• Estuary Hideaway - Mandurah

    3.–8. mar. 2025, Australien ⋅ ☁️ 24 °C

    Estuary Hideaway- Boulevard Mandurah was way too busy for us so we discovered the Estuary Hideaway.
    Nestled upon the serene waters of the Harvey Estuary, the Estuary Holiday Park provides an ideal blend of coastal and estuarine experiences.
    We must of timed it just right coming at the start of the week and leaving just before the weekend as this place is usually full!
    Mud crab is the thing here, Paul tried but the water went too cold, nothing, not even a bit. There were two blokes next door that come here solely for the crabs, they go out in the boat which makes a difference. One of the guys yes kindly offered to show Paul how to cook and dress crabs for whenever the situation finally arises.
    Each afternoon we would stroll down to the waters edge mostly no one there and play ball with Billy.
    Herons and seagulls hung around the still waters edge.
    The site was quite Sandy and at one point we did wonder if we would get out!?
    We had to have a tyre replaced while we were here which turned into a real mess, waking up to the tyre replaced completely flat to then find out they had changed our front with our spare not replacing the tyre at all and paying for that privilege, in the end it was sorted but we had to check into Mandurah Quay Resort to have the time to sort the issue out. This is the joys of traveling in your home when it needs work, it’s very rare you can stay in it while the work is carried out and sometimes it can be all day! You can't walk around all day with a dog in 30+ heat!
    The Quay Resort insisted on a $200 deposit because we had Billy and of course there’s always an issue and you always end up having to fight for your deposit back, which we did!
