Its home to us and wed like to impart a little of that sense of belonging on to you. If Happyshack cant help you we¢ll find someone who can. Welcome to Robe.

Great space and location.
The house suited our family's needs very well. There were plenty of kitchen utensils, pots & pans and pantry supplies. It was a short walk to the town beach and shopping centre and there was more than enough parking for 3 utes and a large boat.

" Beautiful Robe! "
Starfish Blue was a great place to stay. (The only problem was the clothes drier didn't work in the middle of a wet winter.) It was great to be able to walk down to the main street for dinner, play golf, go for lovely walks, visit the lovely shops and the boys ( 11 and 13)did some mountain bike riding and befriended a fur seal at the Marina. We will be back!! Excellent! Thank you for letting us stay at such short notice! We were meant to be in FNQ !! Annie

Escape to the cool coast
Great layout & facilities, it might hold 10 people, but 2 or 3 live so comfortably that it's difficult envisaging anything else. Quiet & comfortable within walking distance of cafes & shops - the only place in SA not to reach 40 degrees on that day, but didn't matter really, because the aircon is so efficient that we hardly noticed. Love to return one day.

About the host

Hosted by Happyshack

Host profile image
Happyshack have been a resident of Robe for countless generations (the last four are still ambling around, the rest lie in peace in our beautiful, historic and fascinating Robe cemetery). We have current generations of family in the town running and working local businesses, on the land farming magnificent lamb and beef, in the vines at Mount Benson making succulent reds and crisp whites and on the boats bringing in their quota of fresh crayfish.

We’ve spent our childhoods roaming Robes pristine beaches and investigating the rock pools, attending local sporting events, tobogganing down massive sand hills and camping in backyards. Our teenage years wandering aimlessly and parking on the beach with the music on as teenagers do, swimming, surfing, boarding, kayaking or just plain burning in the sun. We’ve driven down, on to Long Beach in the family car with a BBQ, esky and the kitchen sink and spent the entire day and most of the night there. We’ve skinny dipped in the seclusion of moon light and had camp fires on the beach and reminisced about the good old days. We’ve had the pleasure of waking to the sound of distant waves rhythmically crashing on the shore and to the idling of the diesel engine boats preparing to make the voyage to sea.

Our explosive Christmas tourist season enables us to have so much more than your average country town of 1300 permanent residents. There are specialty clothes and home wares stores, beauty and massage services, divine cafes and restaurants, expansive pubs with live music and poker nights, and every second hand and antique store you can think of. We even have a specialist coffee brewer, ice cream parlour and our own double cinema.

If you haven’t guessed by now, we love Robe, its home to us and we’d like to impart a little of that sense of belonging to you – our guests at Happyshack. Give us a call, if we don't know the answer, we definitely know someone who does.
