Company info

Our family has been operating Ash's for some 19 years now and we love Karumba and the Gulf region for its pristine and diverse environment, people and opportunities. Photography, fishing, birdwatching and arts/crafts are just some of our interests along with making new friends all the time. Our rooms are self contained and range from larger open plan units with Queen and single bed combo's to a our 2 bedroom cottage and the cabins. A large inground pool, free guest wifi, and Ash's Cafe on site and open 7am to 7pm daily - great coffee, smoothies, thickshakes and milkshakes, meals, snacks, burgers and of course our delicious gulf prawns and fish.

Property info

Free guest Wi-Fi, room service daily between 7am and 7pm, licensed in house dining, laundry facilities, TV, A/C and cooking facilities in each room. Great for singles, couples, families, business travelers and more.. The business has been taking care of visitors to the Gulf for over 30 yrs with ongoing upgrades and improvements along the way. Walking distance to supermarket, Tavern, boat ramp, Karumba airport and the beach - this family owned and operated home away from home can also book fishing and river cruise charters, is the agent for the Trans North Cairns to Karumba bus service and can arrange shuttle pickups and drop-offs to Normanton airport (paid) or free from Karumba airport. VIsit the Les Wilson Barramundi Discovery Centre, take a Sunset cruise or Sunset/Sand Island tour, try a fishing charter or just kick back and relax. Outback by the Sea Film Festival and Music Festival being held this year in September and always something to see and do. Great place for photography, environment and getting away from it all. The Gulf truly is adventurous by Nature..

Neighborhood info

Karumba has a number of attractions including a warm and welcoming small community located where the outback truly does meet the sea with the Norman River on our door step we can walk a few 100 metres to the mouth of this river where it meets the waters of the Gulf of Carpentaria. Recreational fishing is a big part of the attraction for many, however also the bird and animal life, special 1 tide a day marine environment and just the relaxed laid back nature. The newly opened Les Wilson Barramundi Discovery Centre is a must for all visitors - all ages. The commercial fishing industry is one of the main stays and provides the opportunity for delicious local seafood - Barramundi, King Threadfin, Mackerel, Banana - Endeavour and Tiger prawn seasonally and of course mouth watering Gulf mud-crab and more... Karumba is a small community with a big heart and over the years has been the top fundraiser for the Cuppa for Cancer in Queensland - not bad for a town of some 500 residents. Other unique facts - the Gulf is also only 1 of 2 places in the world to annually see cloud formations known as Morning Glory clouds mainly August-November and the unusual 1 tide per day. There's a lot to find out about this area...
