Waltzing Matilda Motel
With breathtaking views of Moreton Bay, the modestly priced Waltzing Matilda Motel is located on the renowned Redcliffe Peninsula and is within walking distance of the city's best attractions--including the Redcliffe Jetty. A popular fishing spot and the gateway to Moreton Bay, the Jetty offers tours to Moreton Island--where passengers are likely to catch a glimpse of Humpback whales, pods of dolphins and green turtles. Next door, listen to live music and wander through the aisles of arts and crafts, exotic imports and memorabilia at the Jetty Markets. While the rooms at the Waltzing Matilda are slightly outdated, the motel does offer an outdoor pool, barbecue area and a premiere bayside location, for only $80 AU a night, as of 2010.
