Captivating Converted Fisherman’s Shack
This handmade shack perched on the water was created with sustainability at its core, offering guests an extraordinary experience while treading lightly on the environment. Just an hour from the city yet only accessible by boat, it’s surrounded by a national park with no shops, cars, or roads in sight. It feels like an enchanted escape, where guests can connect with nature – syncing with the tides, gazing at the stars, drifting asleep to the sea, and waking with the sun’s embrace. Built as a one-bedroom retreat for family and friends, it’s adorned with treasures from its owner’s travels over 35 years, including pre-loved furniture from flea markets and vintage stores all over the world. The window seat spanning the lounge room is the perfect spot to unwind with a good book, enjoy a playlist, take a nap, or savour a drink.
