Pet friendly stay close to the beach

Litoria Mission Beach is a pavilion home located in the beachside village of Mission Beach. Tucked against reserve and less than a minutes’ walk (about 150m) from the beach, you’ll experience the best of both worlds when you stay at Litoria. Kids love the free splash pad, playground, skate park and basketball court just a 5–10min walk away. Ask us about the free passes to the Mission Beach Aquatic Centre with billabong, lap and hydrotherapy pools and kids splash pad.

Whether you’re escaping the hustle and bustle for a weekend or wanting to stay a little longer, Litoria is more than just a place to lay your head—it’s a tropical holiday experience.

Designed for the tropics, you’ll love Litoria’s breezeway and living pod that opens up on three sides to capture the sea breezes. With the bedroom and living pods joined by decking, 2 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms, free Wi-Fi and a fully fenced yard, Litoria provides the perfect getaway for couples or small families (including the furry kind).

The space
Litoria was designed for holidaying in the tropics—the perfect a couple or small family getaway. We’ve done many road trips staying in some great holiday houses and we wanted to include the best bits in our little piece of paradise.

Experience nature without compromising your creature comforts with the modern open plan design. You’ll enjoy rainforest and garden views from the kitchen, living and dining building (pod) which opens up onto the outdoor living area—the heart of the house. Why not whip up a gourmet dinner in the fully equipped kitchen (down to the kitchen scales), throw a sausage on the barbecue on the undercover patio or brew up an early morning coffee and enjoy the birdsongs on the back deck before the rest of the house rises!

At Litoria the indoors merge with the out, providing a relaxed resort feel. Living and bedroom pods are connected by a decked breezeway, interspersed with gardens and a water feature, which captures the cool sea breezes. Our modern bathroom also embraces our tropical surrounds, opening up onto private garden courtyards.

Fully pet friendly with concrete floors and fences, there is no need to leave your furry friend at home. We allow pets indoors but not on the furniture. An additional cleaning fee will be charged if your pets have been on the furniture. Pet bowls are also provided.

We provide a welcome kit on arrival with dishwashing liquid, dishwasher tablets, washing powder, toilet paper, hand wash and shower gel—just enough to get you started. There is a Woolworths supermarket 5mins drive around the corner.

To make your stay comfortable we’ve also included:
• free Wi-Fi
• television and soundbar in the living area (sound bar has wireless speakers that can be removed to create surround sound)
• 50 inch smart television in Living Pod and a 32 inch TV in the main bedroom
• board games
• fully equipped kitchen with walk-in pantry
• cookbooks
• Nespresso machine
• dishwasher
• barbecue
• ceiling fans and air-conditioning throughout
• fully fenced garden
• undercover parking.

We also offer free passes to the Mission Beach Aquatic Centre. Ask us how!

Configuration
As a pavilion home our bedrooms are spread over two pods (buildings), however for couples or small families we offer access to just one of the bedroom pods at a reduced nightly rate. You will still have exclusive use of the property, but access to one bedroom pod only. The main bedroom pod has two bedrooms, ensuite, powder room and laundry (with washer and dryer). All bedrooms have air-conditioning, a ceiling fan, security screens on opening windows, a wardrobe, bedside tables and lamps.

Note: while there is a separate powder room with toilet and basin in the main bedroom pod, if you choose this option then all visitors will need to share the shower in the ensuite.

Main bedroom pod
Master bedroom (sleeps 2)—1 x queen bed, ensuite with private garden courtyard, walk-in-robe and television.

Bedroom 2 (sleeps 2)—1 x double bed

On request, you can opt to stay in the second bedroom pod instead. This pod has 2 bedrooms (bedroom 3 has 1 x queen bed and a television, bedroom has 2 x single beds). Both have air-conditioning, ceiling fans, security screens on opening windows, a wardrobe and bedside tables and lamps. However, this will mean no access to a laundry during your stay. If this option suits you better, you must confirm with Melissa prior to booking.

The couples and small family rate, allows a maximum of 4 people. For information about the whole house (sleeps up to 8), please see the Litoria Mission Beach.
We also offer a 1 bedroom at a reduced rate, please refer to Litoria Mission Beach-1 bed for more information.

Guest access
As our guests you will have exclusive access to the house and fenced gardens.

Please enjoy the house as if it were your own. If you have any questions or would just like to know the best place to grab a bite, then please contact Melissa anytime.

As with many seaside towns, mobile phone coverage does vary with provider and location depending on tower signals. If you are with Telstra or Optus you will experience the best coverage. Unfortunately, mobile phone coverage can be an issue for Vodafone users. At the house, connect to our free WI-FI and enable WI-FI calling on your phone.

Woolworths supermarket opens six days a week, but it’s closed on Sunday’s. There is a mini-mart and fruit shop, located in the main Mission Beach township, that open on Sunday’s for any essential supplies.

Mission Beach has some great cafes and restaurants spread across the four seaside villages. Most are only small, so we recommend you make reservations especially for dinner.

A beautiful place to stay
My husband and I really enjoyed staying in this place. It was even nicer than the photos and so well supplied. The people that run the place thought of everything you could ever possibly need. I had bought some things to cook and realised that I didn’t have any oil and there it was. This happened time and time again, where you would be looking for something and there it is and in ample supply. The hosts really ensure you have everything. It was also really clean too which was very important to us. I will definitely stay here again if I am ever in Mission Beach.

Lovely relaxing stay in contemporary style house.
We loved that we could have our dog inside. We loved the pavilion style layout of the house. Even though we didn’t cook as our stay was short, everything you would need was supplied. We will definitely be back for a longer stay next time. All in all our stay was thoroughly enjoyable. Kate

nice spot but wished we had never booked it. Dirty floors, cooktop, fridge etc and rude owner.
O.k, but had trouble with one key and the owner was most unhelpful, claiming that there were 4 keys, clearly 3 and one broken, even blaming us. General cleaning O.K but missing some floors including outdoors, fridge, barbie (also broken) & cooktop.

Relax at Wongaling
We had a great experience from start to finish. Melissa assisted us with a change in our booking dates and also provided assistance during our stay. The property is less than two years old, backs onto the forest and is one street back from the beach. It has been well fitted out with all the luxuries of home and had a couple of brand new bikes that were much appreciated (cycling around the Mission Beach area is very safe and often on designated cycle paths) Can highly recommend for a relaxing getaway.

Lovely house in a beautiful, unspoilt part of tropical North Queensland
Perfect location literally 150m from stunning Wongaling Beach. The house was clean modern and well appointed with quality finishes. We truly appreciate being able to bring our dogs who had a lovely time pottering around the securely fenced garden and enjoying beach walks. The real bonus was the view of rainforest from the deck. It was the perfect spot for some morning yoga really adding to a relaxing stay!

We felt extremely at home at the property as we were able to bring our dog. It was a safe place for him and so clean you would never know another animal had been there. The property was extremely clean and well appointed with everything you could possibly need to feel at home. A very short stroll to the beach and some beautiful walks around the area.
