Outside, the 12-foot trampoline and outdoor seating with a BBQ setup create the perfect atmosphere for unwinding. After a day in the surf or on the sand dunes, rinse off in the warm outdoor shower.
We’ve got your beach days covered with two large inflatable paddleboards and soft roof racks for estuary adventures, plus boogie boards for tackling the waves or riding the sand dunes.
When it’s time to explore, you’re just minutes from the Wood St shops, where you’ll find a range of eateries, from pizza and burgers to sushi and kebabs. Whether you’re here to surf, dine, or simply relax, “Sunsets on Spinifex” has it all.

Relaxing Stay by the Beach

Everything about our stay was wonderful, including the location, amenities, and the house itself, which was well equipped for 8 of us. The stand up paddle boards and games room were also great fun. Thank you to the host for making us feel welcome and responding quickly to any queries.
