A Villa Gail is situated at the top of Yorkeys Knob hill, with breathtaking views overlooking the ocean and Great Barrier Reef.

The space
A unique two-bedroom, two-story Mediterranean guesthouse that cascades gracefully down the ocean cliffside. Designed to capture the beauty of its surroundings, this spacious apartment offers stunning views, refreshing sea breezes, and a peaceful atmosphere that feels worlds away. The guesthouse features two comfortable bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, and an open-plan lounge and dining area with large windows and doors, keeping you connected to the natural beauty outside.

Please note, the owner Gail lives in the middle section of the property.

The pool area is a shared space for our guests

Please no events or professional photoshoots without contacting us first. This comes at an additional charge, separate to AirBnB.

Guest access
Guests have their own private villa by the sea.
To enjoy your own secluded & private area close to the ocean, there a few flights of stairs to the villa (approx 80 stairs) these can be seen in the photos. There are breaks in between and are very manageable.

If you don’t think you can do these stairs, please see our other listing - top villa, it only has one flight of stairs from the main entry.

If you would like to leave luggage at the top, please let us know and we can store it safely for you.
