Cape Gloucester Resort is a casual, beachfront stop near Hideaway Bay on the western side of the peninsula, known for its sunset views and relaxed tropical dining, and dogs on lead are welcome across its outdoor grounds and restaurant areas.
The pet policy. Dogs are welcome on lead in the ground-level outdoor areas, including the Bali huts, grass table areas and paved sections, and in the outdoor restaurant seating. Reports on whether pets are allowed to stay overnight in the rooms are mixed: some guest feedback describes the resort as pet-friendly for accommodation, but the resort's own social media has previously indicated pet access is mainly for day-trip dining rather than room stays. Confirm at booking whether your dog can stay in-room, and bring your own water bowl since this is not guaranteed onsite.
The place. A casual beachfront resort with restaurant and bar, known for its western-facing sunset views and relaxed, welcoming atmosphere for travellers and locals.
Getting there and parking. The resort is at 128 Gloucester Avenue, Cape Gloucester, a drive in via Proserpine or Bowen. The location is remote, so plan for a proper drive rather than a quick detour. Private parking is available onsite.
Who it suits. Owners after a low-key beachfront meal or drink with their dog, rather than a guaranteed pet-friendly room, unless the resort confirms otherwise at time of booking.
Before you book. Call ahead to confirm current pet accommodation rules, book your table in advance, and mention you are bringing a dog so staff can seat you in one of the dog-friendly outdoor areas.

Best for a sunset dinner stop with the dog rather than banking on a pet-friendly room. Confirm accommodation pet rules directly with the resort before you commit to a stay.
