Description
We are an outdoorsy family of four residing on Macleay Island in the stunning Moreton Bay. The Southern Moreton Bay Islands are a hidden gem off the coast of Queensland, Australia. We love the natural beauty, tranquil atmosphere, and stunning landscapes. The islands offer a peaceful retreat that contrasts with the hustle and bustle of the mainland.
Outdoor activities on the Southern Moreton Bay Islands are diverse, from kayaking and paddleboarding to exploring walking trails. There are also opportunities for fishing, sailing, and scuba diving. You can enjoy the local cafés, markets, and artisan shops - ferry travel is free when island hopping.
We are two professionals who work from home and have two daughters. They are aged 5 years and 3 years old. We moved to the islands two years ago and absolutely love the beauty of this place and its community.
We have a downstairs space with stunning water views, sitting area and private ensuite.
