Pinball + Gaming Paradise in Townsville! 5 Minutes from the Airport & Strand

  • A Stay You Won't Find Anywhere Else in Australia

    Our Pinball & Arcade Holiday House is a little different from your average holiday rental.

    With around 20 pinball machines and arcade games all set to FREE PLAY, a private pool, gaming consoles, foosball, board games and plenty of space to relax, we've built the sort of place we'd want to stay ourselves.

    And judging by the feedback, our guests seem to agree. We're incredibly proud to have a 9.8/10 rating from more than 75 guest reviews, making us one of the best-reviewed holiday stays in Townsville.

    🕹️ Your Own Private Arcade

    The games are what make this place special. We've got a large collection of pinball machines alongside classic arcade games, with something for kids, adults and anyone who just loves a good arcade.

    Everything is set to FREE PLAY, so there's nothing extra to pay. Just hit start and play as much as you like.

    🏊 Private Pool & Outdoor Area

    When it's time for a break from the games, you've got your own private swimming pool and outdoor area to enjoy.

    Fire up the BBQ, have a swim or just kick back outside and enjoy the North Queensland weather.

    🎮 Plenty More to Do

    It's not just pinball. The house also has gaming consoles, foosball and a collection of board games, so there's plenty to keep everyone entertained during the stay.

Great family house

This is a great place to stay for a family. You won’t want to leave the house! Everything you could need! Only drawback is majority of the board games were missing parts so unable to play.
