What can I expect when staying at Pod[e]? The layout of the Mulla Mulla pod includes one main and one studio room, both with queen-size beds and linen provided. The main bedroom has a large sliding door which offers sweeping views of the land and coast, leading onto a private deck. Storage is provided in both bedrooms for added convenience. Each pod possesses a uniquely elegant bathroom with many custom features including a hand poured resin bath and vanity with basin. The overhead shower has the soothing effect of gently falling rain whilst boutique products are provided to enhance both the bath and shower experience.
The kitchen includes a three-burner cooktop, speed oven, dishwasher drawer, two under bench bar fridges and most importantly an espresso machine with fresh Boston Bean coffee which is included in your stay. A natural stone bench top flows through the length of the kitchen area leading to the outdoor space where a family sized Weber Q awaits. Some pantry staples are provided and food catering packages can be added on to your stay at the time of completing your booking.
Light up the combustion heater in the lounge area and relax on the couch whilst sipping on a complimentary 23 rd Street beverage. You can enjoy one of the provided board games or books whilst the panoramic window views beckon for you to venture out onto the large deck to indulge in some outdoor entertaining.
Included in your stay at Pod[e] is the E-bike and Coast experience. Each pod has 2x E-bikes, 2x helmets and enough snorkelling equipment for a family of up to four, to use at their own leisure.
We offer a self-guided tour that guests can take advantage of and truly immerse themselves in the beauty and diversity of the Eyre Peninsula.
PLANNING, BOOKING & STAYING
Is there a minimum stay? Pod[e] has a two-night minimum stay which applies throughout the year except for during peak times (public holidays, school holidays, Easter, Christmas, New Years period) when a three-night minimum stay applies.
How do I check-in and check-out at Pod[e]? Check-in time is 3pm - we will contact you prior to your stay with an access code for the key-lock box.
Check-out time is strictly 11am - late check-out is subject to availability and must be pre-arranged and confirmed with management.
We hope our guests respect our property and leave the pod as close as possible to how it was found at check-in. Can we arrange a proposal or anniversary? We are happy to help with these sorts of special occasions, however, you must contact management prior to completing your booking to make sure appropriate arrangements can be made.
Where can I purchase food? You will find a local grocery, shopping, fuel station, essential services and café/pub in the town of Streaky Bay, just a 20-minute drive from the pod. Pod[e] offers food catering packages which can be ordered at the time of completing your booking.
What should I pack? Please pack according to season, however it is always best if you include comfortable exploring shoes, bathers, something for the cooler mornings and nights, sun protection and repellent. If bringing kids please feel free to pack push bikes (E-bikes included in stay are for 16+ only)
Are the pods family friendly? YES, being family people ourselves, we encourage families to experience Pod[e] and the Eyre Peninsula together. There are two bedrooms both with queen-size beds.Please note the beds do not separate into two single beds.
Can we bring our beloved pets? Sorry as much as we love pets of all kinds, due to regular bating in the area and to protect the native fauna we cannot allow pets at the property.
THE LAND
Access to the Pod? Do I need a 4WD? Both pods have all weather access and are suitable for 2WD and all other vehicles.
Can I bring a boat/caravan/motorbike? Each pod has a solar carport that fits two cars comfortably, you may wish to store one car and a small boat or motorbike here instead of two cars. Caravans will need to be stored outside of the carport – please include this in notes/special requests at the time of making your booking so we can provide instructions on where to park. Are there fish cleaning facilities? No there is not. A fish cleaning station is located at Moore’s boat ramp in Streaky Bay. Please refrain from filleting/cleaning fish inside or outside of the pods.
Are the E-bikes free to use? YES! The e-bikes are included in your stay at no extra cost. We have a suggested self-guided tour you can experience using e-bikes, snorkelling equipment and picnic equipment.
Are there any walking tracks on the property? We encourage guests to go for walks through the scrub that is located at the bottom of our property. Here is where you will really experience untouched beauty. It is a very quiet secluded area with native shrubs, flora and fauna. We ask guests to be mindful and respectful of their surroundings and to take note of where they enter the scrub as it is quite large and we would hate for you to get lost in there!
Is there a pool? No - but there are plenty of beaches to explore and cool off at all around Westall.
