128 The Esplanade | Your Ultimate Long Beach Family Escape in Robe

Some holiday homes are somewhere to stay.

Others become the place everyone remembers.

128 The Esplanade is one of those special Robe holiday homes where generations of memories are made. A place where mornings begin with coffee overlooking the dunes, afternoons are spent between the beach and the pool, and evenings are shared together on the expansive deck as the sun sets over the coast.

Perfectly positioned directly opposite the famous Long Beach, this beautiful family-friendly holiday home captures everything people love about a Robe beach holiday.

Step across the road, follow the private walkway through the dunes and within moments your feet are in the water. No packing the car. No searching for parking. Just an easy stroll from your front door to one of the Limestone Coast's most loved beaches.

Back at the house, the holiday continues.

Cool off in the solar-heated outdoor pool. Challenge the family to a game of billiards or table tennis downstairs. Spread out across multiple living spaces. Enjoy long lunches, afternoon drinks and evening conversations on the large wraparound deck while taking in the peaceful coastal views across the sand dunes out over Guichen Bay.

128 The Esplanade is more than a holiday house.

It is the kind of place where families reconnect, friendships grow stronger and everyone leaves already talking about coming back.

Why You'll Love Staying at 128 The Esplanade

The magic of 128 The Esplanade is that everyone can enjoy their own version of a perfect holiday.

For the early risers, there is nothing better than stepping onto the upstairs deck with a morning coffee and watching the coastline slowly come to life.

For beach lovers, Long Beach is literally across the road. The convenience of having the sand and ocean so close means spontaneous swims, sunset walks and quick trips back home for forgotten towels or snacks become effortless.

For families, this home has been designed for connection and entertainment.

The downstairs living area becomes a destination in itself, with a billiard table and table tennis setup providing hours of fun regardless of the weather. Rainy afternoon? Sorted. Competitive family tournament? Absolutely.

Outside, the solar-heated swimming pool creates another place to relax and enjoy the famous Robe sunshine.

The large wraparound second-storey deck is where many guests will find their favourite holiday moments. With views across the protective sand dunes towards Long Beach, it is the perfect place to enjoy a morning coffee, afternoon drink or evening meal while breathing in the fresh coastal air.

Whether you're travelling with children, grandparents, extended family or friends, 128 The Esplanade offers something incredibly valuable:

Space to be together.

And space to enjoy your own holiday pace.

Long Beach is one of the Limestone Coast's iconic attractions, stretching for kilometres along Robe's coastline. It is loved by families, swimmers, walkers, fishermen and anyone wanting to experience the beauty of the region.

From 128 The Esplanade, you are also within easy reach of Robe's charming township, where you'll discover cafés, restaurants, boutique shopping, galleries and local attractions.

A Local Tip from Happyshack

The walkway through the dunes directly opposite 128 The Esplanade is one of the home's greatest features.

Our favourite time to use it is late afternoon.

Head down to the beach with the family, leave the phones behind and watch the sun begin to soften across the water.

The dunes are also an important part of protecting the coastline, so please stick to the marked pathways and help preserve this beautiful environment for future guests.

Then return home, settle onto the deck and enjoy the view as another perfect Robe day comes to an end.
