12th Tee BNB and Villas

12th Tee BNB and Villas is a small complex of self-contained suites and villas in Bargara, on the Bundaberg coast, set up so you can walk to the beach and the shops rather than drive. It suits dog owners who want a private base with a backyard feel instead of a motel corridor.

Dogs at the 12th Tee

Dogs are welcome, but only in designated pet-friendly rooms, so book one explicitly. The two en-suited King Suites take pets for short stays, each with a private lounge room, small fridge, microwave, toaster and tea and coffee facilities. The two-bedroom self-contained villa is the other pet-friendly option, with queen bedding, a lounge and dining area, and access to the shared backyard and pool. The four-bedroom Executive Villa is the exception: pets are not allowed there at all.

A pet fee applies to the short-stay suites, but exact amounts are not itemised online, so confirm the fee and that a pet-friendly room is actually assigned to your dates before you pay. Booking.com's listing is the quickest cross-check.

Worth knowing

Guest reviews consistently mention separate bedrooms, king beds, patios and coffee facilities, plus the short walk to both the beach and the shopping centre. One thing to check: the shared backyard areas around the villas are not a fully fenced private run for every room, so keep your dog supervised outside. Bring your own bowls and bedding, as pet amenities are not listed.

Getting there and parking

The complex sits within walking distance of Bargara's beachfront and shops, with off-street parking at the property for guests. Bargara is roughly 15 minutes' drive east of Bundaberg along the Woongarra Scenic Drive.

Close by with the dogs

For off-lead time, the Bargara off-leash dog park and the fenced Mary Kinross Park dog park are both a short drive away, and the esplanade makes an easy on-lead walk. If you prefer a holiday-park setup, Discovery Parks Bargara also takes pets in designated cabins and sites. More options are in the Queensland dog friendly stays guide and the Bargara destination guide.
