Oak Beach is an idyllic stretch of white coral sand beachfront backing onto lowland tropical rainforest and sheltered by a rocky headland in the foothills of the World Heritage listed mountain range between Cairns and Port Douglas. Oak Beach has gained a reputation as being a holiday destination for the discerning traveller, with seclusion and privacy on offer to those lucky enough to have access to one of the less than a dozen luxury beachfront villas and beach houses that make up the closed community of Oak Beach. Imagine waking to the gentle sound of waves at your your door step, looking across the wide blue sea from every room and strolling along a private beach before sunset then here is where your dreams come true. Spread over two levels, the Boathouse has amazing panoramic views across the golden sands of Oak Beach to the blue ocean beyond. Spend precious moments lazing around the sundeck by the pool or take a stroll down to the secluded beach.
