Frequently asked questions

Which area of Russell Island is best to stay in for pet-friendly hotels?
The best area to stay on Russell Island for pet-friendly hotels is the central precinct around the main ferry terminal.

This area is the island's primary hub, offering the most convenient access to amenities and transport. You'll find a small selection of shops, a café, and the local RSL club within walking distance of the terminal. The foreshore here provides open spaces for dog walking, and the terminal itself is the gateway to exploring other islands in the Southern Moreton Bay.

For families travelling with pets, staying near the ferry terminal is particularly convenient. It means less travel time with luggage and pets upon arrival and departure, and easy access to the inter-island ferry services for day trips.
What pet-friendly activities should we do in Russell Island?
The best area to stay for pet-friendly activities on Russell Island is near the main village centre and foreshore, particularly around The Esplanade and Jackson Road.

This area is the heart of the island's activity, offering easy access to the ferry terminal, local shops, and several public spaces. The foreshore along The Esplanade is a key feature, providing open areas superb for walks with your pets, often with views across the water. It's a relaxed, coastal environment.

Couples travelling with their pets will find this area particularly convenient. You can enjoy strolls along the waterfront, stopping at one of the pet-friendly cafes for a coffee. Many of the island's walking tracks, which are suitable for dogs on leads, are also easily accessible from this central location, allowing for scenic adventures together.

Solo travellers with a pet will also appreciate the ease of access to amenities and walking routes. The main village provides a friendly base, and the open spaces along the foreshore offer plenty of opportunities for exercise and fresh air with your companion.
Can I cancel my pet-friendly hotel reservation on Expedia?
