A cosy Wye River beach house with first class ocean and Wye River beach views. It's fantastic all year round for either a family, group or as a couples' retreat.

In the warmer months enjoy the salty sea breezes, the sound of the waves rolling in and the smell of the bush from the deck or soak up the views in air-conditioned comfort.

Bird life abounds and you may spot a koala, often in the trees across the road or in the back garden. Snuggle up in front of the wood heater in the cooler months watching the ever-changing moods of the sea. Leave the car parked as the Wye beach, cafe/general store with its artisan bread, pastries, and great coffee, and the Wye pub are less than a 5-minute stroll away.

The comfortable open plan living incorporates dining and kitchen areas with ocean and Wye beach views. The fully functional modern kitchen includes breakfast bar, dishwasher, microwave, Nespresso Citiz & Milk Pod machine (operates with Nespresso compatible coffee pods) cook top and oven. The living area includes a dining setting for 6, leather lounge, two comfy armchairs, Smart TV with Bluetooth compatible soundbar, and telescope. Unlimited Wifi and Stan are available throughout the property.

The main and second bedrooms have queen beds and ocean views. The third bedroom has 2 single beds. A portable Noirot heater is provided for additional heating. The bathroom is spacious with a large shower, vanity and toilet and it contains a practical European style laundry with washing machine.

There's also a generous sized deck with outdoor setting. The BBQ (Weber Q) area has an additional undercover outdoor setting.
Free wifi and stan.

Perfect Beach House
We loved staying at this property. The views were beautiful. It was very clean and homey with everything you needed supplied. The short few minutes walk to the beach, general store and cafe and pub was great. It makes for an extremely relaxing getaway. Sitting on the deck watching the plant bird life was special. We will definitely return sooner than later.

Lovely place to stay
Stayed for a week. It was nice and quiet with a great view of the ocean. The enclosed balcony would be great in warmer weather. My only suggestion would be to properly fence the area at the back of house so the dogs could go outside without me having to take them all the time. Would recommend this place to others.

Everything one could desire in a beachside holiday.
If you are looking for a sleepy beachside holiday in a property with wonderful views inside and out, a log fireplace, well stocked kitchen, renovated bathroom and walking distance to everything. This is one of those properties.

The only issue was we requested a late check out due to us not being able to get to the accommodation until late. Was advised we would be informed on whether it was possible on the day before check out. We we're not contacted.

Believe in the magic
From the moment you make your way up the long treelined driveway to Ocean Magic, you know youre heading to something special. This house is perfect! The view is truly magical. To one side you feel like youre sitting within a famous bush painting with tall native trees and colourful Australian birds and then to the other you have beautiful ocean views. At night you feel like you could almost touch the stars. This truly is a place where the bush meets the beach and magic happens.Great Ocean Road Real Estate were wonderful to deal with from the start. So friendly and always happy to help. The owners of the property also made us feel very welcome with a lovely card, a welcome bottle of wine and lots of consideration for what a comfortable visit might need. The living area and kitchen were comfortable, modern and had everything you could think of. And, that beautiful seating area near the window, that was most definitely our favourite spot to sit and completely relax any time we had a chance. Our kids loved using the telescope to assess the waves, how many kids were on the beach and watch birds and other things going on around us. The house is a short 3-minute walk from the caf/store and local pub which are all sensational. We loved being able to lunch at the caf while the kids played in the playground and then regularly stepped up from the beach to the pub for a drink, gelati or meal. No matter where you turn, everyone in Wye River is super friendly it feels like a world of its own. We loved this visit and have rated it as one of our family favourites. Thank you Ocean Magic for sprinkling your magic on our family summer holiday!

Priceless View!
This well designed and spacious house is the perfect beach meets bush getaway. It has a priceless view of the ocean and lots of outdoor space to relax & entertain on. The hosts left a clean and well stocked house with everything from a fire place to a dvd collection to keep us entertained when we were at the beach. Will defined stay there again when next in the area!
