OFFICIAL STRADDIE BEACH CABIN RATES & CHARGES

.


2 PERSON STAY

Apologies! We are usually all in favour of clear, straight forward pricing that includes the LOT! Under our normal system, fixed service costs (cleaning, linen, service fees, admin, etc) were absorbed by using a progressive pricing system were short term stays started with higher PER NIGHT charges that gradually reduced with the length of the stay.

Under the new Stayz pricing system, that is no longer possible, and as such we were forced to separate the fixed service costs into a separate SERVICE FEE. Pls note that the service fee is currently not fully cost-covering.

The new system however has the added benefit that you will receive an instant & accurate cost total at the time of enquiry followed by a formal quote in our personalized reply asap.

Low >>> Sun - Thu $80pn / Fri & Sat $100pn / Weekly $600. Service fee $100 per stay. Total weekly $700.

  • "Thank you for a wonderful stay at Straddie Beach Cabins! We had a wonderful time. The shack was everything we expected and more. there was great service and communication with the owners and we will defiantly return to stay here again! "
    Cristina, April 2012
     
  • "My husband and I spent 10 days in the Beach Shack. We wanted to relax somewhere close to Brisbane where there are beautiful beaches without staying at a "tourist trap." As Americans, we realized the good value of Straddie Beach Shack versus so many other AU island accommodations. We were not disappointed. The a/c worked wonderfully well, the bed was comfortable, and the kitchen had just enough pots, pans, plates, etc. for us to make quick meals. We were most appreciative of the excellent communication (via e-mail) with the owners. We got the impression the lady at the front desk of what is now called "All Seasons" (where Straddie Beach Shack is located) would have preferred to take a hands-off approach to us (when we told her we were renting #18)---she didn't even let us explain that we only wanted to pay for wireless internet through her office---which the owners instructed us to do. That was a bit "off-putting." In the end, we were very pleased with the low cost of one week of wireless internet (I think it was $30 for the entire week. A bargain in Australia!). We enjoyed the short stroll (less than 5 minutes walk) to the beautiful and practically empty beach (It was non-peak..) that a has lovely trees to use as shade while at the beach. By the way, it's a DOG FRIENDLY BEACH. We enjoyed watching the dogs have the time of their lives! We got our daily exercise by walking up to the grocery store and liquor store (bottle shop); but it wasn't too strenuous of a walk. It's uphill going up and downhill coming back and takes about 20 minutes. We were told that All Seasons will drive/shuttle guests into the small town of Pt. Lookout; but only in the late afternoon. We never used them. For meals, the Bowl's Club next door offers affordable dinners. We found it odd that the bar wanted cash for our bottle of wine and the restaurant accepted our credit card (or was it the other way around?). When you're hungry and don't want to cook or walk too far, I would recommend the Bowl's Club. About 10-minute's walk (in the direction of Pt. Lookout) and you can dine at the Stradbroke Hotel (which is where the liquor store/bottle shop is located---in the basement/lower level---take the elevator down), where you'll have an excellent view of the water while dining. Also, the large flat-screen TV was much appreciated. In addition to the loal channels, a few extras have been added (through Foxtel, as I recall), and you have the option of listening to the music channels through the TV. We enjoyed sitting out on the nice deck/patio in the afternoon, hand-feeding the local kookaburras who came for a free snack. There was another bird that made us laugh with its huge vocabulary. We never tired of listening to the birds. The "bush setting" while sitting on the back deck/patio made the Australian experience more enjoyable. Not only would I stay at Straddie Beach Shack again, I have also recommended it to other Americans who occasionally fly in the Brisbane from their expatriate job assignment in Papua New Guinea. "

  • "Absolutely superb accommodation, all you could need in one compact shack, comfotable beds, great shower a few steps to the pool and a few mins walk to beach...perfect!"

  • "Probably my best stay at Stradbroke Island! The cabin is extremely homey with everything we needed. Plenty of space for a one-week stay. The deck outside was a great bonus, set outward amongst the garden it created a great atmosphere. The additional ability to access the resort's pool, internet, etc was fantastic. "

  • "This was fantastic accommodation. Great set up, not the usual hotel room, modern & simple, lovely furnishings, privaite and quiet, close to the beach and amenities. It was better than we expected and was a great weekend away. Thank you! "
    Emily, October 2011
     
  • "We spent 2 nights at the cabin. It is very conveniently located - close to a stunning beach and away from the road. Really effortless to reach the beach. There are walks towards Lookout Point where we saw whales and dolphins while sipping a latte at the LookOut Cafe. The cabin itself is stylish, modern and well maintained and had everything we needed - including a verandah overlooking a gorgeous Australian native garden. The cabin was cold but once we worked out how to use the reverse cycle aircon and the fan to circulate the warm air, we were very comfortable. Getting there was very easy - we parked in Cleveland, took the water-taxi to Dunwich and got the bus which dropped us right outside the complex. Even though the cabin is located in a bigger complex we didn't feel as though we were crowded. I would recommend Straddie Beach Cabin to anyone looking for a getaway close to Brisbane. "

  • "Great set up in the cabin, perfect for two people wanting to get away from it all. Very clean, modern and comfortable, and must be well-insulated as it was nice inside even with the cold outside! Very convenient location-wise too, such a beautiful beach across the road. We'll definitely be returning to stay here again!"
    Dana, June 2011
     
  • "We had a wonderful time at Straddie. Beautiful shack, great location. Would definetly recommend to our freinds"

  • "Hi Rene and Julie, What a wonderful piece of paradise! Loved you cabin- everything one needs to chill out and relax. Straddi is better than i hoped, not at all touristy in a built up way. Very nice to go to sleep listening to the surf on the beach and wake up to the native birds.I esp loved the little fern walk across the rd to the squeeky white beach- beautiful! Cheers heaps- we look forward to our next visit!"
    Abigail, May 2011
     
  • "We had a lovely stay at the Straddie Beach Cabin. We liked the design, providing everything we needed yet compact. It is perfect for two people and in my opinion it is everything a beach cabin should be. We were happy with the location with beach access only a short walk away, directly across the road. Rene and Julie were a pleasure to deal with."
