The Pole House
Overview
The Pole House stands high above Fairhaven Beach, instantly recognisable as one of the Great Ocean Roads most iconic sights. Suspended 40 metres in the air, this remarkable retreat offers guests a front-row seat to sweeping ocean views and the ever-changing moods of sky and sea. Inside, the recently renovated space blends modern luxury with architectural flair, creating a unique holiday experience thats as much about the setting as the stay itself.
Its a place where mornings start with the sound of surf below and evenings bring sunsets that fill the room with colour. While the house is packed with clever design touches - think reclining couches, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a suspended fireplace - the real highlight is the feeling of floating above the coastline. The Pole House is ideal for romantic escapes, special occasions, or anyone keen to experience the Great Ocean Road from a truly unforgettable vantage point.
