About this property
STARFISH ON STRADDIE
"Starfish" is a comfortable 1 bedroom plus bunk room cottage, close to natural bushland and only 1 kilometre from the beach (Please scroll down to bottom of first page to see exact location on local map)
Starfish has everything you need for a stress free beach holiday.
Winter brings the majestic Humpback Whales on their annual migration to Hervey Bay. A short drive to lookouts and from May to August, you will see them heading north. From August to November they return to their summer home in the Antarctic waters. Other whales can also frequent the crystal clear waters off North Stradbroke Island.

Island features
Pristine beaches Beautiful headland gorge walk, including sightseeing Picture yourself barefoot on a pristine beach, not a care in the world. Sun glistening through crystal clear blue water, dolphins surfing the waves. Seagulls, terns and oyster catches go about their day on the beach too. You may spot a kite or eagle gliding above the dunes. This is a small taste of what is awaiting you. To experience all North Stradbroke Island has to offer, a pleasant trip across Moreton Bay is necessary. Regular vehicular ferries and passenger boats depart from Cleveland, a bay side area, south east of Brisbane. Ferry and passenger boat trips depart daily from 5am, until late, depending on day of week. More about that later, but it must be said that this relaxing trip will de-stress and unwind you in preparation for your stay in paradise. A 15 minute drive from Dunwich, were the ferry and boat terminals are, is Starfish.
Located in Point Lookout, this cottage is by the sea. The area's natural beauty can be seen at Naree Budjong Djara National Park and Naree Budjong Djara Conservation Park, while North Stradbroke Island Historical Museum and North Stradbroke Island Historical Museum are cultural highlights. Jet skiing and kayaking offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with cycling and hiking nearby. Visit our Point Lookout travel guide

Fantastic place to stay. Very clean and both our needs and our dog's needs were met. Lovely hosts too.We hope to go back soon.Thank you both for a lovely stay
Exactly What you need for an adventure on Straddie! A comfortable place to end a long day of adventure, a board game and DVD filled bolt hole when the rain comes. Truly dog friendly (so many properties only allow the dog outside), and the exact break we needed. Close to home beach and within mins of the middle of point lookout. Wonderful weekend with my partner, 8yr old daughter and our pup. We adored our first trip to Straddie, followed the recommendations from Carolyn and Mal and will be back to stay again!
Fantastic little cottage. Perfect for the two of us. Comfortable bed and was fitted with all the amenities we needed. Loved the deck, where you could see a smitten of the water. Good location. Will stay again!
We have stayed here 4 times now and it’s our go to Straddie accommodation. Hosts are lovely, location works for us and it’s very affordable. Our very anxious pup likes it here. Just right for a couple and small to medium sized dog
Spotlessly clean, quiet location, comfortable beds and all facilities you need for a comfortable stay and your pet can stay too, couldn't ask for more. Super fresh fish available from your friendly hosts next door too.
Can walk to the beach and pub if you're physically fit (about 2.5K with hills) so you can enjoy a drink or two with a meal and walk home safely burning off some calories as a bonus.
Starfish is absolutely the perfect place to stay at Point Lookout. It’s a great location ( need a car), quiet, clean, well equipped and super comfortable. Highly recommend.
Thanks so much Carolyn.

Lovely house with plenty of room and fully equipped. Relaxing balcony with a view of Moreton Island. Easy drive to Point Lookout and Cylinder Beach. We will stay there again if we have the opportunity.
Great location can even see a glimpse of the ocean from the front deck. Bit going on in the front yard with old machines and some gardening work but was pre warned and really wasn't that big of a deal. Would definitely come again.
