We had a wonderful stay! Perfect for our group of friends, having a trip away to relax & catch up. An easy walk to the pub, supermarket and beaches. Loved all the art accents throughout the house. Even enjoyed the novelty of the toilet out back!

Perfect Beach Shack in great location

We loved our stay at the Straddie beach shack! Super convenient locatio, close to Deadman's, Cylinder and Frenchman's, and a stone's throw from Bob's convenience store. The house is cosy and comfortable, beautifully decorated and thoughtfully stocked with everything you could possibly need - particularly in the kitchen. We made use of the huge BBQ, and had lovely lazy afternoons lounging in the hammock in the back yard. Would not hesitate to recommend!

Perfect Island holiday

Awesome location, great little beach house. Very relaxed feel, felt like a home away from home for our family of 5. Toilet being located just outside in laundry might have been tricky with younger kids, but no issues for us. A few little things needing some love but what I would expect for a beach house. Hosts were great, easy to communicate with, responsive and very helpful. Thanks for having us.

Straddie classic

A super cute original beach house - well appointed, very comfortable and great location. We especially loved the back patio looking onto a lovely tropical oasis, complete with visiting kangaroo! And the position is perfect - a short stroll to beautiful Deadman’s but also close to Cylinder, Frenchies, Home and Main. Having the supermarket and pub so close means we did not have to use our car at all. We’ll be back!

A bit overstated

The property was advertised as 2 bathrooms There is only a shower and hand basin inside and the only toilet is outside in the laundry … not what we expected for the price No curtains in the 3rd bedroom and no ceiling fan in that room either Outside gardens and yard are very rough Nice shack but really not worth the money compared to other properties

Response from VrboOwner on 12 Feb, 2023
Thanks for your feedback. Apologies if the listing was not clear about the bathrooms. The description states that one includes a toilet and vanity only and the other has shower and vanity only. I will double check to see if I can make this clearer in the listing. The third bedroom has two excellent tower fans to keep guests cool in summer. We have not owned the property long and the garden is our number one priority. At the time of your stay the Island had had two months of unusually dry weather so the grass may not have been at its best. You may have noticed we have recently installed and planted new gardens with beautiful natives; some of the plants are young still finding their feet. In coming months and years we expect the garden to be even more lush and inviting. Our house is one of the cheaper holiday homes in this central part of Point Lookout and benefits from easy walkability to all beaches shops and the hotel and all of our past guests have reflected positively on their time at Bulubara House.

Straddie Classic Get-a-way !!

A traditional beach holiday home, with a stylish touch. Great location, easy walking distance to Cylinder beach and the Point Lookout walk. We were delighted to see whales, dolphins, turtles at this time of year. The perfect house to relax and unwind, with stylish décor and close proximity to shops / cafes / gelati . 10 out of 10 for price and location.

The perfect Straddie getaway

You can't help but relax into the Straddie vibe at Katy's place. An original 50s beach shack, it looks simple on the outside, but inside is a beautifully furnished and comfortable home away from home, with everything you could want for an enjoyable stay. The beds are really comfortable (something I often struggle to find in holiday homes), the kitchen is really well equipped and there are plenty of options to keep active adults, teenagers and kids entertained. And for those more interested in relaxing, there is a hammock and a beautiful day bed out the back and plenty of wildlife around. One of the best things is the location. Once we arrived we didn't take the car out except to go 4wding. It's an easy walk to all of the beaches, the gorge walk, the Straddie hotel and a range of cafes and takeaway places. And the local foodworks is just across the road! So no need to worry about bringing too much with you. Thanks Katy for a wonderful stay. We'll definitely be back.

Relaxed beach weekend

The house is homely, spacious and beautifully decorated. The kitchen is well appointed - a cook's delight! Beaches and the shop are easily accessible. We really enjoyed our stay at Katy's and wish we could have stayed longer. If you're lucky, you may spot a kangaroo in the garden!

The perfect getaway!

Loved our time away! This house is in the perfect location - close to everything but so quiet and peaceful. Right across the road from the shops, 1 minute walk from the bus stop, 5 minute walk to the most beautiful beach! Super comfortable and cozy and it had everything we needed. We can’t wait to book again. Thanks so much for having us at your lovely home.

So cool and convenient

The host has thought of everything. We travel to Straddie a lot, this is the most conveniently situated house we have ever booked. Four minutes walk to Deadman’s beach and less than 10 minutes to all the best beaches, so we could always find a protected spot, regardless of wind. And the shops and pub are a short stroll as well. The house is a classic, groovy beach pad, it has everything you need to make your stay stress free. This is our new favourite. Already looking for dates to stay again.
