Directly across from a pristine beach is an incredible three-story vacation home with a striking color palette, sophisticated design, and breathtaking ocean views.

The spectacular Playa House, on Sydney’s Palm Beach, earns nominations in national home furnishing awards – and it’s not hard to see why.

Guests are amazed by the breathtaking sea view that acts as an ‘enchanting’ backdrop to the upstairs lounge, while an incredible outdoor terrace is carved into the rocky hillside where the house is located, with sunbeds and an outdoor yoga studio.

The palatial family home is as functional as it is stylish with sleek yet durable surfaces and living spaces of epic proportions.

Playa House’s designers moved away from bright whites and cool blues usually associated with coastal style, and instead embraced more vibrant hues that contrast with the modern concrete walls and stone floors.
