Streaky BayHotel Motel

Built in 1866 as the Flinders Hotel, this heritage pub sits on the beachfront at Streaky Bay on the western Eyre Peninsula, some 700 kilometres from Adelaide. Upstairs, a handful of balcony rooms open through French doors onto views of the jetty, foreshore and town, fitted with cast-iron beds and Chesterfield chairs; motel rooms sit behind. Continental breakfast is included, and the ground floor runs to a bistro and bars rather than gaming. A country hotel for slow coastal stops, fishing and surf.
