The Point Coolum Beach - Holiday Accommodation

The Point Coolum Beach offers self-contained holiday accommodation on a hillside overlooking Point Arkwright, Coolum Beach and the Coral Sea. Its collection includes one-, two- and three-bedroom villas and apartments, giving couples, families, friends and solo travellers more space than a standard hotel room. Open-plan kitchen and living areas make the accommodation suited to longer stays, while private balconies provide a place to take in the ocean views, watch the sunrise or listen to the surrounding birdsong.

The setting is a major part of the experience. The property sits across six acres of manicured gardens and includes two swimming pools, with the villas arranged across The Hilltop Villas, The First Bay Terraces and Coral Sea Villas. The Point describes itself as a quiet base for slowing down and reconnecting, whether that means reading on the balcony, spending time together outdoors or simply enjoying the coastal outlook. The ocean-facing position may also offer views of migrating humpback whales between June and November, according to the venue’s website.

Location-wise, the accommodation is a short walk past Coolum’s bays to the village and patrolled beach. Third Bay is described as being about 100 metres from the property, while nearby Point Arkwright and the surrounding coastline provide opportunities for beach walks, swimming and exploring. The venue’s local guides also point guests towards quieter regional spots including Second Bay, Emu Mountain, Yaroomba Beach and its rockpools, and Wappa Falls inland at Yandina.

Practical inclusions listed by The Point include free parking, high-speed Wi-Fi and access to tour discounts and special direct-booking rates. That combination of apartment-style facilities, garden space, pools and proximity to the beach makes it a useful option for guests who want a relaxed Coolum Beach base rather than a tightly packed resort stay. It also has clear appeal for remote workers, with the website specifically highlighting high-speed internet for digital nomads, while the larger villas and shared outdoor areas suit families and groups travelling together.
