Description
There are places you stay—and places that stay with you. Facing the Sun is one of the latter. This sun-drenched coastal retreat, just minutes from the sand at Rye Beach, offers more than a change of scenery—it invites a change of pace. Here, the days stretch longer, softened by sea breezes, golden light, and slow mornings shared over coffee on the deck. STRA0028/24 The space The Space Facing the Sun is a soulful holiday home where natural textures, calming tones, and thoughtful design blend seamlessly. Large windows and open living spaces welcome the light at every hour, creating a warm, effortless atmosphere that encourages rest and reconnection. Whether you’re curled up with a book, gathered with loved ones for dinner, or enjoying a glass of wine in the garden, every part of the house is designed to make you feel at ease. Layered Comfort Comfort lives in the details here—from the plush beds dressed in quality linens to the deep sofa made for slow afternoons. The fully equipped kitchen invites you to explore local produce from nearby markets, while multiple indoor and outdoor dining spaces adapt to every season and occasion. Modern climate control ensures year-round ease, while the outdoor spaces shine brightest in warmer months—perfect for barbecues, beach days, and starry evening conversations. For the Soul Facing the Sun isn't just a name—it’s a way of being here. A retreat made for unwinding, recharging, or simply being still. Whether you're escaping the city, reconnecting with family, or writing the next chapter of your story, this home opens its arms and gives you the space to exhale. Location Set in the heart of Rye on the Mornington Peninsula, you're only minutes from world-class beaches, the Peninsula Hot Springs, wineries, bush walks, and some of Victoria’s best coastal dining.
