Mandurah Ocean Marina Chalets

Mandurah Ocean Marina Chalets are self-contained chalets right in the Mandurah Ocean Marina precinct, an easy walk from the Eastern Foreshore boardwalks and the marina's cafes and restaurants. The catch for dog owners is a simple one: exactly one chalet is pet-friendly, and it is strictly subject to prior management approval. Book ahead and get the nod first, because the single dog room books out and unapproved pets can mean eviction without a refund.

Dogs at the chalets

Pets are accepted in one designated chalet only, and approval must be requested directly before you book, not ticked as an afterthought. Phone +61 8 9535 8173 and confirm availability for your dates, any pet fee, and the house rules in writing. The operator's policy page is blunt about enforcement, so treat the approval as essential paperwork rather than a formality. Specifics like size limits and fees are not published.

Close by with the dogs

The Eastern Foreshore is on-lead territory, with wide paths along the water, grassed reserves and cafes where dogs are welcome at outdoor tables. For proper off-lead time, the City of Mandurah designates the Halls Head Dog Beach stretch for off-leash exercise, a short drive north along the coast, and the Mandurah Fenced Dog Park in Dudley Park gives a secure run inland. For coffee, Perch'd sits by the water and Murphys Irish Pub is a dinner option in town. If the pet chalet is taken, Mandurah Caravan and Tourist Park is the fallback to check.

Max: One dog chalet, no exceptions. Lock in approval before anything else, because walking in with a dog and no nod is how people lose their booking and their money.

More options across the state are on the WA dog-friendly stays list, and the Mandurah destination guide covers the rest of the city.
