We had a beautiful relaxing break at Brendan’s place. Beach access is as close as walking 3 houses up, the beds are comfortable, there is a great deck out the back and Brendan is a wonderful communicator and generous host.This place had everything we needed for us and our poodle with a lot of great walks and other beaches a very quick drive away as well. Especially appreciative that our poodle was allowed inside and we will definitely be back. Thanks Brendan

Host Brendan has made it very easy to stay. He has thought of everything. This place is a home away from home. Brendan answers queries promptly and check in was a simple process This property allows you to have your pets inside but you will spend your days on the awesome back deck listening to the ocean and soaking up the sun. There is a bar fridge on the deck so drinks easy to procure. There is the most fantastic walking area at river mouth - acres of sand to explore and it’s a one minute walk away. The house is clean and beds are extremely comfortable. This is our third stay at this property and I highly recommend it.

We loved our weekend getaway at Elliot Heads, the house was just perfect it had a beautiful beachy feel and had everything we needed. Absolutely fantastic location with walking distance to the beach and cafe which had the best ice creams for our Grandkids who live in Bundaberg. Would definitely recommend to friends as it really was the perfect place to stay.

The best dog friendly place we’ve ever stayed at!
From the moment we walked in the door, we loved this place! Everything you could need and more to have a nice comfortable stay for you and your dog/s! Us humans enjoyed the fully equipped kitchen, smart TV, beautiful balcony where we ate all of our meals and the convenience of a fully equipped laundry. But the most important guest (our dog,) was impressed by the huge grassy back yard, the comfy couch he was allowed to snooze on and the short walk to the beach.

The Perfect Getaway
We had such an amazing stay at this beach house in Elliott Heads! It was perfect for our little family — including our two puppies, who absolutely loved the space to roam and relax. The house was super comfortable, well-equipped, and just a short stroll to the beach (which made all the difference with kids and dogs in tow!). We had everything we needed, and the communication from the owner was spot on, friendly, helpful, and easy. As someone who loves to cook while away we weren’t short of all the essential equipment as well as an epic BBQ. It was such a peaceful, relaxing getaway. We’ll definitely be back!

Well appointed home, that has everything you need. Also located very close to the beach which was amazing. Great verandah to sit out on. The beach was dog-friendly on-leash so our dogs loved it, also a great yard for them to run in.

We had a wonderful stay at this pet-friendly cottage! It was perfectly appointed, cosy, and felt like a charming home away from home. Every detail was thoughtfully arranged, making it the ideal retreat for both us and our furry companion. The host was incredibly responsive and ensured we had everything we needed throughout our stay. A genuine thank you for sharing such a beautiful holiday home—we look forward to returning!

Perfect Beachside Vibes
Great house with everything and more that you might need. Great and secure yard for dogs. Communication with host was excellent. Perfect location. Our dogs are like our children and for them to be easily and happily accommodated was a fabulous bonus. Very relaxed beachside home. Thanks BB.
A perfect stay for our family! Comfortable house and facilities. The yard and back deck was great for our dogs. Enough room for us to bring the boat and paddle boards. A very short walk to the beach but longer walkways to various lookouts. We saw whales from the submarine lookout, explored the rock pools, swam at the patrolled beach and went paddling in the more protected area. Great spot!
