Great find
We had a wonderful week in this charming cottage. Newly listed on Stayz, Frank & Carol have thought of the little things that make a difference to your stay. From the recipe books to the sound system to the plush towels, and a kitchen packed with enough cooking items that makes home entertaining a breeze. It's only a 15 min drive from the Port Hughes boat ramp & a 6 minute lazy walk to Moonta Beach. We've already rebooked!

About the host

Hosted by Frank and Carol Petronio

Host profile image
Hi there, we are Frank and Carol. We are Adelaide born and bred and like many Crow-eaters have had a long and deep connection with Moonta Bay. We roamed and swam the beaches and fished the jetties here as kids and enjoy it just as much today as we did 50+ years ago. It is our pleasure to allow you the same opportunity to experience this special place for yourselves, your family and your friends.

Why they chose this property

The magnificent coastline, sandy white beaches and safe swimming environment are instant draw cards. A morning walk along the beach. Dropping a line at either Moonta or Pt Hughes jetty and later enjoying the freshest seafood possible. Cycling around the Moonta Bay, Moonta town, Pt Hughes and even to Wallaroo on the bike track if you feel energetic enough. Watching the sunset and the incredible colours that paint the sky.

What makes this property unique

Our property is designed and styled to make you feel comfortable and relaxed. It is perfectly located to maximise your time and enjoyment around the magnificent Bay of Moonta.
