Iconic Australian beachside shack, 2 min from the sea.

Located just a stone's throw from the ocean, Redbeard's beach shack offers easy access to pristine shores and a variety of water sports. Whether it's surfing, kite surfing, fishing, paddle boarding or just beach combing, there's something for everyone.
The sound of waves crashing and the salty air create a perfect backdrop for relaxation and adventure.
Outside, a small deck to enjoy morning coffees, brunches, long lunches while soaking in the ocean views or take a scenic five minute stroll to the stylish Colourpatch cafe/bar with stunning river views.
The beach shack is not just a place to stay, but a gateway to unforgettable experiences by the sea.
It truly embodies the laid-back Australian coastal lifestyle!

The place is entirely yours. There is plenty of parking with room for a boat too!

A family hideout with enough space for everyone

We are a group of 6 (mum, dad, 3 teenagers 15,15,17 and 11 year old). We enjoyed our stay very much. The host’s thoughtful presentation and welcome chocolate/coffee was an instant hit for all of us. Thank you so much for sharing this uniquely beautiful hideaway with us. Looking forward to visit again soon!

The perfect beach shack across from the ocean

We had an amazing experience staying at this lovely and well decorated house. We found ourselves upstairs looking out to the ocean and hearing the waves crashing, ready books at night: the owners were very thoughtful and made the trip a very memorable one. Thank you for having us, our dogs loved the outdoor area and the big yard, running around like there was no tomorrow.

A lovely relaxing break

We were not 100% sure about how our stay would be, as the photos were through mirrors etc , which although artistic , did not give a real impression of the rooms available. It also listed as having a pool and spa, which we were actually relieved to have the owner confirm that it did NOT have, as it was ringing alarms bells as too good to be true. In reality it is a lovely property with lots of books , games, nice extras , good warm shower , and an unpromoted upstairs room where you can view the ocean, relax and read books, and in our lucky case, view the Aurora Australis. !! We did go outside to view this beautiful phenomenon properly, but the upstairs room helped me see from the warmth of inside that it was worth getting up in the night 🙂 I would also like to say that our dachshund dogs loved the garden which was safe but had lots of places for them to explore. So we have found it a beautiful location and wonderfully peaceful with friendly locals.
