues is just what you need.
