Sand Castle—Beach Bliss, Expansive Alfresco Living

Find  Dunsborough Beach just beyond your doorstep, perfect for spontaneous swims or simply sinking your toes into the sand whenever the mood strikes. Inside, sunlight pours through the windows, highlighting the warmth of solid wooden floors and inviting living spaces designed for comfort and connection. Downstairs, a cosy lounge offers a perfect retreat for kids, while upstairs, the spacious main living area exudes comfort with plush seating, a crackling combustion fireplace, and bi-fold doors that seamlessly open to the spectacular outdoor deck. Step out to this expansive haven where you can savour sunsets on the lounge, gather around the large dining table, and fire up the gas BBQ, all surrounded by treetop views.

Plan your days in the open-plan dining area adjacent to the kitchen. The kitchen is fully equipped with ample prep space for effortless entertaining, while a kitchenette upstairs adds convenience, complete with a second dining table, bar fridge and washing-up facilities.

Winter break
Great pet friendly property, Amazing upstairs and downstairs living area and we especially loved the wood fire on these cold winter nights. Very disappointed with having to pay for linen given how expensive it was to for a short 4 night break!

Beautiful house, great family location
The deck is the hero of this house - fantastic for all-weather lounging looking out at the treetops. House is thoughtfully & generously appointed, upstairs and down. Beach over the road is wonderful for little kids (though being a dog exercise beach, it might not suit some). We loved the walk/bike path through the peppy trees too. Only reservations are (a) that most of the sleeping berths are bunk beds - there's only one genuine dbl/queen bed and (b) house is on a bend and cars tend to whiz at speed along the road in front - so take care!

Family together in a fabulous home.
We loved Sand Castles. Only one thing missing. A large dishwasher in main kitchen. A lot of water wasted washing up. The living area upstairs with fabulous huge balcony was perfect. We had our dogs & my two granddaughters enjoying the size of the home & activities provided.

Best. Beach House. Ever!!
This is our 4th stay at Sand Castle & we absolutely love it! It's only a short walk through the trees to the beach & there is so much room both inside & out. There's a very well equipped kitchen & the best upstairs bbq and decked area upstairs to sit back & relax after a day fishing or just enjoying the stunning Geographe Bay. Can highly recommend & we will be back next year! :) :)

Great location and property
The property is located across the road from the beach and a walk into Dunsborough town. The house was very clean, represented as per the photos and everything was stocked and ready for a great holiday! The cleaning fee did appear excessive though considering the linen, towels, bathmats ect were not complimentary.

Nice stay
We had a lovely time. The layout was a little odd (kitchen downstairs) and there was no dishwasher or corkscrews/ bottle opener which for a holiday home, it would’ve been nice to have. Overall, a good stay.

A magical beachside escape!
If you are looking for a place to unwind and forget about it all Sandcastle at Quindalup is just what you need. This house has it all - 3 spacious bedrooms and equal number of bathrooms , a kitchen with a great range of utensils and gadgets not to mention a wonderful upstairs area with additional kitchenette, beautiful fireplace and a deck that goes on for miles.This is a truly a home away from home with board games, dvds , books and some really interesting decorative pieces. Best of all is the spectacular location. Directly opposite the calm waters and golden sands of Quindalup beach - a perfect place for those with young kids or people wanting to catch some yummy whiting for dinner. This is really a place to escape it all. Do yourself a favor and get away at Sandcastle today.

comfortable house in great location
This property is in a great location on the waterfront and a short drive to Dunsborough town. The house has everything you need including a good selection of DVD's to watch. I would describe the furniture as comfortable rather than luxury...which is actually what I prefer when on holidays. A bit of maintenance would improve, particularly the rear fence starting to be pushed over by the tree roots. The gaps in the fence looked concerning at first with the risk of our dogs escaping, but it is an illusion. The fence is quite secure, apart from one damaged panel in the rear fence. On the whole would be happy to return.
