Cristal Cove

Sunshine Coast


This two-storey brick home shelters five tidy, light-filled rooms and a neat four-bed dorm as well as excellent kitchen facilities, a bar and pool table. The laid-back atmosphere is hard to beat. Upstairs rooms are larger and offer more privacy. Hint: room 4 comes with great ocean views.
