Coolum Beach · Accommodation
(864 reviews)
Ten acres of beachfront land sitting directly beside the Coolum Surf Club, with Pandanus trees providing shade and the patrolled surf a short walk from your tent peg. The location is the whole argument here. Sites are well-maintained, the camp kitchen is clean, and roughly half the park is dog-friendly, with beach access that also allows leashed dogs. Cafes and restaurants are genuinely walkable. That said, pricing sits at the higher end of the caravan park spectrum, minimum stay rules apply across peak and shoulder periods, and facilities are stripped back: sites, bathrooms, and camp kitchen. No pool, no rec room. A Saturday evening pizza truck does the rounds. Come for the beachfront position and the dog-friendly setup, not the amenities list.
Contact the business for opening hours.
Quite pricy for a caravan park (2 adults +one dog for a powered site for 3days is $262 for a shoulder period). No views from campsites. Many rules about how many nights you have to stay ( minimum 3 nights stay for “catholic shoulder” and we have to stay from 9-12/12 but not 10-13/12 because 13/12 become peak rate and it is minimum of 7 days….). And one vehicle per site, so you can’t have a car and a motorhome, even though there is enough space for it (as it is alright for caravans). No visitor vehicles. Some sites against the bush and road are pretty small, about the width of a footpath...mm.. I would say the least recommended site that in my own opinion and to remind myself of would be site 178 … On the good sides: Dog friendly sites available! Walking distance to the beach ( dog on leash allowed, life savers), shops and restaurants. No constant noise of campers come and go. Amenities seem pretty clean. Next to a skate park. 11am check in (10am check out).
The sites are very well maintained. Camp kitchen is very clean. Dogs allowed in designated areas. The park is right on the beach which is also dog friendly. Heaps of cafes and restaurants within walking distance

Noosaville QLD
Thirty dollars a night, walking distance to the Noosa River, and enough tree cover to forget you're in the middle of town. The Sea Scouts' community campground is grass sites, hot showers, and genuinely friendly staff. Not for big rigs, but perfect for tents and small campers.

Noosa Heads QLD
A well-located Noosa Heads hostel with a lively pool area, beach volleyball court, and a bar that draws a sociable crowd. The front desk books Fraser Island 4WD trips. Proximity to the beach and Greyhound stop is genuinely useful. Book a smaller dorm if noise is a concern.

Autumn in Noosa is genuinely good for families. The water stays warm, the crowds thin, and the flat riverfront paths are pushchair-friendly for kilometres. From calm swimming spots and kid-friendly cafes to holiday parks a ferry ride from the tourist strip, here is the local edit on where to take the kids and how to keep everyone fed.
Beachfront in Noosa means different things depending on where you look. Direct sand access, a five-minute walk, or ocean views from a balcony are not the same thing. This guide is precise about that distinction, organised by budget, and honest about what each property actually delivers. From the surf club-adjacent sites at Coolum to the champagne check-in on Hastings Street.
Noosa is one of the few places in Australia where bringing your dog doesn't feel like an apology. Off-leash beach windows, outdoor cafes with water bowls, and accommodation that genuinely means it. Here is the practical guide: which beaches, what times, where to eat, and where to stay with a dog in tow.
We've stayed here a few times. The location is great to walk to the beach, some sites are lovely for a premium price, and it's neat and tidy. but that's all. I wouldn't recommend it if you've got kids, it's not very kid friendly - cars absolutely race through. Reception is not super friendly. Washing machines work 50% of the time, dryers don't dry properly 50% of the time. At the price per night after travelling Australia, this is the highest we've ever paid p/n. We've stayed in epic beachfront places with waterparks, pools, amazing games and rec rooms, activities etc for significantly less p/n. There's absolutely none of that here - just the site & bathrooms and camp kitchen. Not even a tv room or anything. Honestly only worth about $35 per night if you're adults travelling and it would make sense.
Very happy with our stay. Dogs allowed in certain parts of camping ground, around half the place. Walking distance and easy access to beach, restaurants, and shops. The sea was really warm. Service station on the opposite side of the road to the camp site sells ice for around $3.50, whereas the camp-site sell ice for $6 a bag. Mc D is across the road, as well as a Service station. Some sites are more shaded than others. We were happy with our tent site, 173. We were half way between two amenity blocks and had shading morning and evening because of where the trees are situated. Saturday evening there was a pizza truck. The pizza was delicious and we even had the option for GF.
Just wanted to say the park was really nice – loads of room, everything you need, great showers, kitchen appliances, laundry, and easy access to the beach. All the shops are nearby too. Only thing I didn’t like was the young hot reception girl – a bit rude. But you can’t have it all, right. Anyway enjoyed it very much

Thirty-two Hastings Street is as central as Noosa gets. The apartments are roomy, the pool is compact but serviceable, and the beach is a short walk. Maintenance is inconsistent across rooms, so request a recently updated one. The location alone justifies the rate for most visitors.
