Original Straddie Shack with Air-conditioned Comfort

Comfortably sleeping 6 guests, the main bedroom offers a double bed, while the sleepout offers another double and a tri-bunk. The neat and tidy bathroom has a shower over the bath with a separate toilet and the small, covered patio area allows you to catch those afternoon seas breezes after a day of sun and surf.

Kick back and relax in Betty’s Place – an oldie but a goldie!
