Aussie Adventure

Plan the ultimate family vacation down under

You're going to Australia!

OK, we realize we don't have the power of a certain media mogul to send you for free. But with just a few weeks left before summer ends and the kids head back to school, why not plan one last over-the-top summer trip for the family?

While we can't pick up the tab, we can offer a few tips for your visit. Starting with staying at 6 Beachfront Mirage.

Located in the tropical resort town of Port Douglas, 6 Beachfront Mirage is a 4-bedroom house nestled in a gated community. Its open floor plan and harmonious blend of modern and cozy makes for an ideal family outpost. The kitchen boasts high-end appliances from Miele and features an expansive island with enough seating for the family to hang out as you cook. The living room is just as inviting, with its oversized sofas, large-screen TV, and glass doors that fold back, offering an even larger space that runs into the terrace.

When you want to relax in the house, indulge yourself by booking an in-house yoga session, lounge on the oversize deck overlooking the garden, or have some fun in the heated infinity swimming pool. And the gamers of the family will love the media room outfitted with colorful bean bag chairs, an Xbox, and Wii. For more active days, explore the nearby Four Mile Beach, Mirage Golf Course, or take a bike ride to downtown Port Douglas.

We promise, it couldn't be more memorable if Lady O herself planned it.
