Rockpool Beach House is a spectacular BEACHFRONT holiday house in the heart of Port Denison/Dongara.

Picture yourself relaxing on Rockpool's big alfresco deck, with a
panoramic view across the beautiful foreshore fringed with 100 year Moreton Bay Fig trees. Watch boats returning home with their daily lobster catch, families fishing on the jetty, couples strolling back from the beach and the sun dipping over the ocean at the close of the day.
You won't want to leave!

Within a two minute walk is a country style bakery, newspapers, supermarket, take-away outlet and Tavern.

Rockpool is spacious and superbly equipped with luxurious, comfortable fittings including a pebble rimmed spa with Moulton Brown accessories and a fun beach shower in the garden to refresh after a morning at the beach.

The generous living areas have expansive views through large glass windows and include a flat screen TV, DVD player, DVD's, stereo and a large library of books and magazines for your enjoyment.
For the execultive (if you need to keep in touch), we now have BROADBAND INTERNET access.

The kitchen is very generously stocked with everything you need including a dishwasher, oven, microwave and servery to the outside deck barbecue.

The separate rumpas room is popular with the children and teenagers. They can romp on a large daybed piled with cushions and watch DVD's on their own TV. Included are bean bags, games, toys, childrens books and table tennis for the teenagers. A playground is located on the grassed foreshore opposite Rockpool.
It is fun to borrow our crab nets to catch a feed of crabs from the jetty!

Plenty of room for boats, bikes & surfboards in the spacious yard and a new boat ramp is located conveniently close by.

Perfect for family groups, a gathering of friends, honeymoon or a romantic getaway. Sleeps up to 12 guests.

Just bring food and beach towels!

"Magnificant house, great facilities. Had an enjoyable weekend crabbing, fishing, counter lunches and plenty of drinks on that fantastic deck".

"Well done on a fantastic well appointed house, fantastic views, close to the pub!. Something for everyone. We had a ball"
