High Tide Shack on Palmer Esplanade Beachfront - Pet Friendly!

Unwind Holidays presents:

High Tide Shack on Palmer - Pet Friendly

It is located just metres from the water's edge. Enjoy crabbing or squidding from the rocks out the front, or take a kayak from out front and paddle around to the beautiful pristine white sandy main North Beach. It's just a 3-minute paddle or a 7-minute walk along the beach or takes the track above the cliff top.

'Wallaroo Esplanade Beachfront' - Pet-friendly, Holiday House, North Beach

We specialise in short-term/ holiday rentals. It is our number one priority to make your stay most enjoyable and memorable.
Our guests can enjoy a self-check-in property, but our friendly host and booking team are available through emails, calls, and SMS whenever the needs arise. Your privacy and enjoyment are our top priority for a WOW getaway

Wallaroo's Calm Beaches

The beaches fronting Wallaroo boast calm waters, ideal for families traveling with young children. North Beach seems to stretch on forever, starting at the marina and ending at the next town. Go for a stroll on the golden sand and try to find some seashells or join a game of beach volleyball. The protected waters only become deeper very gradually, so you can let the kids play with peace of mind. If you're just looking for some peace and quiet, there is plenty of room to spread out. Meanwhile, Office Beach is located closest to Wallaroo's town centre. This is a smaller beach with an enclosed swimming area next to the jetty. The waters are also quite calm and safe for children.

The Wallaroo Jetty
When many people think of Wallaroo, they think of the Jetty, one of the town's most prominent features. Go for a leisurely walk along the 869 metres of the jetty, which offers plenty of photo opportunities at all times of the day. Watch local fishermen reel in various fish or even squid. If you've brought your rod, join in. Fishing at the jetty is free.

Wallaroo: What To Do In Town
After spending your days outside, you might wish to discover the modern side of Wallaroo. For some shopping, head to Owen Terrace, where you will find all sorts of retail shops and art galleries.

If you would like to stay active, spend the afternoon at the town's newly built sporting complex, where you can go bowling, play golf or participate in a game of croquet. Each sport has its area within the complex, separated by communal areas for visitors to relax.

During your stay, you'll have access to the guest bedroom, bathroom, living room, backyard, and all areas of the house. Please feel free to use any of the appliances or amenities in these areas as well. We take extra care to make sure you have the best experience. Walk into basic provisions in the pantry.

It is located just metres from the water's edge - enjoy crabbing or squidding from the rocks out the front, or take a kayak from out front and paddle around to the beautiful pristine white sandy main North Beach. It's just a 3-minute paddle or a 7-minute walk along the beach or takes the track above the clifftop.

Alternatively, take the car and drive onto the beach so you can pack everything for a whole day spent there.

Take in the views from the front verandah while relaxing with a glass of wine.

Cook a BBQ out the back where there is a second outdoor seating area for those afternoons and early evenings when the front verandah is too hot.

Lovely family holiday
We had a great time staying in this beautiful property. The only suggestions I would make is for some oven gloves , more drinking glasses and more dishwashing tablets. Overall a lovely stay.

Great place to stay
We loved our stay, the house had everything we needed & its layout was perfect. The views are amazing & beach access right out your door. Some feedback would be that the floor near the edge of the kitchen is bumpy, the exhaust fan in one of the bathrooms doesn’t work, it needs more cutlery/crockery or you are constantly using the dish washer, a bigger toaster would be great & the information provided from Unwind & the information stuck to the fridge in the home conflicts each other in some places such as the checkout time & stripping the beds.

Great dog-friendly holiday house with lovely views
The property was great and very relaxing! Nice quiet spot and we loved the views. So great to be able to take our dogs. A few things that need attention: oven needs a good clean and the only heating is in the living areas, so warmer bedding is needed. A coffeemaker would be a good addition.

Lovely location
Plenty of room for two families. Rooms and Bathrooms were modern and clean. Enough cooking utensils/appliances held. However, photos of lounge/living areas differ to what was there. TV signal drops out especially when windy. DVD player provided however selection of DVDs were scratched and unable to view. Overall a lovely stay with gorgeous views of beach/township.

Great to have a modern comfortable place that is properly dog friendly. Dog crate in lounge was a great idea. Comfortable beds, sofas and great showers. The house was not spotless but it was clean, the kitchen was well equipped but could do with a few extra wine glasses. The veranda was perfect except for the wind and the back yard great for the dogs.

Amazing Beach Getaway!
Fantastic holiday house. Amazing location and very quiet neighbourhood. Watched fireworks from the wooden table at the front of the house New Year’s Eve - perfect view!! Kids enjoyed crabbing on the rocks and playing cricket on the front lawn. Already planning to book our next stay. To make the property even better-a quick wipe of the living room walls, a dust of the screen doors for cobwebs, lawns mowed and making sure there is detergent for dishes and hand soap available to use. The photos are out of date on the stayz website-not a true indication of how new the furniture is. These minor things did not inconvenience our stay-just a small recommendation. ❤️

The views of the sea by day are just beautiful & the lights of Wallaroo in the distance @ night were delightful. The sunsets right out the front are a lovely way to end each day. The home is located very close to everything you may need for your stay.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Spacious living area and bedrooms. Two toilets and showers were handy, Well equipped kitchen and house was clean and tidy.Great location, beach 10 min walk, great ocean views.Few repairs required as lid on BBQ broken, owner requested lawn to be watered but hose attachments need replacement due to sun damage.Kitchen oven was filthy needed a thorough clean, dirty dishes in cupboard, limited supply of various glasses.Pictures on website need updating because there were no outdoor blue seats as shown on website, and front verandah table, seat setting which was nicely varnished on website was totally worn out about to fall apart.To finish it off ratsack granules found in one of the bedroom drawer, needs to be cleaned before any kids come there.

GREAT HOLIDAY HOME
It was a fantastic holiday home to stay at! With the views directly onto the beach, however is a little far to walk to an area on the beach safe to swim away from rocks, but is worth the walk. However the quiet area, allowed for a very relaxing holiday that provided lots of laughs and fun times and most importantly, lots of mud crab hunting. Owners of the home are very lovely and always available, which is handy for pack ups and arrivals or any trouble you run into on your holiday. Would definitely stay again!
