The addition of a large, friendly, covered outdoor area complete with Weber BBQ, as well as a complete inside re-fit including a new bathroom, has provided a contemporary take on an old style Straddie beach shack. The main bedroom is air-conditioned and private. The second bedroom also has A/C and doubles as a lounging area. Just a hop, skip and a jump to Bob's shop, and a 5-minute walk to Cylinder and Deadman's beaches, Curlew is in a great, central location. Perfect for a weekend away with a young family or a couple with a small dog. The shack has neither wi-fi or TV, so if it's an "unplugged" break you're after, Curlew Shack is the place. Nestled at the bottom of a sloping block, the shack is shaded by several old gums trees and, as the name suggests, a resident group of Curlews provide constant companionship. \*Please note, there is street parking only between September 2025 - December 2025. The driveway in not accessible. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Parking and transport - Car recommended ### Food and drink - Microwave - Oven ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms ### Bathroom - 0.5 bathroom - Shower ### Entertainment - TV ### Laundry - Dryer ### Comfort - Air conditioning ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Location highlights - Near the ocean ### Things to do - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Whale watching nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher ## Similar properties ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/35000000/34020000/34010400/34010320/04fd947a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### STARFISH ON STRADDIE Point Lookout - Sea view - Kitchen - Washer - Pet-friendly 9.4 Exceptional 199 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-08&endDate=2025-12-09&selected=34010320&PinnedHotelID=34010320&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Living area](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/115000000/114120000/114111800/114111776/34ce413f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Contemporary BeachHouse with Bush Outlook Amity Point - Kitchen - Washer - Pet-friendly - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 3 reviews £914 includes taxes & fees 30 Nov - 1 Dec [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-30&endDate=2025-12-01&selected=114111776&PinnedHotelID=114111776&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV, DVD player, books, stereo](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33910000/33906500/33906438/c6c3e12f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Pets Allowed in this fully fenced low set house close to beaches.
