Holyhead Beach Retreat

Welcome to your home away from home — a beautifully presented, light-filled coastal retreat perfectly positioned just one street back from the pristine sands of Whites Beach. Set in a quiet location, this property offers both peace and convenience, within easy walking distance of Deep Creek Reserve, the Salty Dog Café, and the Torquay foreshore walking track. A short 5-minute drive will take you to Torquay’s vibrant shopping precinct, restaurants, and The Sands Golf Course.

The main living room features a large Smart TV and cosy L shaped lounge, additional arm chair and ceiling fan for relaxing movie nights.
