The Sanctuary is our newest stay, launched in 2025 - and our most luxurious yet. Thoughtfully crafted for slow, meaningful moments, it’s a private timber retreat where two people can truly unwind, surrounded by nature.
Here, eco luxury meets warmth and stillness. Watch the light move through the space, sink into long conversations, and savour the kind of quiet that lingers long after you leave.

A touch of luxury amidst nature.
Our beautifully styled Glamping Tent is made for those who want to stay close to nature - without giving up comfort, privacy, or ease.
Tucked away in its own peaceful corner of Marion Bay, this spacious canvas retreat includes a private bathroom with hot water, a deck for slow mornings and starlit nights, and a plush bed dressed in soft linen.
With coastal-inspired details and the soothing soundtrack of waves in the distance, everything’s ready for you - no setup, no stress, just pure serenity.
bayside's own song
Every stay has its own rhythm - and now, Bayside Glamping has its own song.
Local artist Sarah Johnson, known as J J Arv, approached us with the idea of creating a track that captured the feeling of a holiday here. The result? Take Me There - a song that beautifully encapsulates the spirit of Bayside Glamping.
Released alongside the launch of The Sanctuary, the track is now available on Spotify and Apple Music. Vocals by Caleb Raymond, with production by Liam Smith.

Growing up, some of my favourite memories were camping with my Dad and sister…
Yorke Peninsula Accommodation That Feels Like a True Escape
Running a small business is full of challenges. We pour so much heart into what we create, and naturally, we want to showcase it in the best light. For me, that means sharing the story of our three beautiful properties – and explaining why they’re more than just places to stay.
Because it’s never just about bookings. When I share something, I want to spark…
the bay
Nestled on the southern tip of the Yorke Peninsula, Marion Bay is a charming seaside town where life slows to the rhythm of the ocean.
Positioned on the doorstep of Dhilba Guuranda–Innes National Park, it’s the perfect base to explore rugged coastlines, native wildlife, and some of South Australia’s most breathtaking scenery.
With two stunning beaches right in town, you can spend your days swimming, fishing, or simply soaking in the sea air—where sunrises are soft, sunsets glow golden, and nature is always close by.
tranquillity awaits
Whether you’re drawn to the Glamping Tent, the Tiny House, or The Sanctuary, our Marion Bay accommodation offers a soulful escape - made for slow mornings in winter light, sun-drenched summer days, and starry nights that linger long in memory.
A place to return to in every season - and the perfect time to book your escape is now.
