2. First Point, Noosa
3. Phoenix One Superyacht
4. Mt French Lodge, Scenic Rim

Asgard House, Sunshine Coast

In Norse mythology, Asgard is the fortified house of the gods in the sky. Floating in the pool with views to the Glasshouse Mountains and sea you certainly wonder if you are in the sky.

Hinterland Charm

Fancy a taste of the best our Sunshine State has to offer?

Designed to make the most of the sumptuous views of the Glasshouse mountains, the outdoor lounge at Asgard House.

Asgard House, a striking home located 400 metres above sea level and perched atop a Sunshine Coast Hinterland Glasshouse mountain, will delight with its sweeping mountain views as well as its amenities.

With only eagles as neighbours, you can make enjoy scenic views straight from your bathtub.

The five-bedroom, four-bathroom property features a private helipad, pool and media room with state-of-the-art technology and a private concierge service.

Asgard House is equipped with an elegant indoor kitchen, as well as an outdoor kitchen if you feel like an alfresco dinner. You can also make your way to The Long Apron, located just down the road.

For that ultimate retreat feel, priority bookings can also be organised at Spa Anise at Spicers Tamarind Retreat, as well as at hatted restaurants nearby such as The Long Apron.

Best of all, the space is entirely yours. Your only neighbours? A family of eagles unlikely to share your pool (or their opinions) and a wonderland of (endangered) birdwing butterflies. 

First Point, Noosa 

There’s no better access to the beach in Noosa than First Point.

Seaside Escape

For those who prefer uninterrupted ocean views and direct beach access, First Point delivers what could arguably be one of the most highly sought-after spots in Noosa.

The deck at First Point makes the most of the beach views.

Situated overlooking beautiful Little Cove, First Point has three beautifully appointed bedrooms and three bathrooms, a pool, concierge service and a spacious deck with a barbecue to make the most of the sun.

A bedroom at First Point, Noosa has uninterrupted views of Little Cove and the sea.

Happily, while direct access to Noosa National Park and its many walking trails is a unique feature, it’s also only moments away from the dining and shopping precinct of Hastings Street, so the property really does have something for everyone.

A beach retreat as it should be, the summer styling of the living room at First Point, Noosa.

That said, the only noise you’ll hear from First Point is of the gentle stirrings of nature, providing you with a sense of place.

Phoenix One Superyacht 

Plain Sailing Luxury

Superyachts and Australia’s coastline – has there ever been a better match? 

Phoenix One seen here in the Whitsundays. She comes with all the toys you would expect to make a memorable holiday.

It’s a question to ponder endlessly as you explore the beauty of some of our country’s most pristine, untouched regions onboard Phoenix One, a 35-metre Benetti-designed superyacht.

Breakfast lunch or sunset drinks on the top deck of Phoenix One gives you even better views of the sea all around.

Whether you’re interested in experiencing the best of the Great Barrier Reef or prefer the rugged coastal terrain of The Kimberley, Phoenix One ensures you experience it in style, offering four luxurious staterooms, seasonally inspired cuisine and spacious upper and lower deck spaces.

Of course, every postcard-perfect moment is created carefully by a world-class crew so you’ll never have to lift a finger.

Alfresco dining on board Phoenix One.

Fancy exploring the Whitsundays on your own private jet ski or enjoying the local Northern Territory wildlife from the comfort of your heated outdoor spa?

When life on a superyacht gets too much, then it’s time for a jacuzzi.

Phoenix One has got it all, from a saloon with 1000+ movie library, waterslide and BBQ to a range of watersports equipment including stand-up paddle boards and that aforementioned jet ski. Kids over the age of 12 are welcome.

Mt French Lodge, Scenic Rim

Mountain High

Elegance is the name of the game with Mt French Lodge, an exclusive mountainside getaway overlooking the spectacular Scenic Rim.

Escape to the country at Mt French Lodge, just an hour from Brisbane.

Location, location, location – or so the saying goes – and while the lodge certainly delivers with its sweeping views across the valley to the mountains, it’s the finer details that make this property one of the country’s best.

Instant destress – arriving at Mt French Lodge with sweeping views of the Scenic Rim.

Featuring four luxuriously appointed two-storey suites (each with its own fireplace and en suite), a pool large enough to train off-season Olympic swimmers, helipad, gourmet kitchen, lawn tennis and a range of walking trails, at Mt French Lodge, you can do as much – or as little as you like.

All four suites at Mt French Lodge have their own fireplace and sumptuous vies of the bucolic Scenic rim.

A concierge service is included and there is also the option to call in a professional chef to cater for your group during your stay. Mt French Lodge sleeps a maximum of eight and is located only an hour’s drive from Brisbane. 

You deserve a hassle-free break so have a private chef make your dinner at Mt French Lodge.
