Wallaroo Esplanade Beachfront – Pet-Friendly Holiday House, North Beach

Located in the peaceful and family-friendly neighbourhood of North Beach, this welcoming holiday home offers a genuine escape for those seeking coastal simplicity and a laid-back pace. Wake up to sea breezes, enjoy a leisurely kayak, or cast a line straight from the rocks out front—this is coastal living made easy.

We specialise in short-term/ holiday rentals. It is our number one priority to make your stay most enjoyable and memorable.
Our guests can enjoy a self-check-in property, but our friendly host and booking team are available through emails, calls, and SMS whenever the needs arise. Your privacy and enjoyment are our top priority for a WOW getaway

Wallaroo's Calm Beaches

The beaches fronting Wallaroo boast calm waters, ideal for families traveling with young children. North Beach seems to stretch on forever, starting at the marina and ending at the next town. Go for a stroll on the golden sand and try to find some seashells or join a game of beach volleyball. The protected waters only become deeper very gradually, so you can let the kids play with peace of mind. If you're just looking for some peace and quiet, there is plenty of room to spread out. Meanwhile, Office Beach is located closest to Wallaroo's town centre. This is a smaller beach with an enclosed swimming area next to the jetty. The waters are also quite calm and safe for children.

The Wallaroo Jetty
When many people think of Wallaroo, they think of the Jetty, one of the town's most prominent features. Go for a leisurely walk along the 869 metres of the jetty, which offers plenty of photo opportunities at all times of the day. Watch local fishermen reel in various fish or even squid. If you've brought your rod, join in. Fishing at the jetty is free.

Wallaroo: What To Do In Town
After spending your days outside, you might wish to discover the modern side of Wallaroo. For some shopping, head to Owen Terrace, where you will find all sorts of retail shops and art galleries.

If you would like to stay active, spend the afternoon at the town's newly built sporting complex, where you can go bowling, play golf or participate in a game of croquet. Each sport has its area within the complex, separated by communal areas for visitors to relax.

During your stay, you'll have access to the guest bedroom, bathroom, living room, backyard, and all areas of the house. Please feel free to use any of the appliances or amenities in these areas as well. We take extra care to make sure you have the best experience. Walk into basic provisions in the pantry.

Whether you're planning a weekend getaway or a longer beach break, this property delivers the essentials in a tranquil setting. Thoughtfully appointed for comfort and functionality, this four-bedroom retreat provides a homely feel and everything needed for a memorable seaside holiday, including your four-legged family members.

Prime Coastal Location at Wallaroo Esplanade Beachfront

You’ll find yourself just metres from the water’s edge, where your mornings can start with a paddle around to North Beach—a pristine stretch of soft white sand perfect for a refreshing dip or relaxed sunbake. If you're feeling adventurous, walk the scenic track above the cliffs or enjoy the 7-minute barefoot stroll along the shoreline. The best part? You can pack your beach gear and drive directly onto the sand for an easy and fun-filled day in the sun.

From early morning fishing or crabbing at the water’s edge to golden sunsets viewed from your front verandah, this property makes beachside holidays simple and enjoyable. Bring your kayaks, bring your rods, and bring your sense of adventure.

If you're hungry, there are a number of restaurants and takeaway spots in town. For dinner overlooking the water, stroll along the foreshore and pick the eatery of your choice. For less formal dining, grab something from one of the takeaway places and have a picnic by the beach.

Your Seaside Home Away from Home

Wallaroo Esplanade Beachfront is equipped with everything you need to relax and settle in. The open-plan living and dining areas are spacious yet cosy, with cooling breezes and natural light filling the space. A fully equipped kitchen makes self-catering easy, and outdoor cooking is a breeze with a BBQ area out the back—perfect for shaded alfresco dinners when the front deck gets too warm.

Spend your evenings soaking in the peaceful surroundings, with the sound of waves in the background and a cool drink in hand. The home is private, secure, and designed for ease—whether you're travelling as a couple, a family, or a group of friends.

Plenty of room for two families. Rooms and Bathrooms were modern and clean. Enough cooking utensils/appliances held. However, photos of lounge/living areas differ to what was there.

Great dog-friendly holiday house with lovely views

The property was great and very relaxing! Nice quiet spot and we loved the views. So great to be able to take our dogs. A few things that need attention: oven needs a good clean and the only heating is in the living areas, so warmer bedding is needed. A coffeemaker would be a good addition.

Great to have a modern comfortable place that is properly dog friendly. Dog crate in lounge was a great idea. Comfortable beds, sofas and great showers. The house was not spotless but it was clean, the kitchen was well equipped but could do with a few extra wine glasses. The veranda was perfect except for the wind and the back yard great for the dogs.

Amazing Beach Getaway!

Fantastic holiday house. Amazing location and very quiet neighbourhood. Watched fireworks from the wooden table at the front of the house New Year’s Eve - perfect view!! Kids enjoyed crabbing on the rocks and playing cricket on the front lawn. Already planning to book our next stay. To make the property even better-a quick wipe of the living room walls, a dust of the screen doors for cobwebs, lawns mowed and making sure there is detergent for dishes and hand soap available to use. The photos are out of date on the stayz website-not a true indication of how new the furniture is. These minor things did not inconvenience our stay-just a small recommendation. ❤️

GREAT HOLIDAY HOME

It was a fantastic holiday home to stay at! With the views directly onto the beach, however is a little far to walk to an area on the beach safe to swim away from rocks, but is worth the walk. However the quiet area, allowed for a very relaxing holiday that provided lots of laughs and fun times and most importantly, lots of mud crab hunting. Owners of the home are very lovely and always available, which is handy for pack ups and arrivals or any trouble you run into on your holiday. Would definitely stay again!

Our stay at High Tide on Palmer

The property was in a beautiful position overlooking the sea and the activities of the harbour. The beds were very comfortable with supplied linen. There was a bar fridge as well as a full-sized fridge. The kitchen was easy to use with a full set of cooking instruments. Maybe a few more soft drink glasses would be helpful.

Great for two families

The communication and check in process was very simple. House was great for two families of 4 as the house is split into two wings with a bathroom on each side. Bath for the little ones was a bonus. The back lawn is all fenced in and while there is a road out the front door it is very quiet so the kids could ride bikes. The kids also loved the rock pools out the front.
