The Blue House - Wye River
Experience modern coastal living at The Blue House, a unique Australian beach retreat perched above Bass Strait and the iconic Great Ocean Road. This sophisticated and thoughtfully designed home offers a relaxed beach lifestyle with breathtaking ocean and coastline views from every room. Enjoy the spectacle of rock pools filling with water on high tide and the rhythmic waves rolling over them. At low tide, these rock pools become an ideal swimming spot, accessible via Separation Creek Beach. A leisurely walk along the beach will take you to Wye River, where you can savor brunch or coffee at the local store. Designed with sustainable living in mind, The Blue House features a practical and flexible layout within its spacious three-bedroom, two-bathroom configuration, complemented by a powder/laundry room. The entry level boasts an expansive open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area, with seamless access to a king bedroom and a luxurious en-suite bathroom. The living area is designed for comfort and style, featuring flexible seating options to enjoy the stunning views, a cozy wood heater, Smart TV, and a home theatre system. Modern amenities include NBN fibre to the premises, a state-of-the-art Smart Modem, excellent Wi-Fi coverage, and an innovative built-in 4G mobile network backup for uninterrupted connectivity. Step outside onto the wide wrap-around deck that extends from the living area and master bedroom, perfect for outdoor entertaining with a large 9-piece dining setting and Weber family BBQ. The chef’s kitchen is a highlight, complete with a Breville barista-style coffee machine and ample space for entertaining. The powder/laundry room is equipped with a large stacked washing machine, heat pump dryer, and a second fridge/freezer. On the lower level, find two additional bedrooms, a generous central bathroom, and extensive storage/wardrobe space. The Queen bedroom and versatile kids/flex room, which includes a bunk bed, trundle bed (two singles), and a collection of games and books, cater to diverse guest needs. The Blue House seamlessly integrates with its native bushland and coastal environment, offering year-round delight. Well-behaved pets are welcome, and for added security, an active camera monitors the front entrance.

Great place
All perfect . House was equipped with more than we needed. Except water pump was very noisy. Feel humidity and smell from downstairs. Heated towel rails will be nice to have .
The rest was perfect. Definitely will recommend to anyone this place . We was very surprised how house was equipped with everything. Glasses, plates , oven things , coffee machine . Basically everything you need . For future guests just take your food and don’t take anything else . House have everything you need plus more . Very very Happy

The sound of the waves
The house was amazing with uninterrupted views of the see and the amazing night sky. The interior design is beautiful and the bed super comfy. Didn’t want to leave the house but ventured daily to the local cafe for great coffee and food.

Great stay
Couldn’t reccomend the house more. Location and view was amazing. Would be great if it had some shampoo and conditioner but that’s the only amenities missing. House was very well stocked otherwise.
