About this property

Fantastic location, only a short walk to Jetty Rd or hop on a tram to the city.

Welcome to Blue Door at the Bay, located in the quiet street of Third Avenue, Glenelg East.

This fully furnished single storey 2 bedroom unit with undercover onsite parking is only minutes from the centre of beautiful Glenelg and Glenelg Beach, both only a short walk away.

It is a perfect base for exploring Adelaide and environs, including the Adelaide Hills, beaches and wineries.

Blue Door at the Bay is ideally located to take advantage of anyone wishing to utilise the closeness of public transport, tram or bus. Both are literally a 3 minute walk away. Leave your car under the carport, and use the excellent public transport to get around. The tram will take you direct to the Esplanade on Glenelg Beach or direct to the Adelaide Central Market, Rundle Mall, and leading all the way to the Adelaide Entertainment Centre, passing the Adelaide Casino, and the Festival Centre. The Morphettville Racecourse is just two tram stops away. Adelaide Showgrounds are equally accessible, where spending Sunday morning at the Farmers markets is a must.
Whether you are relocating to Adelaide, working in Adelaide for a few days or a few months, visiting on holiday or enjoying famous Adelaide festivals, this unit is conveniently located. Within a 5 minute walk is Jetty Road Glenelg, where you will find restaurants, supermarkets, 2 banks (ATM), newsagency and chemist.

The main bedroom has a queen bed and the second has two singles.
Aside from the well-appointed modern gourmet kitchen, the spacious lounge has blue-ray player and WiFi for your down time relaxation needs (or if you need to touch base with work or family).

Prefer to walk or ride, access to the famous Mike Turtur Bikeway is located 3 minutes walk away.

The unit is privately owned and operated, fully equipped with all the latest modern appliances you could need to make you feel at home for as long as you stay.

Want the children to relax after a hard day of sight seeing? Sandison Reserve is located just out the front with a well appointed playground, open spaces and public BBQ's and amenities.

STRICTLY no parties or disturbances to other residents.
Sorry no pets.
Non-smoking and no Vaping or E-cigarettes.

This place was perfect for our family of four for our two week stay. Such a convenient location, close to public transport, supermarket, shops and the beach.

Our Glenelg holiday

Our accommodation was very comfortable and was well set up for guests.I just wish there had been more than one laundry sachet for washing clothes. Apart from that we had all the basics we needed. It was well situated with an easy walk into Glenelg shopping area and to the beach and the tram into Adelaide.

Good for a Sailor

I stayed for 10 nights during the sailing championships. 5 minutes drive to the club and close to Jetty Road for restaurants and shopping. My only slight complaint would be the queen size bed. King size would have gained the 5 stars.

The property is exactly what you see in the pictures. It is neat and tidy, well presented with everything you need. Travel size soap, shampoo etc also included. Only a short walk to the tram or stroll to the beach. The host, Jeff, had great communication provided clear accurate information. It was pleasure to stay at The Blue door.
