Waves 3 Hamilton Island - oceanviews, golf buggy and transfers

The Experience:

Waves 3 is a spacious, 3 bedroom Hamilton Island holiday townhouse spread across three generous levels, sitting elevated, close to the waterfront with sweeping ocean views and direct access to the Waves complex pool. With a chic interior, Nespresso machine, two dining settings for eight, a complimentary 4-seat buggy and complimentary valet transfers, this is a well-rounded base for families and groups of up to 8 plus infant wanting a genuine self-catering holiday on Hamilton Island in the heart of the Whitsundays.

At a Glance:

- 3 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms + powder room | Sleeps up to 8 guests plus infant
- Tri-level waterfront townhouse — ocean views throughout
- Steps from the Waves complex pool (shared by a small number of properties)
- Expansive balcony with 8-seat outdoor dining setting and ocean views
- Indoor 8-seat dining table with ocean views
- Family gas BBQ
- Well-appointed kitchen — gas stove, dishwasher, Nespresso machine and starter pack
- Smart TV and Netflix in lounge
- Complimentary 4-seat electric golf buggy
- Complimentary return valet transfers
- Free Wi-Fi | Air-conditioning and ceiling fans throughout
- Laundry — washer, dryer, iron and ironing board
- Two single fold-out beds available for children
- Port-a-cot and highchair available on request


Why You'll Love It:

- The tri-level layout gives this 3 bedroom Hamilton Island townhouse a genuine sense of space — it feels more like a house than a holiday apartment, with room for the whole group to spread out across three floors
- Two separate dining settings for eight — one indoors and one on the balcony — both with ocean views, making every meal an occasion
- The Waves complex pool is steps away and shared by only a handful of properties — far quieter and more intimate than the resort pools
- The shared bathroom for Bedrooms 2 and 3 features a spa bath — an unexpected and welcome touch for a 3 bedroom Hamilton Island property at this price point
- Sunset views from the balcony are a highlight that multiple guests specifically call out in reviews — the outlook over the water is hard to beat
- The marina, restaurants and resort facilities are within easy walking distance, and the complimentary buggy puts the entire island within reach
- Day trips to the Great Barrier Reef, Whitehaven Beach and the wider Whitsunday Islands are easily arranged through the Luxury Holidays concierge


Living, Dining & Entertaining:

The main living and dining areas sit across the upper level of Waves 3, with a well considered design that makes the most of the ocean outlook. The indoor dining table seats eight and faces the water, while the lounge — with large smart TV and Netflix — opens to the balcony for a seamless indoor-outdoor feel. The kitchen is well set up for self-catering at any scale, with a gas stove, dishwasher, full cookware, glassware and dinnerware, and a Nespresso machine stocked with a starter pack of pods for arrival. A powder room is conveniently located near the living area for guests moving between floors.

The expansive balcony is one of Waves 3's standout features — a full 8-seat outdoor dining setting and family gas BBQ face directly onto the ocean, making it as practical as it is scenic. Whether it's a casual breakfast or a long evening BBQ watching the sun set over the Whitsunday Islands, the balcony is where the group naturally ends up.

Bedrooms & Sleeping Arrangements:

Master Bedroom: Bedroom 1 King bed. Ensuite with shower, toilet and sink. Air-conditioning and ceiling fan.

Bedroom 2: King bed. Access to shared bathroom. Air-conditioning and ceiling fan.

Bedroom 3: King bed or two singles (split king). Access to shared bathroom. Air-conditioning and ceiling fan.

Shared Bathroom: (Bedrooms 2 & 3) Spa bath, shower, sink and toilet.

Additional Sleeping: & Powder room Two fold-out beds available for children. Port-a-cot and highchair available on request at no charge. Extra powder room near the living area for convenience.

Outdoor Living & Location:

The balcony at Waves 3 runs the full width of the property and is fitted out for serious outdoor dining — 8-seat alfresco setting, family gas BBQ and unobstructed ocean views across the Whitsunday Islands. It's the kind of space that makes it easy to spend the entire day without going inside. Steps from the front door, the Waves complex pool provides a quieter pool option than the resort pools, and the surrounding landscaping keeps the whole complex feeling calm and relaxed.


Waves 3 is positioned on Acacia Drive on the waterfront side of Hamilton Island, within easy walking distance of the marina, restaurants, Front Street shops and the IGA. The complimentary 4-seat buggy gives the group flexibility to reach Catseye Beach, the resort facilities and all corners of the island with ease. From Hamilton Island, day trips to the Great Barrier Reef, Whitehaven Beach and Heart Reef in the Whitsundays are all readily accessible through the Luxury Holidays concierge.

Extremely comfortable and clean townhouse internally with great views down to Shute Harbour.

Lovely and extremely comfortable Townhouse. Included buggy certainly added to the experience and ability to move around the Island. Had a minor issue with the buggy which was quickly fixed. A small thing but some basic supplies (e.g salt, pepper, cooking oil) would be helpful. Will be back. Thanks

Magnificent Views

This house offers fabulous views over the Whitsundays and is conveniently located just up the hill from the main shopping and restaurant street on Hamilton Island. The deck faces west so great sunsets but also strong afternoon sun onto the deck. All bedrooms are on the middle level away from the very spacious open plan living, dining and kitchen area. Occasional noise from the co-joined property but nothing too concerning. Nice established gardens. Would stay here again.
