Makepeace is your private island sanctuary within minutes of Noosa or 20 minutes’ drive from Sunshine Coast Airport. It combines modern contemporary living with traditional tropical island design, creating a tranquil environment that is in complete harmony with nature.
The Australian home is owned (and used) by Sir Richard Branson and Brett Godfrey, it has been created to accommodate up to 22 castaways in luxurious seclusion, with all the attractions of the Sunshine Coast just a short boat-ride away.
After alighting at the heart-shaped island’s private dock, you’ll be shown to your villa (one of only three), Island house or The Boathouse.
The island’s 25 acres are mostly bushland, the perfect place to stroll and discover many species of birdlife, or perhaps take out the island “tinnie” and try a spot of river fishing. You’ll also find plenty of resort attractions/equipment including: tennis, kayaks, cooking classes, paddle boards, outdoor cinema and media room.
Noosa’s famous beaches, restaurants, surf school and fishing grounds are just a few minutes upstream. The Great Barrier Reef is less than an hour away by charter flight.
All the Makepeace buildings were designed and constructed in Bali before being shipped to Australia. The furnishings, sculptures, antiques and lighting are bespoke pieces acquired throughout Indonesia.
The Sunshine Coast is north of Brisbane, known for its glorious beaches, hilly green hinterland and relaxed coastal towns. Coastal activities occupy most visitors, especially, surfing and fishing (for which the region is celebrated); the southern reaches of the Great Barrier Reef is only an hour away by seaplane.
