Pure coastal calm.

Upstairs Living & Panoramic Views
Haleia's open-plan upper level is the heart of the home — a spacious, light-filled sanctuary where floor-to-ceiling windows span the entire width of the house, framing uninterrupted views of the ocean, cliffs, and landscape. This level is thoughtfully divided into four distinct zones:
• A living area with plush sofas, a fireplace (wood, kindling, and firelighters provided) board games and a smart TV.
• A dining area featuring a striking, natural tree-trunk table seating 12 — perfect for long, shared meals.
• A reading/viewing nook with four sheepskin-lined high-back chairs and ottomans placed directly in front of the view — a place to watch surfers, weather, sunsets, and farmland merge with the sea.
Every inch is designed for calm and connection — to nature, to one another, and to the rhythm of the coastline.

The Beach
Step out your back gate and down a private, gently sloping cliffside path directly onto Smiths Beach, one of Victoria’s most spectacular and family-friendly stretches of coastline. Known for its soft sand, incredible surf, and natural rock pools, it’s perfect for swimming, body surfing, or exploring with little ones. At low tide, stroll over to YCW Beach — another gem just around the rocks. After your beach adventures, rinse off in one of two outdoor rain showers, or slide into the hot spa to unwind.

Downstairs Wellness & Leisure
Start your day with yoga in front of the windows or on the deck, with the sea as your backdrop.
A second, expansive downstairs living area includes a ping-pong table, dumbbell weights to stay active, and a large lounge area with 82" smart TV -- all with expansive views across the cliff top and ocean.
⸻
Outdoor Spa & Relaxation Zone
Soak in the 6-person outdoor spa, or gather in the sunken outdoor lounge for a game on the all-weather TV. Two outdoor rain showers offer refreshing post-beach bliss. Finally, relax on the back deck with a glass of wine overlooking the landscape and ocean views.

The Location
Situated on Phillip Island’s southern coastline, Smiths Beach faces the Bass Strait and offers direct access to everything the island has to offer. A 3-minute walk takes you to a local café for great coffee and food, as well as the legendary Island Surf Shop & School. Cowes is just 10 minutes by car, as are the Penguin Parade, Nobbies, Phillip Island Winery, and most local attractions — all within easy reach, yet peacefully distant.
