Moffat Magic Beach House

Moffat Magic Beach House is a renovated Hamptons-style holiday house at 51 Grigor Street in Moffat Beach, listed on some platforms as Moffat Beach Magic. For dog owners the headline is the large, fully fenced yard, which is rarer than it should be in Caloundra holiday stock and gives your dog genuine off-lead space on site.

Dogs at the Moffat Magic Beach House

Dogs are welcome, and booking platforms indicate up to two dogs with a small pet fee that varies by channel, so declare your dog when you book and confirm the exact cost with the host. Guests regularly describe the place as very dog-friendly, and the fenced yard is the reason. No strict weight limits are published, but that is not the same as no limits, so check if you have a large or athletic jumper. Ask about fence height and gaps too if your dog is an escape artist.

Pepsi: a fully fenced yard changes the whole trip. You can have coffee on the deck while the dog does laps of the lawn instead of a pre-dawn leash march.

The vibe

The house sleeps a family across three bedrooms with a full kitchen, air conditioning, Wi-Fi and private on-site parking. The feel is quiet, coastal and fresh rather than flashy, in a residential street about a seven-minute walk down to the Moffat Beachfront cafes and park.

Getting there and parking

Grigor Street sits up the hill from the Moffat Beach headland, about twenty minutes from the Sunshine Motorway or an hour from Brisbane. Parking is on-site and off-street, so unloading the dog and the gear is simple.

While you're out there

Moffat Beach allows dogs off leash on the sand only during evening and early morning hours under Sunshine Coast Council rules, so check the signage times and keep the lead on through the day. Jericho at the beachfront is an easy dinner walk, and The Happy Turtle Cafe in Caloundra does a dog-friendly breakfast run.
