Straddie beach cabin

> WELCOME TO STRADDIE BEACH CABIN

Life is good at the beach!

There are very few north facing beaches on the east coast. The best thing about Point Lookout is that if one beach is a bit blown-out, just go around the corner to another beautiful beach. North Straddie offers many options for your holiday.

Straddie Beach Cabin is a secluded free-standing eco cabin (Shack 18) that offers privacy within the island's premier resort. Located at beautiful Home Beach in Point Lookout, it is set in leafy natural surrounds and caters for singles and couples. It has everything needed to make your stay a pleasurable one, with most of the islands attractions nearby.

The stylish architect designed high-set one-bedroom eco cabin offers a practical, inspirational design, with a mezzanine bedroom featuring a queen size bed. There are two additional single foam mattresses and a portable folding cot stored in the cabin. The cabin is air-conditioned with open plan lounge/dining. It is self contained with a modern kitchenette, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, washing machine, big screen Smart TV. A medium size Weber Q barbeque stands on the extended rear deck which is secluded by a beautiful natural screen of native greenery. A beach umbrella and two beach chairs are kept in the cabin for guests to use. A small collection of grocery staples and a small supply of cleaning items is also kept on-site. All linen is supplied for two guests. A complimentary room clean and fresh linen is provided for stays longer than 7 days.

A late check-out may be available on request.

Guests have access to the resort's pool (one of the best on the island) and a small gymnasium.

Wireless internet access is available from reception at reasonable rates and the great on-site Cafe offers great breakfasts, lunches, woodfired pizza and a quality barista.

In the words of a recent guest: "We absolutely loved Stradbroke - our first visit and thought your beach shack was great, especially the deck which made it very private. It was a perfect place to stay. We would certainly ask for No 18 if we were to return".

Feel free to have a look at our other guest comments!

Straddie has something for everyone including great surf beaches, 4WD beach access, fishing, sand boarding & scuba diving. Straddie scenic walks, whale & dolphin watching, adventure sports and activities, golf, Aboriginal cultural tours and demonstrations, bird watching, and much more.

Straddie Stay

Was perfect for the stay and had the exact space, ammenities and utilities to support 2 adults and possibly a small family. Only notes are to use the clothes hanger outside after a rain because it dripped rust when we brought it inside. All in all, great getaway accommodation!

The good - Great location, convenient for the bus if you fancy a day trip to Dunwich and a few beers at the brewery. Easy access to cafe and bowls club.Good access to the beach, directly across the road, and convenient access to point lookout. The place had most of what we needed, to have an enjoyable time.The bad - The place needed a decent clean as it was dusty. The ceiling fan, lights, and window screens didn't look like they had been cleaned this year. The coffee machine (this could be a stayz error) was a kettle and a jar of blend 43, so plan accordingly, or go to the cafe, which is closer than the carpark.

The shack was perfect for our stay on Straddie. Only a short walk across the road to the beach. Scrumptious breakfast every morning at the cafe 20m from shack! 👌 Thank you Harry! Appreciate your hospitality!

Island time getaway

Cute comfy villa within walking distance of Adder, pub, and gorge walk. Excellent amenities. Quiet and leafy. Harry was easily contactable. The only suggestion we have is to fix the front door handle.

Great location with all you need for a beach stay

Harry was easy to communicate with at any time. The property had plenty of extra's that made it a great beach stay - boogie boards, beach chairs, umbrella. There were games and books as well. Plenty of kitchenware to put together meals. Deck was spacious and had a lovely outlook. Shack 18 is located far enough from the main road that there is no noise. Would recommend and would stay again - thank you

Good position

Great spot and resort pool beautiful. Unfortunately the BBQ was unusable as it was filthy and the utensils rusted and the outdoor umbrella couldn't be used as it wouldn't stand up so it was incredibly hot. The front door lock took 10 - 15 minutes to work. It was a good location and the island was gorgeous.

Response from VrboOwner on 24 Mar 2020

Thanks for the feedback Lisa. We need feedback to know when things are amiss. The umbrella base was changed on Sunday 12 March. The front door lock was changed on Monday 13 March. In regards to the bbq, I disagree with your statement. The bbq is checked by the cleaner at each changeover. A packet of bbq wipes is provided in the pantry for guests to use. It is the guests responsibility to leave the bbq fit for use by the next guest. On inspection, and in my opinion, the cleaner, the owner and the previous guest, were all satisfied that the bbq was fit for use.

Great place to holiday, we’ll do it again!

Admittedly I was a bit worried by the review that came a few days before we arrived, but the place was great and clean. Harry was also really helpful with my questions on the first day, but after that it was smooth sailing and well worth the price we paid. It was as the pictures show. Kitchen, fridge, utensils/cooking gear, and stove all worked great and were clean. Only used the bed upstairs which was comfortable. Couches just needed a cushion under you when sitting on them because they are a little worn internally, but we really didn’t spend much time on the couch when we had the island to explore and enjoy. Not sure what else to add other than to repeat that we were very happy with our stay and didn’t have any complaints. Maybe a note is to keep the bathroom door closed always so flies can’t get into the house.

Not suitable for older people

The property shower had mold and the water ran down the curtain all over the bathroom floor. The tea towels were dirty, the washer left in the bathroom was threadbare and full of holes. The fan was filthy and we didn't use the blinds as they were also filthy and obviously hadn't been used for a long time. The t.v only had foxtel and was faulty . The lighting in the apartment was very dim. The two lounges are well past their use by date with little to no padding and harsh to sit on . We needed to use the pull out lounge/beds to sleep on as a back injury prevented using the stairs to get to the bed. The spare mattresses were so thin that it made little to no difference to feeling every bar in the lounge frame. This unit was not suitable as a comfortable place to stay, particularly being older. Not value for money.

Staying in a beach shack

It was very pleasant. we liked the bush around the shack and the short walk through paperbark and vine forest to the beach is lovely. we walked to the pub for dinner and back in the dark. You can hear the sea at night when you sink into the comfortable bed. Only down thing is getting down the stairs to the toilet in the middle of the night! And there is a line down the centre of the TV. Small things.
