We loved the Black Pelican and Moreton Island.
The house was terrific, it all that we could have asked for and more. Loved the open plan living space and the proximity to the water and the Gutter Bar made for a fantastic Easter stay.

Kooringal Moreton Island
We had a great week on Moreton and this house was perfect for our family of 6. Loved the kitchen space flowing out to the deck. Having never stayed at Kooringal before we had to watch the tides a bit more than other stays on the island to plan our activities. Bed linen is provided but no towels so make sure you pack 2 per person.
