7 On Merindah – Quandamooka Country – Coochiemudlo Island, QLD ~Accessibility Review  

My latest accessibility review is on the charming disability inclusive '7 on Merindah,' nestled with charm on Moreton Bay's residential island, Coochiemudlo (the indigenous name, Kutchi-mudlo, for place of Redstone). In Australia, fully accessible holiday homes are a rarity, making 7 On Merindah a unique find. Coochiemudlo Island is largely wheelchair accessible, and will suit many people with disability

Ingenia Holidays Broulee - Yuin country - NSW~Accessibility Review

We arrived to the tantalising sounds of waves on the Broulee Rocks beach behind the dense scrub that separates it from Ingenia Holiday Park. The somewhat tired yet accessible unit has been modified for those using wheelchairs and requiring mobility assistance. However, it wasn't a comfortable stay as there were too many adjustments and workarounds to be made for my situation.

Captains Cove Apartments – Gunaikurnai country –  Paynesville, Vic ~Accessibility Review

Captain’s Cove Apartments was a great place to start our road trip, and we spent two nights and days surrounded by the gentle clink of ropes swaying against sail masts on the many boats and yachts docked around us. This inclusively designed two-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment is a joy to stay in.

Basils Farm - Wadawurrung Country - Swan Bay, Vic ~ Accessibility Review

Disability-friendly Basils Farm on the Bellarine Peninsula is a charming, rustic restaurant with magnificent views and is retrofitted to be wheelchair and mobility aid accessible both inside and around the beautiful gardens. I enjoy their food and service and that they have used common sense and some ingenuity to make Basils Farm dining as inclusive as possible.

Pier St Cafe Portarlington is refreshingly wheelchair accessible and in a beautiful part of the Bellarine Peninsula.

Hyatt Place Melbourne Caribbean Park ( Wurundjeri & Bunurong country) - Accessibility Review

Equal-access accommodation for people with disabilities is very hard to find. It's even harder to find lovely accommodation. Hyatt Place Melbourne Caribbean Park in Melbourne's outer Southeast suburbs is a great option for this mobility equipment wielding gal when visiting family and friends.

Huge Apartment, Moonee Ponds, Melbourne ( Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung country ) - Accessibility Review

I really enjoy doing accessibility reviews. This really large disability friendly and apartment only a few kilometres from Melbourne CBD and Tullamarine Airport is a welcome inclusion for those travelling with a disability and their families and friends. Moonee Ponds is a historic part of Melbourne with a buzzing community vibe. The paths and roads surrounding this huge accessible apartment are a dream to roll on. Inclusive Queens Park is a five-minute easy roll stroll too.
