The villa is about a 30 second boat ride offshore.

It's also available to rent for a 16 person lunch, or a six person spa.

For $1,142 per night, two people can rent the villa.

On board, there's a wine cellar and food for an included breakfast.

From the inside, it almost looks like just a luxury hotel with an ocean view.

But, with doors open out to the deck, it's a way to enjoy the water and "eliminate the pitfalls of the traditional boating experience whilst amplifying the rest,"according to designer Anderson.

As a floating structure rather than a boat, the villa is stable, while still drifting slightly with the ocean.

Anderson said that it was key for him to make the structure in a way that wouldn't harm the pristine natural environment of the Australian coast.

Guests can go for a swim off the side of the boat, or borrow paddle-boards, fishing poles, and a floating daybed.

Guests also have full use of a boat to take them back and forth to shore.
