Guest Reviews
- Jodie (7/5): Convenient to where we needed to go, easy checkin and had everything pretty much that we needed. - Beautiful view of the beach from the balcony. Spacious room and great to have kitchen, lounge and dining spaces. No air conditioning.
- Pavle (9/5): -
- Denise (5/5): -
- Carol (8/5): -
- Rona (7/5): Enjoyable, relaxing short stay - Location was very good, a short walk to the beach. Our 3rd floor apartment was spacious. The overall apartment was clean but the fly screens in the shower and onto the verandah were really grubby. It only takes a quick wipe down to make them clean.
- Stacey (8/5): A great mid week getaway - Close to the beach and local attractions
- Vanessa (8/5): Perfect Straddie - We repeatedly stay here, it’s a fantastic location with good amenities. Starting to struggle with the walk-up stairs (must be my age!)
- Veronica (10/5): Relaxing and comfortable - The room was really great, looked out straight to the beach Only a small thing but and egg flipper would have been good. The weather but the Anchorage could not have done anything about that.
- Sabir (10/5): -
- Patrizia (10/5): - la posizione direttamente sulla spiaggia
- Aile Veatriz (8/5): -
- Angela (10/5): Wonderful and relaxing stay surrounded by nature - Beautiful views. Friendly staff Signage from the beach could have been clearer
- Sally (9/5): First visit to Straddie and would love to come back. We only stayed one night - wish it had been 2. Short walk and you w - The views were amazing. Looking out to the ocean. Really quiet and peaceful. Bus stop right outside. Everything you needed in the apartment. No shower gel but there were 2 small bars of soap.
- Nikki (10/5): Great place to stay near dive centre - Beautiful location, good size, good value, nice staff Nothing
- Elin (8/5): Flott sted i rolige omgivelser på stranden - Beliggenhet på stranda, og buss rett utenfor hotellet.Stort rom med balkong med utsikt til havet Liten seng og ikke aircondition men det var vi klar over. Litt langt til matvarebutikk for oss uten bil
- Maresa (8/5): - At the beach A bit old
- 黃 (10/5): -
- Ian (7/5): -
- Annette (8/5): -
- Welch (7/5): Loved location, great staff, need to update room.Walking distance with lots of options for meals. - No breaky which we knew, great location, comfy beds Air conditioning sub standard, never came across this before. Because of air con tube couldn't shut window which made street noise noisy . Also air con machine noisy and cool did not circulate the room. Shower grout dirty.
- Bill (10/5): An awesome location close to everything with ocean views and the sound of the ocean making for an amazing stay, thank yo - Proximity to the beach All good

- Karen (9/5): -
- Hugo (8/5): -
- Vidya (10/5): - The staff are amazing, helpful and informative. Location spot on. Room was simple but just what we needed and expected. Highlight were location and staff. The walk straight out of the hotel onto the beach is second to none, especially at sunset.
- peter (7/5): - NA
- Amanda (9/5): - The position and size of the unit. My matress was too firm and the bedroom screen door rattled with the wind. Otherwise perfect.
- Patricia (10/5): Had a great time - There was no breakfast, wasn't expecting any. There was a snake in the pool - love wildlife.
Saw 45 kangaroos, but no Koalas.
Washing machine was an added bonus. Possibly, the snake in the pool, luckily I had just got out.

Manager at checkin not very welcoming
- Li (9/5): -
- UTPAL (9/5): - I liked the sea-view room, and the landscape was excellent. The environment was calm and quiet. The famous Home Beach is adjacent to the resort, and it truly dominates the natural surroundings. Overall, I felt very happy staying here, surrounded by nature. The resort doesn't provide Shower gel and Shampoo.
- Petrus (8/5): We loved our stay and would stay here again - The location was really good. Very close to the beach with shops and restaurants nearby There was no aircon in the unit, which was mostly ok with the sea breeze, but an aircon would be nice

- sylvia (7/5): Older property, bit tired. Was pleased we were on first floor would not liked to have walked up more stairs to the upper - Location. Access to the beach. No air conditioning in living room.
Noisy, bedroom is right next to busy road. Balcony furniture took up too much space. Balcony doors hard to open.
- Lyndel (8/5): -
- Sylvia (10/5): Perfect day away! - Really comfortable beds, very convenient location, ample parking, direct beach access, good wifi and plenty of space in the rooms. The linens and towels were really lovely! There was no need for a/c and it was great to hear the ocean and enjoy the breeze while sleeping with the windows open, but safe and no mosquitoes. Really nice staff, very accommodating. The description of the property is exactly what we found, so there were no surprises. We like it because it matched our expectations.
- anagram2002 (10/5): Best spot on Straddie - Spectacular location with sea view from all units, well equipped kitchen, roomy, plenty of parking, bus stops out front, best price.
- Wayne (9/5): - Location and hospitality. The pool was very useful Nothing really some dated areas such as pool and two sun bathing chairs would work better than a lean to on the deck
- Martina (9/5): - Location, right on the beach It was a little tired/dated
- Kareen (7/5): -
- James (10/5): Recommend for any beach lovers - Beach access Nothing
- Tayla (10/5): - So close to the beach Nothing!
- Mick (10/5): Great value for money - Great location pretty much on the beach nice pool walking distance to Beau’s club and shops couldn’t ask for better for the value.
- Carly (9/5): - Location Could have had refreshed towels etc after the first few nights

- Jennica (10/5): -
- Giovana (8/5): -
- Matt (10/5): Great apartment in an ideal location on beautiful Straddie - Location

- STEVE (8/5): -
- Marshall (10/5): Relaxing and peaceful 😌 - Everything Nothing
- matthew (8/5): Had a great time staying on the island - Weird air conditioning set-up, but really nice view and living area. Convenient to walk to some amenities (restaurant and bowlo). Easy walk to unpatrolled beach thru the mini rain forest. Easy open parking even for a large car. Bus at the doorstep! Bedroom furniture
- Adela (8/5): - Wir hatten einen schönen Ausblick ans Meer. Die Wohnung war sehr geräumig und die umliegende Natur war wunderschön. Die Austattung ist einfach, aber man hat alles was man braucht. Das WLAN war leider sehr schwach.
- Maria Gillgren (10/5): - Was a wonderful relaxing time and the accommodation was perfect for our visit
- anthony (7/5): Fantastic stay in beautiful Stradie -Apartment had a great view! - Fantastic location with great balcony view to the roaring ocean -with direct access to the beach - beautiful. Only a 1 km walk along the beach to Port Lookout . We had spacious 2 bedroom apartment for 4 people . A good well kitted out kitchen but no frills . Stradie was great Lacking in any character- no effort at design or decoration and seemed generally tired and a bit unloved - Cupboards smelt musty .Only one sun lounger and one chair on balcony
- Kellie (7/5): Management aware of internet and TV reception issues said it was being looked into - The pool was lovely
The room clean and comfortable Internet was sketchy kept dropping out
Tv reception was crap cut in and out constantly
No AC told to leave the screen for to the balcony and bathroom window open for breeze
When we did get on Netflix we had to watch on a log in that was some one else’s
- buckenmeyer (8/5): -
- Ronona (10/5): amazaing - No breakfast wasn't included, we made our own, because we could, having a fridge, stove top and microwave everything was great and handy
- Daniela (8/5): -
- Renee (8/5): Fantastic views and comfy rooms - Right on the beach. Sat on verandah and watched whales. Nice pool. Super friendly staff with great recommendations. Basic room furnishings typical of a budget beach abode. Full kitchen with dishwasher. Adequate bathroom - save hot water ours ran out. Everything you need for a relaxing time. Holiday spirit. Would stay again. Bus stop right outside. Handy. Noise from bus station and road outside. Climb up the stairs to room worth the view but bags heavy.
- Grant (7/5): Value for me money, close to everything needed - Close to eateries and beach The wifi for the TV didn’t work the whole trip and only had ABC channels to watch.
- Sharon (9/5): -
- Danuta (10/5): -
- Anne (9/5): Trevlig lägenhet vid stranden - Vi trivdes här, trevlig lägenhet med fin utsikt från balkongen på andra våningen och direkt tillgång från hotellet till stranden Home Beach, där vi kunde ta ett dopp i havet. Bussen stannar precis utanför hotellet så att det är lätt att ta sig hit från färjan och vidare till Point Lookout delen där t ex Gorge Walk promenaden börjar. Kostar bara 50 cent. Lägenheten hade separat sovrum med skön säng. Det fanns allt man kan behöva i köket, även kaffe/te/mjölk. Tänk dock på att det finns bara tvål i badrummet, ta med eget shampoo och balsam. Det finns en pool som såg okej ren ut, men vi provade den inte. Finns även bastu som kan bokas, men kan tyvärr användas bara när receptionen är öppen, kl 9-12. Trevlig personal som svarade på våra frågor om scooter uthyrning, badstränderna och vandringslederna på ön. Det som störde oss lite var att grytor och kastruller hade fett på botten som bildade en del rök när vi skulle laga mat på spisen. Det fanns ingen spisfläkt tyvärr och därför luktade lägenheten matos.
- Dylan (8/5): -
- Gary (7/5): -
- Norma (10/5): It exceeded our expectations. - The room was very spacious, clean, BUT the view from the deck was superb.
- Mantovani (9/5): -
- Wendy (9/5): - Very comfortable bed. Great size fridge/freezer. Balcony area fabulous. Should provide insect spray, gap under main door allowed mozzies to get in!
- Amanda (9/5): -
- Keelan (8/5): - Accommodation. Not many places open due to our time of visit.
- RhiannonSyd (8/5): -
- Kerrie (9/5): - Location
- Hayley (10/5): Fine time to unwind and enjoy mother nature at her finest. - Apartments were quiet, clean and well maintained. I have been sharing my positive experience with friends and family and intend to book again next year. I also liked the fact that their were places to eat and drink locally. Easy and saves cost by catching the passenger ferry and bus to right outside the accommodation. Daily walks up and down the coast was a positive! I have no complaints about the accommodation
- Norm (7/5): -
- Nadine (9/5): - This older style resort is in a prime spot. Views to the ocean were glorious.
Property was immaculate, pool lovely.
I will definitely return. No air conditioner but ceiling fan was okay at this time of the year.
- Saint (9/5): - Access to the beach, facilities and the heated pool. Damiens advice on what to do and where to go. Point lookout and the Gorge walk was Spectacular! Ji Nothing.
- Kathleen (9/5): We enjoyed our stay and would consider booking again regardless of the comments - Location was really good, it was easy to walk to the Home beach or further along to Cylinder Beach.
The Balcony was great and you could see the beach and water through the trees. I thought pool was a bit dirty there were lots of bugs in the water.
We were only provided with two bath towels, no hand towel or mat for getting out of the shower.
Dishwashing liquid was very weak and dishes required more that one wash which in my opinion just uses more hot water
- Anita (8/5): - The amazing view to the sea from our balcony. The bed was comfortable. A choice of pillows... not only high pillows, but low pillows.
The apartment was sparkling clean. Some things are a little dated.
- Julie (6/5): Amazing weather and friendly people - Location was great although if we didn't have a car the buses were not reliable.
The room had a lovely breeze and looked out o er the beach. Liked the extra single bed....very handy for day sleeps. The floor was plain concrete and still had the hole marks from pulling up the floor coverings. Finishing the floor would make the unit so much cozier for couples. The couch was really uncomfortable. Great spot though!!
- Giselle (10/5): amazing 10/10 experience. wish we could stay longer - our ferry was leaving at 2.30pm so they kindly let us check out late. very kind welcoming workers nothing
- Beryl (9/5): Beautiful Straddie - Convenient location. Close to the beach and good access. TV reception poor.
Bed a bit uncomfortable for us.
- Iris (10/5): - Everything! Staff were amazing, and room was very clean.
- Tina (9/5): Really liked accommodation apart from Bthrm. Not a lot to do generally on the Island though. - Not used to paying for motels etc so thought price high but realise it isn't.
Nice and quiet. Fantastic view and balcony . Loved the Good kitchen but was told there wasnt one so didnt get to make use of it. Really quite clean. Bedding and towels pleasantly clean. Bathroom could do with an upgrade, it's just too old with some of the old structures still in place. Bit off putting.
- Plesk (9/5): Total relaxation - get back to nature - Fantastic location, beautiful view, apartment was well equipped.. staff were lovely and knowledgeable - a pleasant getaway for 4 nights to rest and recharge the batteries
- Wackley (10/5): Would definitely return - Location Clean modern unit
- Linda (8/5): Great location and views, great value for money - The views
The veranda
The fact there was aluminium foil and cling wrap in draws. Bit small kitchen
