Step into the timeless charm of Grandad’s Beach House, a lovingly restored retro shack offering a cozy, waterfront escape filled with character and family spirit.
Grandad’s Beach House, originally a humble fishing shack, has been transformed into a warm and inviting four-bedroom retreat that beautifully balances nostalgia with comfort. Every detail reflects the care and spirit of Kevin Doolan—“Grandad Bribie”—whose legacy permeates this special place. The home features one bathroom and an air-conditioned kitchen and living area, designed to keep you comfortable year-round while you soak in the breathtaking views of the Glass House Mountains and the tranquil waters of Pumicestone Passage.
The open living space flows effortlessly into the heart of the home, creating an environment perfect for gathering with loved ones, sharing stories, or simply relaxing with a good book. Step outside to witness spectacular sunsets over the water, or take a leisurely stroll just across the road to the pristine beach for a day of sun and surf. When you’re ready to explore further, the island’s main shopping centre is only a short drive away, providing convenient access to shops, cafes, and local attractions.
Grandad’s Beach House is more than just a holiday rental—it’s a sanctuary where laughter echoes, memories are made, and every guest becomes part of its enduring story. Whether you’re seeking peaceful solitude or joyful family time, this waterfront gem offers an authentic coastal experience that will keep you coming back again and again.

The property has so much potential, great location, new complex and a good layout. Unfortunately the owner has not maintained the unit well, it was not clean, there were cockroaches, there had been a leak from the unit above resulting in the floor tiles buckling and cracking. To top it off we had to bring our own linen an and towels.
To the owner, get real and short these issues out. Grant

Hi Grant, we appreciate every review we receive even if we do not necessarily agree with them. All reviews give us an opportunity to improve our level of service which we are always wanting to do. We do apologise that there was a leak from the above unit during your stay however please understand this was not within our control or the owners. We attended and had the issue rectified immediately upon your report. The entire complex recently had a pest treatment which is why there was one dead cockroach found in the unit during your stay. Again we are very sorry this happened but sadly this is not within our control either. Regarding the linen please note it is clearly advertised before booking that if you wish linen to be supplied it is at an additional cost. Please understand it is done like this to keep rates as low as possible. If linen was to be included in the rate you would be paying for all four beds of linen even if you only used two of the beds. We have this system to avoid guests paying for something they do not use. We wish you all the best and safe future travels.
