Mooloolaba Anchorage Studio and Courtyard

Hidden down the boat ramp on the left you will find your entrance to Mooloolaba Anchorage studio and courtyard. A few steps more you are on a small beach (as long as the tide is not too high) and overlooking the protected waters of the Mooloola River.
The large courtyard provides enough room for holiday or sporting gear including bicycles, small water craft, fishing gear etc and offers a relaxing sitting and dining area capturing the sea and river breeze off the water. The studio style room has a queen size bed, basic television, 90lt bar fridge, microwave, nespresso coffee machine, toaster and jug, along with basic crockery and cutlery.
The location is close to the Brisbane Road shopping and dining strip providing a range of quality restaurants, takeaway food and coffee options including Bakery, Espresso Bar, Seafood, Japanese, Lebanese, Pizza, and Thai all within 500 metres.
