Our first trip to Straddie and we were very happy that we chose Anchorage on Straddie. Beach front location is a gem. Great central location. Excellent for couples or families. Stan's Chicken Bar next door definitely worth a visit as is the Bowling Club a 4 minute stroll away.
We’ve just had the most amazing stay at Anchorage and can’t praise it enough!
The location is spot on, the view from the balcony was jaw dropping and Damian was a fantastic host!
We can’t wait to come!
Hi.
I now live in the UK but grew up in Brisbane. Visited here with all my family over the week in October. It’s on the beach👍 No long walk no car journeys. The place is spotless. BBQ area is like a B&Q show case, there is even a fridge there. The manager is helpful and friendly. Parking spaces are big so it’s easy to unload. The rooms are tidy and cooking facilities are great. Good strong showers. Myself and family have holidayed all over Europe in beach villa’s and apartments and the Anchorage smashes them all for six in terms of position and value. Can’t wait till we return.
We regularly stay at Anchorage. It’s the best beachfront accomodation we’ve found. The studio room is larger than most one bedroom units, it has a kitchen, queen bed, couch and dining area as well as a full sized bathroom. All balconies have sea views and you sleep with the ocean waves in the background.Damian and Leanne are wonderful hosts and the place is always beautiful. Will definitely be back.
Staying at Anchorage meant so much to us. I have been housebound and partially bedridden with a severe fatigue illness for over a year and we took a bit of a risk going there as I wasn't sure I'd be able to make it to the beach.
But the rooms being so close to the water made it possible, and it was incredibly therapeutic to be able to swim and just breathe in the fresh sea air.
Our unit was spacious and clean with a great view of the water. The proprietors are lovely and accommodating, and the food at the attached cafe - Stan's Chicken Shack - had incredible chicken burgers and melt-in-your-mouth sweet potato fries.
I felt a real difference after our return, and we hope to be able to make it back as much as possible.
It was a wonderful beach retreat and we are very much looking forward to our next visit!
