A great stay at Maki Shak, Maroochydore

Our family of 5 and 2 small dogs stayed in the pet friendly Maki Shak. Great location, secure for the dogs and plenty of cooking and takeaway options after a day at the beach. Good value for money.

Beautiful little property, close to the beach and shops. Everything was clean, there were adequate facilities for lounging, making dinner and spending time together. The huge secure yard was great for our youngest pup to experience his first trip away and also meant we could relax. The teens were annoyed at the lack of wifi (but needed a detox anyway) and went off exploring the beach, op shops and even wandered down to Sunnybank Plaza. We are definitely looking at visiting again, but for longer next time.
Beautiful

Great Location

Located in a quiet neighbourhood, this well equipped house was perfect for us adults and our 2 dogs. We had no need to use the car throughout our stay, as everything we explored, was within walking distance, including the beach, Cotton Tree CBD and Sunshine Plaza. Thank you for providing pet friendly accommodation in a fabulous location!

Secure & Safe Good location

The quaint house was spoilt by no air/con in the main living room and we happened upon one of the hottest weekends in January. Kitchen was well appointed and lovely new bathroom. Beds and lighting not great. Overall not good value for $
