An award-winning, architect-designed retreat with an infinity lap pool, breathtakingly elevated directly above the white-sand beach at Port Douglas, home of the Great Barrier Reef.
  • Sleeps: 4
  • Bedrooms: 2
  • Bathrooms: 3
  • Minimum stay: 2 nights

The proud winner of Australia’s ‘House of the Year’ award in 2015, The Edge is an iconic, almost other-worldly retreat that sits directly above the golden beach at Port Douglas.

Designed by the renowned Aussie architect Charles Wright, cutting-edge style will make you feel almost as though you’ve boarded a sleek spaceship, as you savour jaw-dropping views of the Coral Sea’s white-sand beaches and tropical landscaping.

Delights include a balcony with a built-in granite daybed, a dreamy al fresco dining area, and a 10-metre infinity lap pool. And as if all that wasn’t quite enough outrageous luxury, the huge master bedroom boasts double walk-in his-and-hers dressing rooms!

There’s a second bedroom too, sleeping four lucky guests. After updating your Instagram account with some of the most envy-inducing pics ever, drink to your incredible good fortune together at the fine granite dining table, as you admire that sensational sunset.
