Moments from Yaroomba Beach and nestled beneath the iconic Mount Coolum, Melaleuca House is a Mediterranean-inspired shoot location on the Sunshine Coast that blends rich textures, sculptural design, and sun-soaked serenity. Designed with creative teams in mind, this home is a canvas of rendered curves, natural stone, and earthy finishes—ideal for high-end fashion, lifestyle, homewares, and wellness content.

The outdoor pool area is the star: dramatic white rendered walls fall into the water, while a suspended winged feature wall with a square blue window adds a cinematic focal point. A large daybed nestled into an arched niche offers styled moments that feel like Mykonos meets Marrakech. The limestone-paved surrounds, beamed pergola, and eucalyptus latte poles create natural shadow play—transforming every hour into a different lighting opportunity.

The outdoor shower, wrapped in blue-and-earth toned Moroccan-style tiles, adds a resort-worthy vignette, complemented by matching accent tiles on the staircase to the upper studio. The entire home is paved in imported cathedral-laid limestone, blurring the line between inside and out.

Inside, the open plan kitchen is a study in craftsmanship: a five-metre-long stone waterfall bench, American Oak push-to-open cabinetry, and brushed brass fixtures provide depth and materiality. Light flows across every surface, yet distinct zones create styling flexibility. The marble-clad fireplace brings warmth and texture to the formal living area, while neutral tones keep the palette shoot-neutral.

The master bedroom and ensuite continue the story—Venetian-rendered walls in clay tones, an integrated outdoor bath with mosaic tiling, and soft niches for candles and styling props create a spa-like atmosphere that translates beautifully to camera.

Located just 10 minutes from Sunshine Coast Airport, Melaleuca House is one of the region’s most distinctive visual properties. Designed by @de_vere_design_co and captured by @alynemedia, it’s not just a backdrop—it’s a story in stone, water, and light.

    What an amazing home to shoot in! Anni the host is an incredible woman, so kind, hospitable, helpful and generous. She went over and above to have her home perfect for our arrival. She purchased fresh flowers and created the most gourmet and designer outdoor dining table arrangement with fresh food laid out so beautifully. No expense spared. We can’t believe how much she did for us! Her home is filled with the most divine spaces to shoot in and so many wonderful props to choose from! Her home is literally the most beautiful home on the Sunshine Coast! In the afternoon she lit the fireplace for us and we got incredible shots in this space. I can’t rate this host and home enough! If you are looking for the ultimate home to shoot in, that has all the props you need, the most perfect lighting, and truly Vogue worthy spaces to shoot, this home is it! You will walk into this home and be amazed!!! The gardens are also divine. You can literally shoot any product campaign you can imagine in this space. We will be back!!! Thank you Anni!!!

    The location was perfect - a good size, lots of spaces to shoot, beautifully decorated and great light (especially outside). Annie was an incredible host - such a good energy and always happy to help but didn't stop us from getting everything done. Loved shooting here and will absolutely be back!

    We loved our experience at Melaleuca House and the host Annie made our day. Unfortunately it was raining outside and we were unable to use the outdoor however, Annie was so hospitable. Even though we weren't able to shoot outside, the interior of the house was just as incredible and we are so happy how our day turned out. We look forward to booking again in the future. Thank you Annie for an amazing day.

    What an amazing space for creatives! The hosts were so accomodating and had the place looking perfect. Even with the weather not being in our favour Melaleuca made for the ideal backdrop for our shoot. Annie is super helpful and the location is 10/10. Highly recommend.

    What an incredible experience we had at Melaleuca house. Our first shoot ever couldn't have gone any better! Annie is the most incredibly kind and accomodating host ever and her home is stunning. Every single corner of that place is pure magic & a photographer's dream. We created the most beautiful content and I couldn't be happier with how everything went. The vibes & great energy of the home made the day so perfect & we even ended up having a cheeky swim post shoot! The entire team had the best day ever! Thanks Annie xx

    Could not speak more highly of our experience at Melaleuca House. The location itself is stunning, and couldn't even be ruined by the miserable weather. Annie our host is an absolute superstar, so incredibly helpful and kind, and went above and beyond to make sure we had a fantastic day in her beautiful home. Can't wait to come back!
