Imagine the smell of salt air, the sound of water lapping...
The Salty Dog is a haven, floating just offshore, a space that is both cosy and open to the water, a wooden boathouse for two that invites you to relax and just 'be', to go off grid and reconnect with mother nature at her best, with the feeling of peace and the world is left behind.
There's something both mesmerising and healing about the sea that rejuvenates the body, mind and soul...
The Salty Dog has been set up as a romantic getaway for two - one loft bedroom with queen bed and luxurious flax linen bedding. There is also a casual space under the large opening skylight window with beanbags upstairs where you can read, play games or just relax. Downstairs is the combined lounge dining and kitchen - windows all around so you really get a sense of being on a boat on the water. A continental breakfast hamper is included in your booking. There is also a bathroom with electric flush toilet, vanity, basin and shower. Please note there is no 240V power on board… only a 12V system with 3 USB charging points with lightning cables to charge your phone. If you are bringing a computer or camera gear, please make sure you charge before you come aboard.
Outside there is a ladder for easy access straight into the water, a dinghy with oars and also an outdoor hot/cold shower for use after a swim. The back deck is perfect for those quiet nights with a loved one enjoying a gin and tonic and cheese platter while watching the sun set over Pittwater - what a perfect way to end a day.
"My partner and I loved our stay at The Salty Dog! From the moment we saw the vehicle that was to take us to the house, we knew we were in for a special, unique stay with lots of wonderful touches - and we were! Everything about it was beautifully presented and considered. It was incredibly well stocked and the complimentary breakfast was a real treat. As dog lovers, the view of the local dog park from the deck also provided a lot of entertainment. We’ll definitely be back in the future!"

Great place and everything was more than I expected; Judi was so friendly and helpful in explaining everything you needed. The place is amazing, clean, quiet and has everything you need. I love the BF special, the fresh orange juice and cheese!
