Bonnie Dune - Pet Friendly Holiday House

Bonnie Dune Beach House – Fabulous location family and pet friendly accommodation.

Description

Bonnie Dune Beach House offers comfortable accommodation, five-minutes’ walk away from two beaches – the world renowned Kings Beach and dog-friendly Shelly Beach. The house has an older-style feel and charm from a bygone era while still providing all you would want in a home so close to the beach.

Self check-in via a lockbox at the property.

* PLEASE NOTE - NO bed linen (sheets/pillowcases) bath or beach towels supplied. BYO linen - or linen hire details provided on request. *
Otherwise, the house is fully equipped for a self-catering stay.

The house is suited to couples, families, and their dogs,

Location
Situated 400 metres from the full time patrolled Kings Beach and 450 metres from beautiful Shelly Beach, Bonnie Dune Beach House gives our guests easy access to beaches, an oceanfront pool, and a wonderful walking track along the headland.
The beach house is around the corner from the Kings Beach Tavern and the Mets Surf Club; walking distance to pubs, beachside restaurants, funky coffee shops and the local Shelly Beach Corner Shop.

Beachside walking tracks connect guests one way to Moffat Beach, Tooway Creek and Dicky Beach and the other way to Happy Valley, Bulcock Beach and further along to the quiet Pumicestone Passage waters of Golden Beach.

Living
Bonnie Dune provides guests with an open plan living and dining area upstairs. There is a modern kitchen capturing wonderful ocean views. Two areas for quiet reading and relaxing - one in a sunny open area off the kitchen leading to the deck, and one tucked away from TVs perfect for an afternoon of rest. There is another sitting room with a TV downstairs to provide separate areas for relaxing. Most rooms have ceiling fans for your comfort and two bedrooms are air conditioned. The sea breezes flow through for those balmy summer days and there are two deck areas upstairs providing ocean views, where you will love to sit and relax.

For those rainy days when the kids are itching to get out of the house, there is a large undercover area outside for them to set up their games.

Bedrooms
Bonnie Dune has 4 bedrooms.

PLEASE NOTE - Linen (sheets, bath and beach towels) is NOT provided

The bedding configuration is –
Bedroom 1 – Queen with TV and air conditioning
Bedroom 2 – Queen
Bedroom 3 - 2 singles
Bedroom 4 - 2 single bunks (sleeping 4 singles) and air conditioning

Outdoors
Bonnie Dune features three outdoor entertaining areas, all under cover and two with wonderful ocean views. The yard is fully fenced for children and pets to play.

For the Kids
The kids will love their stay, with Bonnie Dune being a short stroll to Kings Beach and Shelly Beach. Kings Beach is a patrolled, safe beach with a free salt water pool, children playgrounds and a water feature play area. There are rock pools to explore at Little Kings, along with fishing off the boat ramp and shell collecting. Kings also has a designated surfing area. Shelly Beach is an interesting, dog friendly beach to explore, with pirates caves and large expanses of rock pools to investigate at low tide, a children’s playground and a winding beach front bike / walking track all the way up the headland to Moffat Beach. Bonnie Dune is around the corner from Kings Beach Park, a well-equipped children’s park, with a flying fox, basketball courts, playground, bike tracks and playing field. There are many nearby areas for a relaxing BBQ including along the Anzac Walk headland track with stunning views over Kings Beach and the Pacific Ocean.

Pets
Pets are welcome to stay. With a fenced and grassed yard, your furry family members can enjoy the holiday as well. The house is a short stroll to dog friendly Shelly Beach.

The house and grounds present so nicely. It’s a real home away from home, and an easy 10 minute walk to Kings Beach. The table tennis downstairs was a big hit with the teenagers! It was a privilege to stay here.

A house to relax in
Bonnie Dune was a fantastic property for our group of friends. It gave us all our seperate sleeping spaces, plenty of comfortable places to sit and relax both inside and outside. Each of us commented on how clean it was when we arrived. Plenty of dishes, cutlery and glassware. It felt like we had rented someones beach house not just an investment. It made the whole experience so much nicer and more relaxed. We loved the glimpses of water from the back deck and how close it was to walk to the beach, coffee and restaurants.

Most pleasantly charmed and surprised!
The upstairs living was beautiful balanced with a stunning view from the rear balcony. The sleeping areas were all well set out and suited us families perfectly. Loved the extra areas upstairs and downstairs. Location to the beach was a 5mins stroll,so convenient to eateries, bars and cafe's. We wished we could give more than 5 stars, had a wonterful stay, thank you Bonnie Dunne!!! Can't wait to visit again soon.

A Place for Everyone
Hi We had a great stay at Caloundra, the house provided a space for everyone. We loved the verandah with views of the Ocean. The kitchen had lots of extras to help making cooking easy, with oil, foil, wrap etc. The house was close to everything and we enjoyed walks down to the beach. Many thanks

Really enjoyed!
The house was great, even with the warm weather. I would suggest a pest control, there were a lot of cockroaches in the kitchen and on the deck. The kids were also a little bummed the body boards werent able to be found. We would stay again though 🙂

Quick Christmas getaway
Fantastic property in a great location. Walking distance to the beach and the tavern / surf club. Plenty of space for the kids and adults to spread out. We had 2 families & there was plenty of room for everyone. Loved the ping pong table. Had a beautiful sea breeze to keep the upstairs area cool and loved hearing the waves crashing at night. Only thing I would recommend is to bring coils and bug spray as in the evening there were some mosquitoes. Will definitely visit again.

Bonnie time had by all
Comfortable, quiet, well stocked kitchen. Plenty of comfortable seating and dining options within the property. Parking was good. Fully fenced, however our very small dogs would have been able to escape ( they weren’t with us). Walking distance to surf club, beach, local tavern and outdoor ocean pool. Will consider staying again.

Perfect beach home, great location
This property was a great find, perfect location to the beach, shops and local restaurants. The area is ideal for familes with 4 parks within a short walk. The beach is stunning and the pet friendly beach is a lovelt stroll away. The property was clean and very quirky. We loved it. The only minus is the no linen, so having to make your own beds on arrival. However the host provided us with a company that delivers linen. Check in was convenient and the home is well equipped. I would stay there stay and would recommend it to friends and family. Perfect beach home with beautiful views.

Weekend Getaway
We found Bonnie Dune to be exactly as advertised. I received an email with check in information a few days prior to our stay so it was an easy process. The house is old and quirky, but had everything we needed. It was also very clean but had an old house smell, particularly downstairs in the bedrooms. There are external doors everywhere (3 upstairs and 3 downstairs), and steep narrow stairs so I wouldn’t recommend this property for young children. The outdoor area under the house has a ping pong table which provided hours of fun. We took our two toy cavoodles and found that the yard was not small-dog proofed at all as there are big gaps under the fence and under gates. Location was excellent, very quick walks to cafes, the patrolled beach, dog beach and rock pools. Kings Beach wasn’t as dog friendly as we thought it would be, with most of the esplanade area displaying signs saying that dogs are prohibited. Had we known, we would have stayed in Caloundra where it is much more dog friendly. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.
