Sea Shanties

Top choice in Brisbane & Around


Dotted with upcycled sculptures and tropical plants, this waterfront oasis offers seven gorgeous, self-contained cabins. Lime-washed timber floors and stylish furnishings deliver a chic, nautical look, and each comes with fridge, hotplates, microwave and coffee machine (BYO grinds). Facilities include a well-equipped outdoor kitchen and BBQ area, lounge, private jetty (complimentary snorkelling gear available) and laundry.

Wi-fi is limited to the communal lounge, though you'll hopefully be too busy staring out at crystalline waters from your deckchair.
